I'd like to please ask you all to try and keep the "spamming" posts down to a reasonable level. Note that it is okay to post whatever you wish to post in the "Off topic" section but please avoid getting into races for posts numbers and / or posting spams in threads initiated by other users and thus diverging from the original topic.

I would like to Bump this with some changes...

If ANYONE posts with Child relating 'Jokes', the post will be removed immediately.

If an 18+ post is placed on the board, it will either be edited or removed.

Why, This is a free to read internet site, and my Daughter started reading the posts when she was 7 years old.

PLEASE RESPECT THE LAWS OF THIS BRILLIANT SITE

Should we have a members Jokes and Fun section?

By 18+ does that mean things like the grid girl thread and the offensive jokes section?

Can I also ask if there is anything specific that has prompted this post?

Have a members off topic section then don't understand the need for this tbh!

It's obv certain people dislike are banter on this forum and are calling it in spam to be honest the people who complain quite clearly are the worst culprits got a feeling this is becoming a joke what's the whole point of the forum!!

to be fair kev i do agree that its public areas and anyone can see what we put and certain things should be kept away from the eyes of people under 18

BUT and this is a big BUT, this should then mean that threads such as "grid girls" should be moved as its promoting half naked women to the world what happens if my 4 year old nephew looks on my comp and theirs all theses women with no clothes on? thats a 16+ thread if i have ever seen one!!! also the "bad parking thread" should be moved as what happens if one of the people from the pics taken sees it and gets offended?? not sending out the correct message again is it??

the thing is if you wanna make these new rules stick they need to be consistent across the board and not just to suit certain people and their demands!!

i tell you something i have been on this forum a year and its changed so much and not for the better in my opinion!! i miss the old banter we all had now its divided here there and everywhere!!

YES Lee.

When you get a PM requested from a Noob to post up on the 'Offensive' post regarding that poor little 'April from Wales', then I think it's OTT

So we are looking ever closer at posts as from now.

As far as Photos guys, if PB or Tiny Pics approve of your uploads then they should be O.K for here.
