gV IN UPROAR OVER IMMY IMAGES!!
Notoriously open and helpful Imnotgoing Sideways (aka Immy) posted an image on Lias' thread 'What Computer Desktop Image Do You Use?' that's caused an uproar amongst the normally sedate and mature forum regulars.
Even after Immy edited the link to other images, Lias' comment copied the original, unedited link.
Kiddie porn or no? The images to Immy's edited link portrayed nude and semi-nude images on a beach. Does the image depict children engaged in sexual behavior?
What about the above photo of a Mexican cross-dressing wrestler? Porn or merely fascinatingly disgusting?
What do we 'read' into images? If we see two nude children on a beach splashing each other at water's edge, is that titillating? Do we 'edit' the image in our minds to make it more or less pornographic?
BTW: Lee's covered this 'controversy' with a neat little summary for those of you who don't wish to slog through the minor dramas or just plain nonsense in the thread.
FC thinks gV has finally found it's 'calling'. LOLCATs doesn't do it. Outting alts doesn't do it. Banning Wasted doesn't do it.
Pretend disgust at cartoon images of naked children threads does it. gV will attract more members and finally achieve the goal of surpassing the membership of SCII.
