What do you, the crotch zombie core, consider to be shock images? I know its hard to define what really is a shock picture, because people (for obvious reasons) don’t think the same things and thus have difrent opinions about the same subjects. For instance, the Saddam Goatse picture was not ofensive to TUSBWEETIE, nor to the general comunity, but it was clbumified as shock picture by some other moderator/admin. So the main question is how can I say for sure that the picture A, B or C won’t be considered a shock picture to someone? I know asking the mods wont help, because they might say “That picture is ok” but then some other mods sees the picture and bans you. Tell us your toughts about it. And try to find ways to clbumify the pictures has shock or good to post. (Remeber you wrote Im not easily ofended when you first started this game) |

Very good question. I, for one, think the Holocaust pics people post for LOLs are more shock than goatse or tubgirl, but obviously the site’s standards are different than mine. Not a problem, necessarily, but there should be some clarification. |

I agree with that, I find more ofensive a picture of a hanged african (for istance this one is posted in ayn rands and the person who did is not banned), copared to a picture of a guy streching is bum and a guy poping out. I find that funny. And you can’t even see the streched bum. |

“I’m not easily offended” should p much negate any shock clbumification. If you weren’t easily offended, why would the picture shock you? |

Still I agree. The shock value of a picture is highly subjective. |

It’s “I’m not easily offended”, not “I’m never offended by anything”. This game contains offensive (to some) language and imagery, that’s why there’s a warning at the start of it. It doesn’t mean anything goes. |

While I see your point, there’s a difference between “Not easily offended” and “Not offended at all”.
I like to consider myself difficult to offend, but if someone were to post an image of a 5 year old girl getting raped I would likely get offended just a bit. |

Like, for me, goatse or whatnot is fine, but when a friend sent me a cartoon of the two towers smoking and a big heart in the background, while one said, “I’m falling for you!”
And that was probably one of the most offensive things I’ve ever seen in my life. |

Another point is how can pics that everyone’s seen before be shocking? I’ve seen that so many times it doesn’t bother me. You allow the posting of tons of porn, some of which is gross porn, and then you arbitrarily decide which clbumifies as “shock.” The “shocking” part of Goatse was covered up. What if I posted a pic of a colonoscopy? You’re looking at the same thing, but it’s medical – is that shock? Is lemonparty shock? I’d rather see that than fat people porn. What my av came from was shock and the poster didn’t get banned for it. Nicco’s posting career is forever tarnished even though he would have been a great mod. Free Nicco. Free Goatse. |

Womans could find offensive the posts of naked ladies. I sure find more shoking the way some people keep posting underage sexualized pictures, that is by far more repulsive than a tubgirl or a goatse. And its actualy a federal crime. |

I agree. Several times I’ve been in IDC with people talking about sexploits with little children or something, and I find it difficult to believe that pedophilia/discussions of such is less offensive that a ridiculous pic of Saddam. |

Actually lemonparty does not count as a shock image according to the rules. It’s just nudity (and gay sex, which is not bannable). Funnily enough lemonparty in fact is what most people would clbumify as a clbumic shock site. |

Shopped, for that matter, onto a fully consenting of legal age man’s grotesquely spread rectum. It may be extreme, but you certainly can’t say that what goatse dude did was illegal. |

Goatse is just nudity too, with a little gaping thrown in for good measure. |

So we are alowed to post picture of old mans deseperate for some cash, so they took some pictures of themself having gay sex to get enough money be able to eat, but we cant post a guy who streches his bum for fun, and we can either make a crappy photoshoped picture of that same guy hidding his bum with a head to make things look funny. |

If it involves any type of graphic violence or death. If it involves any type of extreme bodily function. These are definitely on the ‘shock’ side. Yes, I’ve seen goatse many times. I’ve seen the ‘pain’ pictures. It’s still offensive.
Other pictures are grey-area. Bush wearing a goatse hat, since you don’t see anything really graphic, that’s funny, but mildly offensive.
The argument that agreeing that “I am not easily offended” is free reign for anything and everything is absolute bunk. I’ve personally seen a lot of graphic stuff IRL, but that doesn’t make it any less offensive.
This is simply splitting hairs and trying to determine just how far the envelope can be pushed. That’s not the point of the non-RP forums. If you don’t want to risk getting in trouble, then err on the side of caution, and save that new picture of Hitler making out with Jesus for the Trollhole.
If it distracts or detracts from the purpose of the forum or the thread, then don’t post it, whether it’s a shock image or not. |

I am not easily offended.
Its just a picture, on the internet. Idk, I guess that can get some people really riled up, but I know it’s just not that big of a deal to me. Some things just kind of come with the internet, you don’t have to agree with them, or like them. Adapt edited this message on 02/03/2009 4:53PM |
