Brute . . . . love the new avatar . . . looks slightly familiar (but much cooler than mine)

BTW, I met Carl Fogerty once . . . . kind of a Richard (insert nickname for Richard here) so that picture really represents him

I feel this site is a way too sensitve - There are things that are being dumped that you can see on the tv - I hope the powers that be can ligthen up a little, I understand about nudity since this isn't a porn site but for goodness sake when did this become a kiddy site????

My only problem is that the majority of people on this site (I'd say about 95%, maybe higher?) are adults, so it doesn't really make sense to have PG-13 rules for a mature audience. I'm not saying full frontal nudity or anything, just how it used to be like 6months- a year ago. No nudity or anything too raunchy, but still fun threads to look at.

I think it all comes down to the fact that...
1) people view this at work
2) this is a car site, not a "post pics that are suggestive or offensive" site
3) to keep order, they are overly cautious, so as to not offend anyone.

Smart thinking in my book.

Smart thinking in my book.

The rules have always been here - before you joined, before you paid for a membership. So you paid. So what? Should I think I own the road and do what I like on it just because I pay taxes? Should I consider that I can go into a library and demand them to give me all the books I want for as long as I want because I pay taxes? WAIT! My taxes paid for the police dept. Maybe I should demand to be exempt from tickets? Then there's that garbage truck I paid for with my taxes. I want my garbage picked up first and on the day that's convenient to me. Come to think of it. My taxes helped build my local airport terminal. I demand to be able to take a gun into it. I want, I want, I want!
I know where the door is. It's alway my choice to use it.
