    At the end of the day everyone has their limits. What may suit you just fine may not suit another. And hence why it must be discussed and settled one way or another.
    Actually most of those pics really wouldn't bother me, I was just saying they've already been addressed, or at least I think they have, but yes I agree. It's nice that we can discuss these things instead of abiding by a single persons manifesto. We should all be grateful for that and I think most of us are.

    Isn't there some feature to send a mass PM or something? Couldn't it be put at the top of every page like some of the announcements are?

    However, if you are going to use a poll as a basis for making your decisions, it seems more could be done to get a true representation of OPINIONS before making a new rule.

    We have 689 members (with nearly 400 active) and yet we have a poll where only 45 people vote. That doesn't even qualify as a quorum.
    I don't use polls, I have stated that time and again. I only take into account responses in a thread, which is why you don't see me creating polls in Town Hall threads.

    No, there is no mass PM that I am aware of, only the ability to email every member, but I don't think it is appropriate to email every member.

    On issues I consider extremely important, like the banning procedures, I post threads in the four main forums, requesting people visit the thread and provide input. Beyond that, there is little I can do.

    At a certain point, it is like whether or not a person is going to visit a polling station and be part of the process, or just complain about the results later.

    Out of context, I wouldn't even begin to say. If we introduce a no corpse rule, then I would say the mods, and I will have to interpret images on a case by case basis and see if they violate the spirit of the rule.

    It is impossible to define every type of image in a rule. At a certain point common sense and good taste should take over, and then the mods have step in when needed.

    I understand, and am not posting this to start any kind of "stir", but if others are allowed to post pictures that are "offensive" to some members, can we post something like this?

    The principle still applies tned.

    Why not send an email to all members when it's a policy change? And, I would consider rules extremely important, but that's just me.

    Thanks for all you do.

    I understand, and I'll give it some thought. I would like as much feedback as possible, but I think if we go the email route it would have to be infrequent, maybe notifying members about multiple discussions at one time.

    As I said, it is all about context. If your reason is to try and piss off the commie/che lovers, then I would say no, it isn't ok.

    OK. Now answer me this: Said members (commie/che lovers) purposly have his (or another commie/murderer) as their avatar and/or signature, and the sole purpose is to piss off the AMERICAN's that post on this site.

    Is that OK?

    Again, Tned, I'm not trying to stir the pot, and am just looking for answers as to what is acceptable, and what is not. Behavior wise...

    I've often thought of running for office, but alas, might have too many "skeletons" in my closet I'm afraid.
