Guys I have gotten many complaints about some of the "graphic" avatars that are being exhibited here, i.e. the ones with mostly naked women. These avatars just started cropping up about two weeks ago and only a handful of guys have them. Please change them and save me the time :p Thanks guys! :)

I think GUY400 or 4punks warned us about this in one of the other threads. I could see how the girls might have a problem with it :p . To bad for complainers.

Mines cool right ;) .

Ben

Actually not a single woman or girl has complained - it has been all men and people that are highly active here! I wasn't aware that Guy and 4punks said anything but they were right on track! :D

i can see yer point, i dont find it offensive tho but i dotn think anywomen will come here and wanna see that if u wanan see naked chicks there are plenty of places on the net

02-15-2003, 04:01 PM
bill your kind of right, but when you see guys in thong speedo's or nude but blocked out then t would make exrider's gay as heck

02-15-2003, 04:14 PM
we only want avatars/ pics of girls w/clothes on
....so remove all the avatars w/guys in them ;) :devil j/k

yea i noticed this too i mean the chick thread maybe every 2 months then get locked. or ben perhaps you could have a section with the chick pictures that say only exriders patrons could access and perhaps provide the patrons with a pin # they chose to get into this area. now i am definitley not saying MAKE THIS A PAYSITE. dont do it but just a thread that patrons could access or some way to control it. basically im saying a way to control the chick thread. maybe one every month and then take the pics from it (the tasteful ones anyway) and put them in a locked thread that only you can post them in. and that way, they wouldnt get out of hand. thats an idea. get what im sayin?

Well I was reading some very old posts where this guy "CRF450" or something wanted to SEW exriders for one of the chick threads. He said that his son clicked on the link, blah blah blah. There was a big problem awhile ago with this guy. I think that and other people complaining about the chick thread made the Mods lock the threads up!

02-15-2003, 07:48 PM
that guy was jus a trouble maker leo gave him the boot but the guy still had a pt, even tho were all guys and we love women,......well most of use there is a place for each

I can understand that, but they are nice, but since it is a quad site we really need to slack off on these types of things and get to what were here for QUADS!!!:devil

You guys should all know whether your avatars are beyond the line or not.

Rip_Tear
02-16-2003, 02:03 PM
If your not sure, just change it! I see where people are comming from though, It starts off nice then goes over board, like the "Girls on..." threads... Where did you get tha O'Neil girl? :D For real though...

Im bumping this back up b/c the message didnt seem to get across. I saw one a few mins ago with a chic tht had absolutely nothin on, just her hands covering her rack. Not that I dont like this, but we have to think bout the kids and what this site represents.

Plz dont ask if your avatar is acceptable, you should be able to determine that yourself. :)

Does mine need changing. She is not exactly naked .

Ryan
02-20-2003, 08:35 PM
I never saw any avators that the girls were completley naked. I think what Ben wants is to get rid of all the chick things. I think we should just stick with atv avators unless Ben says otherwise.

02-20-2003, 09:25 PM
I like the girl avators, and would hate to see them go. I don't come here for just quads any more. I think if you keep it taste full, I don't think you sould get rid of them.

I myself don’t see anything wrong with the Girl Avatars as long as there is no Nudity in them. If a girl in a Bikini or tight shirt offends some one then they have their own issues. Why should some one have to worry about shielding THEM from the world, I mean come on it is 2003, not 1974. Just keep it clean and for all you tree loving, sandal wearing hippie’s…..grow up.

I love women just as much as the next guy, but this is a quad forum, not a nude chic forum. :)

i don't know this is a touchey subject its almost like for bens part its gonna be like if i make it no women then some ppl will be pissed, but if i don't then others will be pissed!

do you guys get what i mean? if it was up to me i'd say leave it but its up to ben

BUT is there kids on here like younger than 10?
also its not like there full page!

02-21-2003, 08:13 AM
i really don't mind them but that's just me, i say go with what ben says because if it wasn't for him we wouldn't have this great site and if you want to come her for women then your at the wrong place go so where's else such as a porn site or other forms that have alot of threads with this stuff.

actually that is from the huevos calendar, so it is quad related and therefor good on a quad related site

Rip_Tear
02-21-2003, 04:06 PM
I think what Ben is trying to get across is that he doesnt want it to go to far, like the "Chick" threads. Like it starts with swim suits and not nude ladies, then it will be super hard core and then Ben will get in trouble... He is trying to prevent a problem.

I like them to, but I totaly stand behind ben on this one.

Striker49
02-21-2003, 04:10 PM
Yea, swimsuits should be ok. And yes, I know that the avatar I posted is quad related, but she is still clothesless.

Swimsuits should be as far as it goes. Thongs and no clothes should be over the line. But thats just me.

Im just tryin to help please the masses. :p

I agree with Striker, if you want to look at 1/2 naked women, just open up another IE. It will only take you 30 secs to do this :eek2: :blah

Just keep it clean so Ben doesn't have to use his Law degree on ya!:huh

Breadman - go to your "User CP" area (the button to it is on the top button bar). Then click on "Options." At the bottom of the Options page there is a button to add an avatar. From there just follow the instructions! :)

thanks for the reply... but I have tried that and there are no avatars there to choose from. I went to user cp then clicked on edit options... then went to the bottom and clicked on change avatar... and right there where it says use avatar the option is checked no... but it doesn't give you an option to say yes to... on down it gives you an option to say yes but that is to use a custom avatar. what am I doing wrong?

Ben
02-26-2003, 05:50 PM
Do you see the little button on the Avatar Page that says "Custom Avatar?" You have to upload a picture from your computer for your avatar. This can be any appropriate picture that is 65x65 pixels :cool:
