It relates to this comment made by Bondipom.

Please read the FAQ. If people want tits and ass there are plenty of other sites out there. This is an inclusive place and there are those who dislike having bosoms thrusted at them and we take into account their sensitivities. It is only a temp ban and frankly I can understand why flutterscutter was banned. Some people do not get a simple message.

Firstly, i would like to point out that in the rules it states that avatars must not be naked or pornographic. Fluttercutters avatar was neither naked or pornographic. It was a cartoon of a woman jogging.

This lady has been very friendly to me, and as far as i am aware she has never been rude, abusive, swore and carried on like many other members who are allowed to do just that in all areas of this website.
Until she made the fatal mistake last night of asking a question in defense of Megalanias banning, not one of you moderators took the slightest bit of notice of her avatar. She was not rude or abusive in the question she asked. She admitted to making a mistake posting it on the forum and rectified that by posting to a mod.

The only thing this lady did was question double standards in allowing some words on here and not others. To make this point she highlighted a reply in the sport section where a moderator himself had made quite derogitory comments about Australians. She had not requested it should be removed, but was merely using it as a yardstick to make her point. I, as well as many other members here, felt it was a fair question.
Shortly after her avatar was questioned. It was susbsequently removed by a moderator.
Once again she felt this was unjust and unfair considering the nature of other avatars, threads and posts within this forum. Once again she used another members avatar to highlight a point of double standards. This other persons avatar had been used here since January and no one had questioned it.

I, and many other members feel the moderators of this forum need to address this issue.

You cannot have one rule for one member and one for everyone else. If you do stick and adhere to your exact rulings, this site will take a nose dive as practically every forum within it has strong language, pornographic references from time to time and is generally set up for adults and their sense of humour.

Purely by not being open as moderators and discussing the issues, a catalogue of bannings, threats and excessive restraints have been placed without respect or consideration for the members concerned.

I just hope you have got this message Bondipom as i feel there are many members who would agree with me.

I expect a banning shortly for my impudence.


i also agree with this post, very strongly.

Thats a bit harsh isn't it? Fuzy duck has only 140 posts but a huge amount of karma. Doesn't this indicate that alot of people have an empathy for his posts and reward him with karma? He seems to have a very high karma to post ratio. I personally don't like some of what he says but I'll defend his right to say it.
