Tasteful??????
 

Had a conversation with a fellow Pixie once............where he argued the point that sexually explicit avatars on a "General" forum (a forum that is NOT geared toward sex....but just every day talk) is so politically incorrect and insulting to members who do not wish to view all this "smut stuff".

I took the counterpoint (as I am known to do........being the devil's advocate) that at Pixies we are subjected to peruse and post from forum to forum with only one avatar......and the time consuming process of changing our av from one forum to another shouldn't be necessary since......."WE ALL KNOW THIS IS INITIALLY A SEX SITE WHETHER ALL FORUMS ARE SEXUAL OR NOT".

Opinions please!!!!!!

This is a sex site!!!!! Explicit avs are completely appropriate especially since all members have the option to turn avs off!

Good Heavens.. what else would one expect to see at an adult oriented sex site... Like the Mistress above stated.. they have the option to turn off the view avatar option... so my advice to them would be to learn how to use it. :)

Instead of posting the diatribe I was just typing let me be constructive....


go to user cp at the top of the page

click edit options

11th choice down ( I believe) is "Show user's avatar in their posts?"

tick no

click submit modifications at the bottom of the page


:p

I think that was his point Lilith! That when we (those with sexually explicit avatars) came to a sexually non-explicit forum........we should turn our avs off or make a non-explicit one for posting in that thread. If I turn my av "off" it doesn't appear in ANY of my replies or posts.......no matter the thread I previously posted on......I can't make one for one forum and one for another.

His being insulted.......actually insulted me.........as I didn't say to him........come to this site and see what you want to see and you won't see what insults you! I think it's kinda rude to say that our avatars are insulting to him.........beings this is a sex site!

HMMMMMMMMMM the avs are ONE of many fav. things about this site....

I like seeing what members pick what avs... you kinda get to know them that way...

you won't catch me using a Explicit avatar.........no way !!!

OIC now Lilith! I think Fussy eluded to this option in another thread......as he was at work and didn't want his co-workers to see the sexy stuff he was viewing!

OK......Point well taken.........just had to mention this and see if it bothered anyone else!?????

We only get one av at a time and it fluctuates through all our posts regardless of where or when they were posted. This is an adult sexually oriented site. There is not one forum here where being sexual is inappropriate. I know that on occasion we digress and talk about non-sexual things but somehow the conversation always comes back to sex;)

gardening--->sex
cars---------->sex
music-------->sex
families-----> sex
work--------->sex

:D:D:p

Yup I have them turned off so I can read the gen chat stuff from work and not have the entire office drooling over lixy's AV ;)

Lixy I demand you name and shame this unknown pixie so that we may point and laugh at him !!!

(note to unknown pixie I'm kidding don't worry ;))

This might be a moot thread now as I didn't even realize the option was there to turn off the avs. I could have used that in my counterpoint argument! Damn I hate finding things out after the sauce has cooled!

Lixy.....
Ain't nobody EVER gonna be offended by one of your avatars!!!! OMIGOD do you always have such mighty fine avs!!!!!


Please please please just keep posting. Post anything, just keep posting so we can keep looking at your mighty fine bod!! :D

When I used to surf Pixies at work, I'd make the window extra small so you couldn't tell what the avs were (unless you were sitting at my desk). That way, I could still enjoy the avs and perv at work!

You could also change the screen resolution to make everything smaller but if you are blind like me then you can't read shit!
