What do they want?

MY VISTA

I have spent a lot of time on the WC site the past few years but I have never seen a screenshot like My Vista by vistafanat.
I thought that this site had some class. Don't get me wrong. I've spent considerable amount of time looking at things on the net that I would consider ehh, for adults only. So my question is this: Is this site now allowing images/language/data that has the words - blow job, penis, anal sex, condomn, bitch, bastard......
So if that is what this site is going to be about, allow then I'll make sure that my kids don't go here anymoe and I will alos tell any friends that I know who frequent WC to beware. That's free speech too. [link removed, as was screenshot] - Jafo

Let's hear from Jafo!

OK...

It seems there's a certain 'mountain' [tirade] to be made from the molehill [link removal]...

But...

The only item that evokes response is a reference to....

You are allowing nudity, illegal drug images, you allow humiliation of Gay's

Firstly it's 'Gays' [if that term 'must' be used... Spell checker

Nudity has always been allowed on Wincustomize.com.

Always.

Determination of its limits is by the site Administration, answerable ultimately to the site Owners.

Secondly, it is the drugs which 'may' be illegal, not their depiction.

Thirdly, IF there exists an instance of discrimination for, against, of, or by 'Gays' please indicate where and it will be dealt with, as will its 'author'. That IS in violation of site rules [not to mention common decency and moral standards].

Again, just to clarify...to show a distinction between the two items of 'issue'.

One is a simplistic and not blatantly sexual or debasing graphic adopted for a bootskin work...something actually about what Wincustomize.com is FOR - in this case - bootskins.

The other was an image designed to at best titillate and at worst demean specific individuals. Neither motivation had any relevance to Wincustomize.com or its gallery content what-so-ever.

So...what one sees as some kind of vague double standard can be shown for what it is quite readily - as good common-sense....

Penis and Nipple included? O.K.

Lover's XP Bootskin ....

If you will take notice, that is an arm, not a Penis.

The admins here at WC do a great job of moderating out vulgar, obscene, and pornographic. You can see more nudity just by turning the television on, then you will find posted at this site.

It's great that you actually care about what your children do or do not see, it's rare these days.

And I am not trying to fan the flames here, but thought I should point this out.

I don't feel that having MY kids, should they browse this site, see a bootskin with a naked woman and man is appropriate. You can clearly see what (I hope) was half (or less) of his Penis, and, you can clearly see at least one of her nipples. This image would never be allowed on t.v.. Yet it IS allowed here. And, my bringing it up gets you all fired up to jump on me.

Gee...I sincerely hope this is NOT about that bootskin called 'Lovers XP'.

I REALLY hope not.

The 'penis' to which you refer is the man's left arm. The detail both of this non-penis and the 'half nipple' is dithered 4bit [16 colour] monochrome 'silhouette' [more correctly referred-to as 'posterized']. There ARE 46 colours in the jpg preview....[dithering to 'full colour' does that], but the actual bitmap is 16 as it should be.

Even the most simplistic education regarding human anatomy will demonstrate that it cannot be his penis [as they are not attached at the hip].

One hopes there's an entirely DIFFERENT 'penis' at issue, as this one is non-existent....

Well, I think that considering anything I do, or say as "simplistic" is funny.

I guess questioning my education is proving your point. I could continue to be a pain about this, but I really don't want to pay someone more edumacatted thenn mahself 2 c if u r tieping everything write.

I AM glad you pointed out my typographical error in "Gay's". There are probably a few others around here as well.

I'm sure that the folks that are "gay" or "queer" would find issue with my addition of ' added to Gay's as being worse then being compared to a "Spongebob & Patrick" "Gay" skit?

It's all about respect. Even after all of this started, I had enough respect for Stardock...and...you all, to purchase the program (s). I don't see a whole lot of respect for people who are just realizing that all of this is even possible. But that's your choice. (oh, good grief! should I have put that ' there or not?).......contemplate.....contemplate.

I want to help. I want to learn. Everything else is B.S. At least to me.

You may see me as a simplistic, uneducated pimple on your behind that will not go away. That is your choice. As for me? I have access to a person or two that may like what can be offered here. As it stands, I'd rather have them stand naked in public. I have seen the kind of response that their "WinCustomize" ignorance can get. I'm still seeing it.

I've seen not one "concession" from anyone here. This is what I will remember. You've made it clear that I have absolutely no argument. Re-reading the post that started this thread, I'm not sure that, that person did either. It does seem a bit contradictory that someone complaining about the usage of the word "Penis" should post the same word in his/her complaint about.

Whatever. Citizen rychian is better at these things than I.

P.S.-Last I checked...I wasn't banned and, I don't remember being asked to leave. This is a compliment to those I completely disagree with. To paint this otherwise is brilliant considering the way this has gone. I don't know about the others (obviously), but as for me, I think you have just gained access into WC Heaven.

I'm most likely wrong in this opinion as well. I used to get along with my wife like this. Weird!

I wonder who changed.
