I have noticed more and more disgusting avatars floating around.
It is starting to remind me of PSA or a porno site.

I understand freedom of expression, but I thought this was a more refined site.
I am kindly asking the administration to take a look around and make a judgement as to the overall quality.

Thanks

Agreed.

I can't patrol the whole site. So if folk could tell me what is wrong, KAT will fix it.

This is about hotrodding Duramax Trucks. I don't want it to become DuramaxForums.

Fixed that for you, Pat. ;) The Witch carries a BIG broom, so watch out. :rofl:

Your constant referals to the 2 naked Mexican men in a bathtub is far more discusting than any avatar on this sight. You also act like a muslim that moves to a foreign country and wants force his beliefs on everyone else. Lighten up.

jkholder may be overreacting a bit (given the members and tradition associated with this site and racing/power-sports), but there is a bit of truth in what he says.

All the avatars on this site are PG-13, but there are some that make it a bit iffy to view DD at work. This probably has more to do with my boss being Mormon than the avatars actually being a problem.

Now that I know I can turn them off when at work, problem solved! Plus, it probably looks more like work that way anyway :spit:

Is the avatar on/off computer specific, or account specific? If I could get my work PC to not show them, and my phone & home PC to show them, that would be ideal. Not that changing the setting once in a while is too hard, I guess.

With all of this said, I think it is time for an avatar change.


There are a few that annoy me, mainly because me and the lady will be setting on the couch watching TV while I am on here and I get the "what kind of site are you on?"

Haha, I got a text the other night from her because I had watched old school and when she turned the TV on Old Schools main menu was up, she has never seen it so she had no idea what was going on. (For those who live in a box the menu is naked boobies)

Is this seriously for real? I mean we cant be serious right now. I wish everyone had the ups girl or the rainbow socks girl as avatars.
WHAT ANNOYS ME IS WE CANT SEE THE FRONT OF THE RAINBOW SOCKS GIRL. SOMETIMES THE IMAGINATION ISNT ENOUGH. LMAO:roflmao:
For gods sakes there my favortites. Who wants to stare at a truck blowin smoke when u can have the ups girl deliver the rainbow socks? Lol

Who's hating on my sister?!

I just saw this site and the quality and content degrading in my personal opinion.

It is just my opinion and like I said I am fine turning them off.

If I were in your shoes and it was my house I would just not care for it.

Are you a girl? Then don't speak for them. If a woman was in here saying the content was degrading then okay, we'd listen, but you do not have boobs, and if you do we sure do not want to see you in a bikini. Let women speak for themselves if they feel its degrading or not. My Fiance is very "gifted" and works a 2nd job bartending. There is a direct corellation between cleavage and tips. Not saying its right or wrong, but when your a young couple that just bought a house and have a wedding in a couple weeks, money talks. I really don't see the big deal and it doesn't bother her either. If people are attracted to you then so be it. They are people drinking at a bar, they don't have time to get to know you and like you for who you are, especially if you are already married or engaged, they care about how good you look and tip accordingly.

I have nothing against preserving a womans rights and privacy, but I also feel its their choice, not an extremists choice. It may be stereotypical or not politically correct, but most of the groups of people out claiming all of these different things are "demeaning" just seem to me like they are angry because they didn't get the gift of good looks, or they don't feel looks are important and can't find a guy that will stick around long enough to get to know them. I couldn't they scare me, they seem like they would beat me at night in my sleep with a pillowcase filled with bars of soap.

There is also the legal aspect to look at.
At some point the site will need to look at the possibility of a disclaimer before you enter the site stating users are 18 or older and there is explicit material.
You may have to have the site listed as adult content.
I do not want any of those outcomes.

I don't know how practical this is, but turning avatars off to non-members and then having members click a box to turn on avatars and agree they are 18 years or older may be in order.

