Pictures.

Youthnoise, we know you're harbouring them. Hand them over. What's your ransom? What will it take to get our personal pictures back?

I wanted to say some cuss words are used in important classic English literature. Of course, it's some words, not every one of them. Just the less harsh ones.

And remember, some of these words are "wrong" because society gave them a taboo meaning. In truth, they have no malicious meaning, such as the one meaning female dog....

It's ok Sunset... I am busy with my xang for a while... and no, i don't want to argue. I ws just posting what i felt about cuss words.

Please don't make this hateful!

Sorry, depressedwavemaster, I would never make this hateful. EVER. I just want to clarify some things.

jam, so many people cuss nowadays, that 'bad words' are basically apart of the everyday English language. YN cant ban people for cussing, its against freedom of speech.

Ok, i totally get your point. It is part of the English language. But if it is, why does YN censor it??? and why do mothers don't want their children to hear it?? If it is so acceptable to the point wherein you said that so many people cuss nowadays, tell me, why censor it??? Are you all playing "I am innocent?" Because in my eyes, even if you censor it, no matter how many stars you place to cover those words, they are still OBVIOUS that those are cuss words. So, why not just take out the rule in Rules of Play :Posting, transmitting, promoting, distributing or facilitating the distribution of any content that is obscene, sexually explicit, vulgar or pornographic, or soliciting sexually explicit photographs or text from other NOISEmakers. Keep it clean.
(this one) and get it over with. Because I don't find it "clean" to cuss. It is just like some kid of person with bad breeding or something.

Eh, sorry.

Celtic is right. If we were all banned for our imperfections, such as cussing, this site would cease to exist and the world would freeze over.

Yeah right!! If people will not adhere to their own rules if there ARE rules, then maybe it is time, the world shouldn't have rules anymore. Besides, why was i banned when everyone here has also insulted at least someone or many people???? I may not cuss, but yes, i hve done some bad things... But how about you all??? You cuss and you didn't get banned. And let me tell you, that asteriks thing??? That is so lame... It is like playing the game of "I am innocent" Really. If everyone here cusses, who are you protecting from those cuss words anyway???? KIDS???? HA! Even teens younger than 15 are so KNOWLEDGEABLE about cussing. Really. If the mods are so intent on censoring, maybe they really should ban those people who cuss. Because how can th rule of "NO cussing" and "limit your vulgar words" flourish if you re just going to tolerate it???

I know, Lissa. It was worth a try, though. Maybe I should compile a disguise.

And the 18 idea is great. I liketh it.

Sunset and yogore, I'll have to check with the the team about posting personal photos if you are over 18.

dwm, you had mentioned something about a bob in the notification I had gotten but it was a photo of you that was in there... sorry

Bob? I remember about you talking about a Bob... :shrugs:
-Sunset

And no it wasn't! It was of Bob. (I said bob before, right?)

Yeah, Lissa, is the 18 thing right?

Lissa, I was right about the 18 thing, wasn't I?

Once I turn 18 next month I can show my picture. Sweet.

Thats not fair, I wont be 18 for another 3 years. We should be able to post our pictures if we like, its our life we're putting in 'danger.' But, YN is just covering their ***.
-Sunset

I've released all photos that did not have personal photos in them. I did get one from you dwm but the attached photo was a photo of you.

It's also possible that for some reason I may not have gotten the notification, in which case, please resubmit the photo.

Thanks

Yeah I never about it either. It is actually rather smart and a safe approach. It just means that they DO care for us after all!

Wait. No they don't. They would be here if they did.

It'll be interesting to hear what Lissa has to say about this. I've never heard about the 18 rule. I just assumed they were sensoring all of them.
