Gross Out Pics Being Posted On the Site

Alright I'll be the party poop, fuddy duddy and lodge the complaint.

Please moderators for petes sake can we get rid of the pics posted intentionally to gross people out? I'm talking about crap that has cat, boo, sh*t to do with Prince being posted in the Prince Forum. It's not cute, nor funny. Nothing worse that just scrolling to the next topic and seeing some BS that's enough to make you vomit. And then having people repost the crap over and over again when they reply.

Weeeelllll.....we (the mods) can't be everywhere, so if you see something that you think really should not be there, report it.

I think gross out pics posted just to get a shock-type reaction, shouldn't be allowed.

I also think that the Org has always been on the "edge" when it comes to threads and members... that's why it's such a cool place to hang.

No it's not HouseQuake (thank God), nor is it the NPGMC (thank God again)!

It's the ORG!!!

We've always expected the unexpected here.

Some photos in a topic that's already on the borderline must/should/could/might be shown... others hoping to get a reaction simply by it being shoved in your face is another thing.

That's why there's this link, see... it's a little button on the bottom of all threads and posts... it says "report post to moderator", etc. If something is not in the best interest of the Org, let us know! We promise to check it out and make a decision.

That's what we do.

You may get your wish and the item may be removed. You may not get your wish, and the item remains... but we do promise to check it out.

God, I love this place! mr.green I really do!

There's a link on every post, titles 'report to moderator'. Use it. That's how we get notified of troublesome material.

You didn't even include a link, so I have no idea what you're referring to. There's approximately 3000 new posts each day, so a link is kind of helpful.

And remove the line of ~~~'s from your sig please.

I know about the report a post button, etc, etc. However, since each forum is moderated I (incorrectly) assumed that at least one of the moderators would know what I'm talking about. Especially, since some of them reply to some of the posts.

Ben,
I'm really not trying to be an ass or imply that you personally should review every single post made to the site. That would be preposterous. And thanks for taking the time to personally respond to my post. To be specific they're the "Prince's Toenails" and "Prince's Feet" posts and such.

To The Rest of the Peanut Gallery, that chose to try and explain away what amounts to spam I'll say it again, this is one of the reasons why a lot of the former regular posters that actually had something to say do not visit this site any longer.

Still, use the proper tool please--report to mod actually creates a RECORD of someone complaining about it, with the complaint, attached to the thread. And, it shows up in such a way that multiple mods will be alerted to the complaint. Also, I can audit what happens...
