Because this is Fel's post, I'll let him deal with it all. I only uphold the rules and deal with the complaints.

Ok, FF, I'll un-ban you if you promise to represent JoeDios in a way you think won't be embarrassing to me. That includes the cursing I've seen in some of your threads being respectful of the members and the site.

Done and done. Embarrassing you was never my intent. Cursing is for sailors and hisstank members anyway.

I'm probably a little late on this matter but when reading all of your posts... this whole thing seems blown out of porportions...They're toys afterall.

And this is coming from a guy that havent even seen the mentioned "chocolate city" picture. I' mean I consider having a pretty warped sense of humor myself, I laugh to things that are crude, vile, and just inapropriate...but thats because I understand that sometimes "humor" has to be taken a little over the top to be funny...not always, but sometimes. (eg. bathroom jokes...to me they are funny cos' they are so bad/corny).

Or like a very bad movie that becomes funny because it is so freaking bad that its sad for the people who made it, cos' they were dead serious when making it.

Seeing FF's pictures and reading some of his posts have pretty much given me a picture of what kind of guy he is and what can be expected of him...so picture like this in question would have been funny for me (if I would have seen it).

Come on people, they're fully clothed toys, they can't have sex. Maybe someone can imply it but it takes the viewer to imagine it. I know somebody will say that JoeDios can't have "sexy" shots because of younger viewers but how can you tell them sex is bad but killing is acceptable?

What's going to be censored next? These are toys, don't take them so seriously.



So I'll agree to this 100%

Which is worse, seeing something that is completly natural behaviour for humans, or seeing people get killed in 100 different ways...blood everywhere etc.

and before anyone starts, yes they are toys, so sex is not "normal" for them...well neither is killing or anything else except being motionless pieces of plastic.

But in the end, this is Hammerfels site, and the ultimate decision lies in his judgement of what he wants shown in his website.

And I cant understand how boy scouts are relevant to this conversation even if someone put a gun on my head... or why are they even brought up...but hey, thats just me...

Me either. The funniest thing about this whole thread was the "jail time" comment. Give me a break! We are not blithering idiots!
The BSA also has a political agenda.
The military also look to the long haired skater rats at the mall for recruits. I have even seen recruiters talking to gang-bangers in their colors!
One more thing - remember "Tail-Hook" or Abu Ghraib (those pics they were naked)? So yeah, the military has sex scandals as well.
It was not long ago someone else was being told to read the rules & regs.

Congrats fireflyed & keep your nose clean!

Amen, Dave I've never seen recruiters chasing the lower class, minorities or seventeen year olds with promises of three squares, college or world travel If you are pro BSA, though, follow this link...http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-l...tmaster/999462/

wow
4000 Posts and just shy of 500 pictures on his account.. despite a number of said comments I still think the 'knee jerk reaction' was uncalled for.

You really couldn't just remove his picture and send him a PM? Coming from those that police this site you claim to be adults, yet the simplest issue and you've allowed it to get out of hand.

*applause*

Extremely well handled i must say. Although I am somewhat agreed with the new rules put up by the site owner, I'm reluctant to think people policing will be smart enough to follow them through.

Well done to Hammerfel; common sense prevails. But if I were Cory I wouldnt bother coming back. Your talent is wasted here in this community, where after so many hours posting and contributing, the powers that be allow a personal grievance to cloud their judgment and kill your membership with the drop of an axe.

I think it's a good plicy since I was to look at pictures with my 6 years boy and it's still to soon to explain some actions. And being a toy oriented site, we can have many kids looking to it and so...

cant we all just gt alone???

seriously though, i just wanted to say im glad this is worked out. i never saw the pictures so i have no say on that. i dont get on as much as i use to but i do like cory's pics and customs. he has helped me out with a crosshair head and if im not mistaken hes a fellow ketuckien. so ive only got good things to say about him.
the same goes for graham. its a hard job to do what he does when you know you will make some people mad, often not just the one, but a lot of their friends. general scarlett would know about how hard of a job this can be. still he does it and im grateful to him.
and last but surely not least hammerfel. the man puts up this site from his own money which has allowed us all to come here and do what we LOVE. you can tell from cory's writing how much it even meas to him. there were sides drawn and taken and opinions stated, im just glad we didnt take it so far as to lose members and/or lose this great site.
once again im just glad this has worked out. dont want to lose great members and people like cory, dont want to lose people who do what they do without pay or praise like G, and dont want to lose this great site hammerfel has given us alone with all the memories, dios and pictures by those such as the great outrider.
