You only consider to be "whining" because you do not agree with what was stated. You are biased even if you are blind to believe you are doing so. Yes you are a post *****. No I do not like you.

What are you going to do, send me a dirty PM? I suggest you take it there before you start making immature threats, Dad...

I believe it was you who lowered the maturity level in here numerous times before VO's post. None of us have called you any names and yet you continued to scream and shout like this was a brawl at recess (which is strangely how the FI forum previously behaved - I can understand why you would still be of that mentality).

I felt that VO and I had a reasonable opinion about it if we're biased

You are not a biased person.

Most of you identify yourself with your avatar in one way or another, and since you're not losing it (just not visible to you and you only) your sense of identity is here to stay and be seen by other members.
Just as other's would still be able to identify us, with our function disabled, we still would like the comfort of seeing their avatar also. Personally, I only participate in this forum during work hours, so I'm stuck like chuck...

Things can always go both ways, remember that. Just like you want them to do something and shut up, they can tell you to do the same.
Good point...

Unfortunately large corporations view "leisure internet surfing" and "compromising images" as two different issues, with 2 different disipline levels. Casual surfing will not cause an employer to take disiplinary action. Causual surfing, while completing daily task on time, will also not cause disiplinary action. Most individuals learn how to balance work and internet surfing accordingly, in order to fly under the radar. However, phonography or compromising images has no grey area. It's disiplinary action is immediate work termination.

I beg to differ. You started this whole debate with this comment. Perhaps you should consider what you're starting before you take such a snide and immature stance on a subject. Who's really immature?

As I said, we go back to the "pot, kettle, black" mentality.

I dont think he was insulting you, although he was rubbing it in a little.

You have consistantly insulted the people who post in OT. You have called names. You have been generally disrespectful. I dont think that the two are equal.

+1. insult taurran? no. rub it in? yes.

It has been considered and I stand by the fact that it is not your choice to tell me what to do while I am at work. There are some people who seem to have a personal bias (vendetta, even) against people viewing from work using words like "unproductive" and "lazy" to refer those of us who use our spare time to browse the web. Though I don't owe you an explanation if you must know my work comes and goes in spurts. If I finish my work early I have to stay here regardless so why not browse my favorite forum?

Your future response:

Unfortunately for you my friend NSFW is NSFW. The precedent has been set so you can either abide from it or take a voluntary vacation because God forbid you can't put a rack in your avatar.

Really. First time I've heard that. Let's cap this one up, VO is a "whiner" because he posts well thought out constructive debatable material.

Ya wanna see some whinning chit? Here's some whinning chit.

Thanks for contributing to the pussification of this forum. Im glad you weren't inconvenienced by having to disable avatars now.

I vote that since we've taken this into action, we disallow any photos that contain human skin, including those of models posing on cars (such as the ones in every car mag found on every magazine stand in america). These avatars are nothing worse.

In the meantime, I've changed my avatar to something your virgin eyes can handle. Hopefully you and your boss are not offended by animated Disney cleavage.

Of course it's about your DNF "crew" look at your avatars. You all identify yourselves by them, and spend however many hours making them. That's why you REFUSE to turn avatars off. Saying otherwise is just being blind to underlying facts. Your arguments are totally non-objective as they are totally self serving.

And yes, the majority of the off-topic post ***** crew could care less about automotive discussion. A large portion of them don't even own Z's.


I LOVE how people turn their own whining and bitching about rated-PG avatars and being called on it, into "I'm rubber, you're glue". I could care less about my own avatar, but it's the principal of people being overly sensitive, complaining, and getting their way that ticks me off. People like you are a BIG problem with this country today.

I bet you'd try to sue my350z if you got fired for web browsing at work, too...
^^ Now that is some whinning chit right there.

Send you a dirty PM? Son, I don't need to send you a PM. You should already know how I operate. I'll pwnd you right here on the open forum until your tail is so far up your a$$ you'd need a can opener to pry that chit out..

I'm failing to see what you've accomplished by posting those quotes. You and your DNF "boyz" are just having a little circle jerk right now. Let me know when you're done beating your e-chest and are ready to come down to earth.

All of these guys are awfully brave when they have their "DNF crew" hooting and cheering them on. You know what they say... safety in numbers.

i still don't get what the DNF guys [who, i agree, are a bit silly with their strength-in-numbers attitude at times] have to do with the issue at hand.

youre the only one to mention DNF. NO ONE has said, this is the DNF theory or POV.

theyre all personal opinions. i think you went a tad over board over a tiny picture.

youre taking this waaaay to serious. no one is 'hooting & cheering' anyone on dude.

They are overly protective about the "right" to view each other's custom avatars, nothing more. See the mod's previous post and their refusal to take his suggestion.
