tailoring 2+2 to make it work-friendly?

[cnfuzzd]

Note, this is not about 2+2 moderating the content hosted on its website. this is obviously legit, as the 2+2 name is all over the place here, and content placed on these boards could reflect on the brand. This is solely to guage the reaction of OOTopia when posed the following question....

Noone should have to cater to a small crowd becuase they want to view this board during the time they should be working. You can turn off all avatars, or you can view the opera fan club message board for those w/ vaginas.

I was just wondering...no one has to do anything but I remember a few weeks ago it wasnt like that haha

It's not your fault babe, other people have come out and downright complained about them.

I don't care at all about semi nude women, or avatars. Semi nude won't get me in trouble and I can block avatars. but nudity just ain't cool. Posting a link takes as much time and effort as posting a pic.

Agree 100% there is a line and that is it.

Note: this poll should not include discussions of nudity. nudity does not belong on this forum. Postin naked chicks is not only, i think, an offense which will get you banned, but also opens up a host of legal issues that 2+2 probably doesnt want to deal with. NO NUDITY!!!

NSFW posts/threads should be clearly labeled as such, and people at work should browse with avatars turned off, or with graphics disabled entirely. Or they can browse in threaded mode and avoid threads/posts tagged NSFW. It's really not up to us to make a free-wheeling gambling website safe for people at work or with children, in my opinion. Of course, I could be totallay biased, as I am at home right now and have no children as far as I know.

I really don't see how that right there is to much to ask either. [censored], there might even be people on here who don't want porn on their home computer(not me of course), but still.

the various avatar complaints and what not that people have been making. It seemed like a divisive issue, so i thought i would poll on it.

I think it's fine, I mean OOTia was built on hot women, beer, and movies, if a few people can't handle it, then they don't need to visit. There aren't nudie pictures in any of the other forums. And I agree with Salt that if the picture is nude then post a like and a warning, that way if you don't want to look you don't have to.

My avatar seems to be one of the ones in question. As I've stated elsewhere I'm not sure why it's so problematic. It's definitely no worse than some of the Ms. OOT/Hott women poll pics. There's no nudity. She's clothed. No nipples showing.

I personally thought the "favorite pose" pics were over the line, but I don't belive my avatar is. Now I'm not just trying to be difficult here. And I don't want to get people in trouble. I'm sensitive to the issue. But if a clothed female will get you in trouble then I really think I think you should just turn off avatars for yourself rather than expect other people to change them.

I turned off avatars rather than continue to rage against the boobies, but there's a difference between the hot women polls and a boobie avatar.

I can choose not to view the hot women threads at work (and I don't), but I never know when I'm going to see your boobies because I use flat mode.
