I'm so, so, sorry. I forgot Mericans don't do irony very well. FYI: The debate -started- on negative comments being pulled in the gallery. I have steered clear of the gallery content debate because a) it's most definitely not my cup of tea and b)I find most of the kiddie porn debates at rendo fairly tedious; I've yet to read a good debate that didnt deflate into some animal farm barn mentality. (As in Orwell, not Hotmail) My comment was intended to take the piss out of the dimwitted comment inferring that Europeans see naked children as portrayed in the imagery as "normal, and that we're relaxed about it" - Nothing else. I put it in the same category as us Scandinavians being so horny we fuck polar bears in the street. So, back to the beginning - I don't think comments, even trolling ones should be removed unless a direct violation of ToS, and I DO believe in the validity of at times nasty, even trolling questions. Even if I also do think a trolling question shouldnt always be answered. The gallery comment page asks you to upload helpful comments. Lets turn it upside down and start a crusade on the "oh - kewl!!" school of artistic commentary - it's not very helpful to have THAT in your gallery either. 'k ? ~S