Seriously? There is no porn, no violent language therefore no need for any of this BS. You don't have to be 18 years old to walk into a victorias secret store, you don't have to be 18 to go to the waterpark and see girls in swimsuits.

You and every other lawyer with nothing better to do are the reason our country is flushing itself.

Its along the same lines of why many European countries and Japan produce better products than us. No lawyers worrying about every little thing, people just get their shit done and if they burn their hand tough shit. They get paid well, treated well and they focus on making a better product versus covering their asses.

I saw boobies when I was 12 and I liked them, theres far worse things out there that kids can see. Rape, abuse, murder, drugs, etc etc. Hell walk into a Wal-Mart and just watch the people, thats far more devastating to a childs brain than some girl in a bikini.

i think the avatars that are blowing black smoke are way more offensive then anything ive seen in this thread :thumb:

On a serious note yes. To me it shows me a much more immature/uneducated/lowlife than someone who just enjoys some good old fashioned eye candy. Everybody likes boobs, smoke however makes me want to get out the baby powder.

I just was over on PSA and there they have a user who has 2 latino men together in a bath tub something about jesus&jesus.
There are allot of other nasty ones over there.
That was what I wanted to avoid here.

I think somebody needs to have "The Talk" with you....

Every "raunchy" photo(as my diehard Catholic Gma would say) that is on here has been of attractive girls posing in an appealing outfit and stance. Naturally heterosexual males are attracted to this.

Two guys in a bathtub is not something I have seen on here, nor have I seen anything along the lines of that on here even as a joke. Now there was the picture of the guy who shared a striking resemblence to Pat wearing a nice gold chain and speedo, but otherwise its mostly pictures of the feminine nature. Heterosexuals do not enjoy pictures of guys together naked. I'm not saying nobody on this site hasn't been curious, or enjoys it, but in the public eye everyone on here is very well behaved.

Thats not too say we do not accept the homosexual or bisexual lifestyle, but honestly, women and homosexuals don't really get turned on by a picture of a guys fruit basket, or two fat guys in a hot tub. Now I am sure what they would consider attractive guys would get them hot and bothered, but the rare pictures of guys that are posted on here are generally not the stereotypical "Hot Guy".

With that said, I present the following classic video clip (just the first one) watch the rest though if you want, Eddie Murphy was hilarious back in the day.

Hey I still miss the babe of the day thread:rofl:

I think it had over 78,000 views,some got a bit carried away and unfortunately it got closed and not aloud again.As long as the important parts are covered I don't see a problem with it to anyone, like said the Victoria secrets and the hooters girls just had their competition on tv the other night which I missed and hoping to catch again.:D

durallymax all I meant by degrade is the content of the site.
I was not saying the pictures are degrading to woman as the woman in the pics choose to be there.

Sorry for the confusion.

I just think the level we are at seem adequate and it should be discussed so that it does not go further.
The smoke as well is a good point made by other members.

If you haven't noticed this site is full of "big boys". We know whats appropriate and whats not, the immature ones have managed to stay away some how. Hopefully it stays that way.

This site is not suppose to be appealing to every tom dick and harry, its here for hardcored Duramax enthusiasts. An attractive girl for an avatar is not really degrading to the technical info on the site. The technical info is what matters, if somebody is offended by an attractive girl and chooses not to read the tech info because of it, so be it, but I bet 99% of the people still want to read the tech info anyways.

I REPEAT, there is no pictures of latinos in hot tubs. I swear you just want to see somebody post some naked mexicans. I'm sorry but over 30% of the internet traffic is porn related. Thats just naked stuff, that doesn't include anything else. If you want to see naked latinos in a hot tub I am sure its nothing more than a google search away, however that is not something I am willing to LMGTFY.

Worry more about your own business and stay out of the forum business. Concentrate on building a nuclear shelter for yourself and be on the lookout for naked Mexican men walking down the street with a bath tub in tow.
God forbid a bomb hits and they wind up joining you in your shelter.:rofl:
