Where on the image Misfit posted does it show the author's name? I am familiar with Lisner's work (which is sexually provocative) but I see no evidence of this being his work... |

....................your complaint about one without acknowledging the same criticism of your own simply proves that your opinion is really just bias against the poster. Not at all. I didn't remove your post (you should know that if you read the moderation notice), but since I quoted your post, my post was hidden too. I edited out what was deemed against the rules, and asked that the other moderator unhide my response, at his discretion. Your meaning was not changed, I only took out your description of an "external dispute". But feel free to back out of you position by claiming that I changed the meaning of your post. I never really expected any of you to apologize or admit fault anyway. |

I haven't received any moderation notice, only noticed it was gone. Why do you have an obsession about collecting apologies? |

I think you are too literal a person to understand my answer so I won't bother trying to explain. Account frozen... |

Have no idea. Why should I know? I see a drawing of a young girl with a lollipop, and with some words on about censorship. Which this thread is about. So, your point is? "I'm trying to maintain a shred of dignity in this world." - Me |

Pete - it is Linsner's work - believe me . . . though as you know = it wouldn't be 'Kid-Friendly' for me to Post any links - due to the nature of said works i don't 'personally' have anything against his work - it's just that it shouldn't be on the Boards since it's against the Rules to Post such Links i thought i'd get edited based on the fact that i said his name . . . [edit] i'll take a chance with this one:

Yes I do. It is irrelevant to the post, picture and message. And as Blurf pointed out, it is not obvious that Linsner is even associated with this post, except that you seem to think it, so how could "who he is" affect any decision to keep or delete the picture? By the way, I am "defending" Es99/Mystique's avatar also. Neither of the images (key word images) are demeaning or offensive. But one is being attacked because it was posted by someone you (plural) don't like, while the other is left alone because it is the avatar of someone you do like. And that is hypocrisy. |

Pete - it is Linsner's work - believe me . . . though as you know = it wouldn't be 'Kid-Friendly' for me to Post any links - due to the nature of said works Sorry Richard --there is no confirmation this is his work. It looks similar to some other cartoonists I've seen. IF it was from him--that alone wouldn't make the picture against the rules. |

Maybe not, but I am sure others here are interested in how you see the character Mystique as a role model for women. "I'm trying to maintain a shred of dignity in this world." - Me |

Richard--the picture itself does not violate the rules--despite who the author is. |

Not at all. I didn't remove your post (you should know that if you read the moderation notice), but since I quoted your post, my post was hidden too.

I never really expected any of you to apologize or admit fault anyway. Oh, come on poopsie, it's good for your soul. When you are wrong, as you so obviously are, a good apology will keep you humble. But I don't really care one way or the other if you apologise, since your statements are generally worthless or laughable. I'm just pointing out to all those who read these threads that your pride has affected your point of view. That makes your arguments, at the least, suspect. |

well - i guess that's it then - IF the Rules allow THAT - then it's rather obvious that i don't understand the Rules (or the Grammatical sense of the Word - Rules) ;)) > i have to make dinner for mi lady - gotta roll . . . BOINC Wiki . . . Science Status Page . . . |

I too fail to see how the image violates any rules....but then again, I don't see how my previous signature with rotating images of women in bathing suits violated the rules either...but that smack down came from further up the ladder than the mods... |

I see a drawing of a young girl with a lollipop I thought we determined that the 'object of controversy' was a popsicle... ;) It may not be 1984 but George Orwell sure did see the future . . . |
