Quote - I agree that there are some issues forumites have no business being a part of... but at the same time, guys, look at what happened with the EULA at Artzone. That got changed pretty quick because a handful of people made enough noise. I doubt DAZ stopped and conducted a poll to see which way the wind was blowing on the issue - it was changed literally over a weekend.

Insofar as this issue, all we're hearing is one small part of a much larger discussion that could have larger ramifications down the road. If you folks are all content to let someone else make the decision for you, I'll let it drop... but it does seem a bit odd that an issue like this, one that is based more on suspicion and fear of what might happen, is one that we should just say, "Fine, okay, whatever." Yep, not my site. My financial stake here is limited to what I buy on occasion in the store, so I guess in the Grand Scheme of Things (TM) that aint much. But I repeat: I find it pretty sad to see places like this and FW and all the other Poser sites caving in to some strange nameless fear that has no statistical proof to back itself up. It's just sitting there, all shapeless and vague. But we're scared to death of it.

Well, I for one don't have such a burning desire to see child nudity that it bothers me a great deal that it's not allowed around here.
Not too long ago there was a case here in california where some creep molested a two-year old baby... so, who knows what kind of deviants exist out there, and what it is they get off on. I don't mind at all that places like rendo are playing it safe.
Also, I'm confident that places like rendo are not so extreme that they will go around telling what to think or engae in types of censorships that will seriously violate my rights.

Actually, the more sexual or potentially sexual displays on rendo are toned down, the more exposure real art might get around here.

No, I don't get flabergasted by a naked three year old running around the house. At the same time, I wouldn't let the same three year old run around the neighborhood streets naked, or in front of a webcam. Internet is the neighborhood street, even if you're lulled in the false sense of security by the computer sitting inside your house.
