I really think that picture was faked, not that I'm asking anyone to look closer, but I think that was wax. Still disgusting because she still had to shove it up her you-know-what to make that picture.

Yeah we really do need a few mods, I don't know who the admin is here but even if you assign some regular members with the power to delete offensive posts, at least there's more chance of catching something bad. If we all know who the mods are, we could even report stuff to them if they haven't noticed yet. You also need to get a few mods who are in other time zones like Australia etc, so that someone can be on when it's night everywhere else.

I apologize for blaming the forum. I suppose I overreacted and was freaked out because I've never seen anything like this and felt so disgusted!

After calming down, and reading posts, I understand better now what can happen when someone invades a forum.

It looked like a chicken of some sort--couldn't make out what it was initially and then---still not exactly sure. I guess this is best.

No, I wouldn't want kids to see this--my son gets images stuck in his head and can't get rid of them! This is his problem right now. We have to be careful what he views. Maybe others are the same. My brain moves forward, and images become fuzzy. I'm not as visual.My son doesn't go on here anyway, but I do know other kids do (not necessarily this one--parents).

thx for the reassurance and support,

Forgive my curiousity, but what was the original augustus banned for? I don't remember two instances of image spamming. :?

It's still just a picture. It's gross, it's nothing I'd prefer to look at, but it CAN'T HURT YOU.
No kid logged on WP that day, saw the picture, and immediately hung himself because he couldn't take it. It's just a picture, just as 'swear' words are just words. The only thing making them 'bad' are the social taboos surrounding them...and in most cases, a kid seeing something like that will probably laugh and not care ten minutes later, whereas the parent is the one having a endless hissy fit over it.

I agree that there should be a mod or two to wipe out such posts because I don't particularly want to see that stuff all the time either, but honestly it is not that big of a deal. Right now American goon-soldiers are murdering Iraqi children by the truckloads, Chinese shocktroopers are massacring innocent Tibetan women and children, aggressive overconsumption is annihilating every last acre of wild and free territory in the world, people are starving to death by the thousands, a fake election is distracting the American people from the fact that they have no voice whatsoever in their imperialistic regime, and so on. Those are things to be all worked up about...this is just a stupid picture that can't do a thing but look gross.
