Of course children should be allowed in the forums So by this, you mean that children should also be allowed to view nudity? Therefore, parents must decide if they want their children to be able to access it, instead of the site and all the members having to jump through hoops to please them I dont believe that anyone is asking members to do anything {they cant anyway as far as programming goes} but check a box when something contains nudity. Thats all members are 'required' to do..and that is already been incorporated into the site..so its not asking members to jump thru any 'hoops' that they aren't already jumping thru. All that is being asked here of the site, is for the programmers to incorporate the 'same filter that is already here' into the forums like it is everywhere else. There was no reason to bash parents who dont wish their children to see nudity..the parents are trying to raise their kids as they think it should be done..there is no reason to call them 'bad parents' just because they dont raise theirs as you or anyone else would. There are no 'perfect parents'...we just all do as best we can. @TerraDreamer: dont punish the majority here with further censuring because you cant exercise common sense either for yourself or for your children. Again, nobody is asking for any kind of censorship here from members who wish to view these images or even post them..why should the ones who 'do not' want to view it..HAVE TO?? Why should the ones who dont want to view it, HAVE TO go someplace else?? Simply put, they shouldnt HAVE TO. There are ALREADY filters in place on this site. There are ALREADY children on this site, learning. There are ALREADY parents using the nudity filter so their children can continue learning without having to view certain things. ALL that is asked for here is THE SAME FILTER to be incorporated into the forums...it doesnt stop ANYONE from viewing or posting nudity containing images unless they tic that box. What I don't understand is, why is the OP viewing a thread dealing with a subject he or she finds offensive in the first place For beginners, I never said nudity bothers me, nor offends me...I view it all the time. There are however times when I 'prefer' not to see it. And I should have the same rights as those who 'prefer' TO see it... Secondly, I was following a thread that interested me..doesn't mean I wanted to be assaulted with gragantuan boobs in my face...altho it was 'bound to happen'...and even tho it 'was bound to happen' doesnt mean I 'should have been ready'..I had the filter set to 'on'...IF the filter had been incorporated into the forums as it is everywhere else around here {which makes sense to me, apparently not to others} I would not have started THIS thread. I wont be told to shut up, back off, or 'go someplace else' just because its not 'the popular' topic. RR may ban me if they wish, but...there ya go. Its a legit question, and I asked it 'here' instead of a private email because others would probably like to hear the answers as well.
