this wouldn't be a problem if we could block individual avatars, tbh

what do you guys think of that
i'd be in goddamn full acceptance of that

everyone wins

That's just silly and you know it.

How? We already have a similar option with Anarchy

You mean the anonymous posting image, right?  I've only attended 3 anarchy weekends.

There's currently a script with Anarchy that allows users to have a separate avatar for that forum, and it can be anything within Anarchy's rules (No loli, etc). If someone in anarchy doesn't want to see those Anarchy avatars, they can turn the option off and will only see the global one.

NSFW in itself is a very subjective term and you can't really apply objectivity to it.
indeed
you contradicted yourself, by the way

cheat considers it NSFW
Yes. Unfortunately the practice of judging images is subjective. Sorry if that rustles your jimmies, but the avatar and nameplate images are going to need to remain on the safer side, since they're not able to be spoilered to guests and potential members.
you don't have any potential members outside of people coming from b.net and most of them are completely used and have no problem to stuff like this. I think you have this idea that you have this wildly expanding community of people that are completely new to the internet, well you fucking don't.

You have to also remember that there are minors that frequent Sep7agon, and I'm pretty sure it's illegal in most of the United States to show minors any form of pornography. Although, as suggestive as that gif is it is not pornographic, but Cheat has the final say on anything that goes on on his forum.

At the same time, this is the only facet where we try to make thing appropriate for minors. We don't forbid swearing, there are plenty of "racist" jokes, half of the images outside of avatars aren't appropriate for minors.

It isn't, or shouldn't be, our place to ensure that everything is sterile and family-friendly.


Of course we can't shelter them from swearing and our dirty jokes, but at least keep the avatars and nameplates PG13. The last thing I want is to forbid our usual banter otherwise this place would die.

There are quite a few PG13 movies with suggestive themes and partial nudity. Hell, most of them have it

Touché but even at that there should be some common sense about what your avatar should and should not be. -.-

Same could be said for when and where you browse an internet forum that is prone to sexual themes, racist jokes, swearing, etc.

Profile image cannot be anything illegal (No loli/graphic gore/etc) and no porn.

Otherwise, we're fairly lenient
you might want to review your own rules on that because avatars that aren't porn have been removed

"Fairly lenient"

There are always exceptions. Play nice. Blah blah blah.
the avatar thing is far from lenient



there is no legitimate reason this shouldn't be allowed as an avatar

I don't disagree

There are always exceptions, though very few times have staff stepped in to actually force remove an avatar. I can think maybe less than 10.

It's going to sound extremely fucking cliche, but join a damn club.
I want to, but, as great as my school is, it sucks at advertising its clubs and organizations. I wouldn't even know where to begin looking for something to join.

Does your class have a Facebook page - as in, a "Class of 2019" page or whatever? If there is, a good chunk of the time clubs and events will advertise there.

Check out the SUB as well.
It does, but I deactivated my Facebook account a while ago. I guess reactivating it and joining the group is worth a try, thanks.

And what's SUB?

The Student Union Building (Where I'm from, we just say SUB).

It's kind of the center of a university - a lot of them have food courts or the bookstore there, along with where people advertise clubs and such.
Oh, okay. Yeah, we have one, but I haven't been since orientation. It has a food court and bookstore, but not much else for students to do. If clubs are advertised there, I don't know where.

Just watch for posters going up on the walls, or look for a bulletin board. Guarantee they'll be there
