All the problems that the world has, at least the problems of NSFW threads on a automobile forum is all wrapped up and took care of. Moving forward on the road to recovery.

You're confusing socio-economic systems with totalitarian governments.

You suggest that it's communistic for the owner of this site to use his private property as he sees fit. That's actually the diametric opposite of "Communism".

Your notion of "needs to be totally overhauled for the people who own" is a socialist agenda with communistic overtones, tovarich. You are actually saying that a soviet (which is the government of a communist nation) should be set up to run the website for the good of the people. In other words, you're paralleling the 1917 revolution, which is a fascinating turn of events to me. You're a bolshevik but you don't know it.

What the owner is doing with his private property is his business. You also agreed that anything and anything you or anyone else posts here can be censored or edited by Administration, for any reason at any time.

If that troubles you, leave. Start your own worker's paradise, I mean uh, Camaro forum.

Anything that wasn't NSFW is OK and can be re-posted.

I seriously disagree with NSFW being ambiguous or confusing. If a person argues that it's ambiguous...frankly I wouldn't lend them five dollars, because I know they are being disingenuous. Accountability is something we in general have a problem with, and it just doesn't wash with me.

You've got to be kidding me. Are you seriously trying to imply that what's NSFW is the same everywhere? There are no grey lines at all huh?

I wouldn't that show the "White guy in a gold tee shirt" picture at any police office right now...

No politics is not ambiguous. No religious discussion is not ambiguous. Nothing that's "NSFW" is.

I did not say "what's NSFW is the same everywhere". That's completely not anything I touched on.

I said "NSFW" is not ambiguous. Here's why: If you have a suspicion that a particular thing is "NSFW" on this site, then you already have your answer. You have your answer because you're not a dummy.

We are adults here. I'm never going to believe we're too dumb to understand something at the same time we are smart enough to rationalize about it. I know people try to convince me that we are smart at the same time we're dumb, not just here but everywhere I go in the real world, but I don't buy it. I also won't believe you're too dumb to understand what's NSFW here and what's not: if you think you need to put "NSFW" on it- it's not OK for the site. Simple.

However I will never lend you five bucks.

You know what's OK on this site in each and every other forum, but people seem to feel this off-topic forum is immune somehow, and they have reasons why: it's ambiguous, they say.

Ever see 'The Young Ones'? It was a comedy from the '80s. In one episode, two characters try to get a VCR to work. One of them tries to clean it with dish-wash, because the instructions say "ensure unit is clean", and the instructions do not say "do not use dish-wash to clean", so he must be right. Your logic is the same as using the dish-wash to clean the VCR: nobody told you not to, so it must be OK. That's not ambiguity. That's rationalization for doing something you know better about.

We are adults here. I'm never going to believe we're too dumb to understand something at the same time we are smart enough to rationalize about it. I know people try to convince me that we are smart at the same time we're dumb, not just here but everywhere I go in the real world, but I don't buy it.
"Ambiguous" as you use it can mean for something to have a double meaning. However, ambiguous also means "not expressed or understood clearly" or, as the full and first definition "doubtful or uncertain especially from obscurity or indistinctness <eyes of an ambiguous color>" (yeah yeah, I copy and pasted from Webster and I hate that).

For example, if you told me "don't post anything potentially offensive in the workplace", I would take that to include profanity of any kind. Using profanity in the workplace is "not safe" for most people. I use that example, because in the new safe-for-work thread, the moderator that put the smack down on the previous NSFW content posted "thank you everyone" directly under a picture that contained the word "shit".

So when one says NSFW, that's why I say it's ambiguous. What a person views as NSFW is not the same as what everyone feels is NSFW.

I'm not saying that the NSFW thread didn't test, and sometimes surpass the line of what I would think is acceptable, but even then it a test of what I would think is an "err on the side of caution" line.

Anywho...
