I would have made the same call, if I had been in the same position as Goob.

When did I say that?

Only if the companies would agree to it. If they don't then no , he could not.

Just figured as many on the forums you would not pay for membership rights.

Depending on price, it would not bother me what so ever. Maybe have a few different levels of membership to compensate for all users.

In most cases I would agree with you. However, you are in a vast minority on this forum if you are truly willing to pay. I would say as low as 2-5% and that is a bit on the high side.

Sorry, if I offended you I suppose.

I agree to an extent, but some of the advertisers have pretty strick guidelines to follow, or you're done for. A lot of retail transactions go on on this site, so it's also best to keep it as professional as possible, with least amount of obscenities.

Actually he can. Google doesnt have access to it since its members only. Notice how there arent google spiders in there like there used to be.

Ah, good point there.

All though, it has been my thoughts that to stay consistent is better then to not be. I don't see much of a reason for the need to have obscene language or nudity on the site personally. The content censorship though does affect me one way or the other really. Just a point that can be argued from both sides. In the end, it is up to the MAN and not any of us.

The forum settings allow certain settings for each section. The TDome could get images and profanity back while prohibiting and censoring it from other areas. The only ones who would see it are the members that post in the TDome. That way any user (such as yourself) that doesnt like it doesnt have to read it if they choose not to. Its really a simple concept.

Actually I don't know of a way to disallow the word censor forum specific.

I agree with all sides of it. I can see were there would be the need for a NSFW part of the TDome if he decided to figure it all out.

Makes sense, glad you took a minute to actually explain it, thanks.

It would be nice if we could at least get some more relaxed rules in the dome though :)
(If possible)

My dome needs pics and the boobies emoticon back please.

We can't say p.anties either. :laugh: Seriously, p.anties. We are in kindergarten again.

On topic, new feature is cool though.

I'm still laughing about the fact that the boobies emoticon is filtered...what a shithole.
