Queue someone posting up porn in a reply :bang:

I'd like to ask why, when there are obviously moderators visiting this thread this image is still on here - bad enough it is used as someone's avatar - is this forum female friendly or not? Or am I just :bang:

 

 

Now deleted Vik :)

Sorry that image was not removed before now, the post count today must be astronomical - I've been trying to keep pace much of the day - its like a fulltime (unpaid) job - just pm the team if something similar occurs and hopefully there will be quicker action. Its the usual issue of where peoples boundaries lie in their desire to have a bit of laugh and as we frequently see there is wide interpretation on that score that we too get wrong at times, as you know. ;):blush:

Not wanting to hijack the thread, but can I just say that I think that those who have taken on the role as moderator have been doing an excellent job in a sometimes challenging situation for the last four years. I for one would like to express my gratitude to them all for running a first-class forum.

 

+1, but flattery isnt going to give you a mod invite :teeth::lol:

Ummm, really?! Thought we all had that :blush::lol: Obviously this job is unpaid though ;)

+1 - this is why we struggle with all the Off Topic stuff, its just too much for us to read - and as you have seen first hand, its detremetal to the forum.

Back from the pub, and probably going to get shot down in flames for this but......

 

...do we have any female moderators on the forum? Looking at the "porn" issue in the thread, maybe a view from those potentially more susceptible to some of the sexually risqué stuff that gets posted might be an idea? We have a fair few female members now and it might be something to look at in the future...... this is the 21st century after all :console:

 

(and I'm not trying to be anti-sexist, or sexist or whatever PC claptrap we have to put up with these days, just a thought)

 

My own personal view is that the mods do a great job, not helped by some of the ignoramuses who treat this place like a kindergarten.

 

(As I said, back from the pub......)

Its ok bud but a point well made. We are modern men and happy to delete anything that is borderline. :)

And we are on the lookout for anyone who meets the criteria. We have considered female members as mods but havent found one to meet all the criteria and spend enough time on the forum. When one does though, rest assured they will be offered the post :thumbs:

In the interest of fairness, the shockingly offensive "porn" can be found here.

Just so that the thread makes sense for anyone reading. ;)

My comment wasn't aimed at that particular picture (which I actually found very artistic) - it was more the general levels of debasement some of the threads fall to at times from certain parties....

+1 - mine too was aimed at the level chat/spam making mods lives hard not the pic in question :)

I didn't say it was shockingly offensive! I have seen and shared a lot worse - but there's a time and place.

Do we have to go over this subject again.......its a car forum.....family friendly......for enthusiasts....... :bang:

 

And Chris......my point was that mods had visited the page while the image was up but it remained there......please don't use this as an opportunity to spam bang :)

Nix would be ideal........she's organised an extremely succesful meet, had her zed for three years and moderated on another forum - TBH claiming no female meets 'criteria' is a bit of an insult to both of us.....and Immy actually.......but then we don't live our entire lives online

 

Dummy well and truly spat now :shrug: Apols to anyone running for cover.

Do you think that Admins/Mods should be voted for?
