Well, im no prude but i think some of the avatars are too nasty that i wouldnt want my kids/grandkids to see...heh.
I dont see how Alex can keep the kiddies out of Alldeaf, really..or can he??
im curious to know if he really can keep the kiddies out of "penisarium" huh?
Other than that, i dont let nasty avatars bother me....it just the kids i worry about is all.

Hello GalaxyAngel,
Good idea !!!!
May I kindly ask you to show respect and
would you please STAY in the Penisarium ONLY
because that's the only place you can feel
free to express or spread the dirty sicko seed
around yourself there... Please stay away from
General Chat and all other threads
(Yes, you could just stay within Penisarium only)

This would be the best solution ONLY if
you cannot improve or change your avatars/
your signatures/your "high school" comments etc
Can you remove and change/improve
your avatars/signatures/comments etc ?

My Vote for this whole thing is "No" about
these dirty gross abusive avatar/signatures/comments etc

You will see my posting earlier at:
http://www.alldeaf.com/showpost.php?p=475996&postcount=127

I noticed some of these avatars/signatures
showed the lack of class, and the lack of education...
and the lack of respect/moral values
as well as the lack of clean humor...
(Too Gross, Too Disgusting, Too Vulgar,
Abusive and Offensive)

Would you want your children see them ?
Would you want your boss/co-workers see them ?

Some of us know how to have sense of humor
without being "abusive" or gross etc...

I noticed that GalaxyAngel's many avatars and
her comments seem so "high school"
especially with these WILD avatars...
This is so amazing that it actually came
from a Deaf Mother with her kids...
Most of her avatars are more of a
"Sicko Humor". This is the wrong kind
of humor (too gross and turn-off).

I vote that sexual avatars should be eliminated.

If you happen to walk down the street and
you saw someone rape/murder a little girl front of you,
do you allow a rapist/murderer telling you "None of Your Business"
while he still continue doing it right in front of you.
Same thing here, you cannot tell us "Just ignore that rapist" or
"Mind Your Own Business" while it's almost same thing here
on the forum some of you were showing sexual, violence
and abuses. Do you still think that's "funny" with humor ??
Hmm, I'm concerned that many schools would
NOT approve this forum if they ever seen this.

Please be considerate of others and show respect.

I am not taking sides but I agreed with Y.... on for those people.. not just Galaxy.. but others too.. k
 
And, also another thing -- don't forget that the kids can use the pagers ( Sidekicks, etc. ) to access AllDeaf to read everythin' via avatars/signature images. They also can access Penisarium to see everythin' in there. Not just computer ( desktop ), or laptop.
 
My two cents:

I cannot use AllDeaf as a reference site for work or friends if there will be avatars that are not work safe or X-rated.

It has nothing to do with how Deaf people speak; few Deaf adults lisp, some hearing adults lisp, and all kids lisp when they lose their front teeth. No big deal.

And as for so called "light dirty" or arts of avatar/signature images, let Alex decide to see if it is appropriate or not.

Illegal in Kentucky??

I've been here for over a year and have recommended AD to teachers and friends in the past. I generally won't post something that I wouldn't show to my family and friends. This includes my parents who are in their 70s.

Before I got the internet hooked up at my sis' home, I had to go to the public library. There have been times where I didn't check AD for fear of upsetting others. There's even a sign next to the PCs saying that it is illegal to look at porn/explicit material in a public building. I may not get arrested, but could be banned from the library. Banned from the library for me is the same as kicking a kid out of the candy store. It's a heavy price to pay.

Freedom of speech is one thing, but we should still respect others. That's my two cents.

Then don't go into Penisarium while you are at the library :D
 
You know what Eve, you actually started this crap by starting the polls and stirring problems in here. You pushed alot of members away and caused friendships to fall apart because of what you did. you should have talked with Alex in private and tell him you didn't agree with the sexual contents going on in here. Instead you come in here and making polls not one poll.. 2 and now 3. you've got to stop it. nobody had a problem before you came along. you haven't posted in here in a long time and you suddenly come in here and start bitchin'. stop it. you've done enough damage around here. we were actually having a blast til you came in.

By the way.. stop bashing on GA.. come and bash on me. leave GA alone. Everybody is tired of it.. we all want peace and go back to our normal lives Thank you :bye:
 
I told few others and warned few others, since Eve has been created the same polls about idiot and i dont appreciate her by trying to pressure ppls into believe into her.
 
There is tons of reasons why they should be removed .. far better reasons than your reasons on those avatars and such.

We have had enough of them being exposed and so offensive so we only have to voice loud and fight to stop this nonsense infection exposing in this public forum. We won't stop till expect Alex to act and decide what is for the best. But no bashing here ok.

As you know it's pretty much good vs evil situation here. We don't like it either but we have to stand up and speak against those nasty avatars.

Does it increase your "benefit" to keep those nasty avatars? Nah, none really! It's so mind-bogging that you guys don't think it's nasty or offensive for the public in general.

Only the way I can recommend is to have a password for the Penisarium while prohbit those nasty avatars. That will satisfy us all enough.

Agree?

I agree with you about the password in the penisarium..

but

why haven't you said anything about the sexual contents before Eve brought it up? Nobody was complaining til Eve brought it and now its just made Alldeaf worse and i'm sure it's made Alex and the mods more stressful with all the damn bickering in here! I totally agree about having the password done in the penisarium but its going on and on and on.. and there are more enemies coming along and the true colors are coming out.. it's definitely making Alldeaf look really bad now.. compared to a picture in avatar and sigs. :roll: its just a picture, for God's sake!

I hear ya.
But there must be a reason for kicking that kid outta the candy store.
 
There are 3 options favoring against these type of signatures/avatars and only 1 supporting it. This poll is deemed biased and invalid, thus I'm closing it.
