LOL. Doesn't renderosity's TOS prohibit ''personal attacks'' here? WINK. I'm a John McCain supporter, by the way. LOL.

I 'agree' with you, kind soul, that Renderosity is a 'private' board and they have the right, as such, to run it in any way, shape or manner as 'they' see fit. Can you and I agree on even that? LOL.

My point that I made earlier was not questioning their right to do so. Please, don't inadvertently or directly state otherwise on my behalf. Much appreciated.

My comments above were supportive of free speech and of another poster's 'suggestion' for an 'alternative' OT forum where all could go to on a ''voluntary'' basis. IF renderosity was so interested. I find it quite interesting that you seem to be speaking for Renderosity, itself. I think they are sufficiently more than capable to speak for themselves, imho.

I also, personally, make a deep distinction between places the ''public'' is ''forced'' to watch/read/see things that might be somehow offensive to one, versus a 'voluntary' and ''over 18'' enter at your own risk situation. For you to try to compare someone yelling in someone's face in public things not appreciated or nice, versus people going to a 'known' site with 'voluntary' enter only rules and regulations, are two completely different situations, imho.

My point above was simply if you, or anyone here, doesn't like my works posted, no one is forcing you to click onto them as to my or anyone else's uploads. If I find someone's works offensive to me or against my belief systems, I simply do not click onto and view/visit them anylonger. Problem solved, imho.

Peace & Love dear soul. To each his own. Most respectfully, TallPockets.
