Disallow pornography as avatars/sigs

[Mario_Rinna]

Something like this?

Estonian folklore?

Estonian folklore?

Kalevipoeg, Alevipoeg and Sulevipoeg.

I dont support this.
Do you know what pornography is? Its not a girl in a bikini sticking her ass into the camera. Pornography is explicit material showing of private body parts, bare.
I have never seen an avatar like that here

I borrow his words

[SugarD]

I think what was meant in this topic was the words "sexually suggestive", rather than "pornography".

I have to agree with the original poster. I, myself, are 21 years old, and it doesn't bother me personally, but I know there are many underage people and female users in this community that are bothered by such images.

Also:

8.   Argonath recognizes that a part of the community is underage. There for the following shall be prohibited:
c.   Explicit sexual content. While within roleplay and discussion a certain freedom is granted, the underage community should be protected from eplicit sexual actions or content.

So technically speaking, any of these images used to promote sexual content are already disallowed, such as the image above with the two men touching the third one sexually. Images of things like girls in bikinis, as long as they aren't meant to be displayed in sexual ways, would still be allowed under the Vision.

Any indecent exposure or half naked should not be allowed at all. It encourages users to search for pornography in the internet especially it usually affects under-age users. As for many users, they're offended with the pictures that displayed a half-naked girls as their parents disallowed them to have this in their internet.

This shit has never been allowed. If you see such a sig, click "report to moderator", type in "innapropriate sig/avatar", click enter and be on your way.
The server admins used to report all of them to the forum admins via a special topic and they were then removed very quickly. Using Report to moderator is just as effective.

Can this topic be locked already?

No reason why the topic needs to be locked therefore it will remain.

Bullshit, This is a gaming community that runs a game rated 18+. Bullshit topic is bullshit. And yeah, watching such avatars/sigs won't encourage you to watch porn. If you're naughty, you will watch porn, no matter if you have ever seen a girl in bikini.

So what are you saying?Letting those irresponsible players to have a pornographic signature, while there're underage players there, even more than above age?

1. That actually depends on your country and their definition of ratings. In the United States it's 17+.
2. The Argonath Vision specifically prohibits pornography and explicit sexual content.
3. You are correct that people will watch porn in some cases regardless of what they see, but that is only due to the influences in society around them. We shouldn't encourage (or discourage) people to make choices that are of their own, or their family's. They are raising their children and living their lives, not us. We are just here to interact with one another and have fun.

Why the fuck are you all offended by YOUR OWN ANATOMY?
