I don't agree with censorship, there are plenty of options to censor things yourself. It's not like the avatars are X rated, if you don't like it, there are numerous means to do something about it yourself.

When I hear "I'm at work...", any argument\issue you have flies right out the window.

I guess you take this too much at heart.  Sorry if we insult you by reading MAACA during lunch time!  The at work thing is only used as an example.  I stand by what I said whether at home or at work.  Nobody has to do anything if they don't want to, the question was asked and I answered it.  I don't want to remove the avatars since I like seeing them. Some are funny etc.  

And you are absolutely right that if I don't like it I can always not read it at work but it is for me to decide.

Keep on playing

Whatever guys, it's just a simple request....

P.S. your "adult" avatars don't make you cool/interesting/edgy, despite what you may think

Some good points:

#1 - At work: I made a point to mention DURING BREAKS .  Why is it viewed wrong to access Maaca during my lunch break?  FYI, I am paid 7.5 hours and I'm at work for 8. I am not paid for my lunch time, thus why I don't feel any guilt here.

#2 - Adjusting avatar option.  This is a very valid response; my answer?  Didn't even know the option was there!  In saying that, I don't believe my question is necessarily wrong, Avatar's are cool and add personality to the site and it's a pity I would have to remove all due to a couple.

#3 - adblock:  Unfortunately, many of us have work pc's hooked to a closed network system with IE as our browser.  We can't install any add-ons, so this isn't a solution for us.  Good suggestion though.

My intent is not to pick on anyone for their choices; its primary purpose was to respond to a PM I received stating "you are the only one who complained" and therefore assuming since no one else is, then it's not a problem.  I'm sure the sender is telling the truth, no one else has voiced their concerns. But I attest this does no mean "no one cares" and this thread is put forth to question the membership and see how they feel.  That's it in a nutshell.

Thought it was a question? not a request... If it were an actual request I might consider it...
And yes my avatar does not make me cool or edgy or even interesting,  I already have that all covered by just living in London!

I use my avatar as a reminder of why I love my wife, even when's she's being a b****

Umm... You are at work you should be working...

You are on break... surfing I suppose thats OK I don't know company policy... I am not sure my avatar would be considered PrOn, I get what you are saying in theory. There are options for turning it off though...I am sorry if my wife offends anyone, I have used her for many years on here and cgcc
I am not changing now, sorry reality is I am offended by creepy frogs, priate flags, and space in general but I deal with it.  

B1B@@BIES the Originator, Not the Imitator  

Some are probably offended, others are not. I would think some may feel there is a difference between cleavage, and full blown nudity but that's for each to decide.

double post @#$@#%!@#

Good discussions folks, keep it coming.

Quoted from Hippochrome

Considering that most members have acceptable ones...Its not so hard to ask that we just keep them all family/work safe.

Understood, just pointing out that there is an option available if people don't want to change theirs, because I doubt they will.

Same here except it is when I hear stuff like "I don't agree with censorship" .. you are on a site that is censored !!

and "When I hear "I'm at work...", any argument\issue you have flies right out the window" .. again no one can tell me what I can say but I can shut out anything I wish ...  what dribble.

If you're going to quote me, at least have the ability to form your own opinion too in response, instead of just insulting mine. My quoted response was my opinion...not an insult of what I quoted.

I could attack your post too, but I won't stoop to your level and I'm far more vicious.

Un huh....heard you the first time "my wife, my wife, boobies boobies, censorship bad"

I'm sure a quick vote on MAACA would settle what the majority wants....

What majority rules?!?! That's not democratic...I feel censored, waaaa waaaa waaaa.

p.p.s. If you want to feel cool/interesting/edgy maybe you should try this as an avatar....lol

I approve of Ken's Avatar and actually sent it around my office rather than trying to hide it!
