Mine too.

As for people being offended by them; I thought this is supposed to be a forum for adults? Which, if you didn't know, gives one licence to act like a kid. \:D/

I know sometimes my wife asks what I'm looking at, and I know she's looking at the butt on the treadmill and wondering if I'm sneaking a quick gander at some porn...

I was at the Honda shop today, spending over two hours for regular maintenance on our car. My wife pointed to the computers lined up along one wall and asked if I wanted to kill some time browsing the internet. I sat down at a computer, thinking that I would catch up on what's going on on udonmap.com, but then realizing that there were about 30 people sitting behind me, I thought otherwise.

If the moderators want it like this, then its their choice. I can always wait until nobody is looking over my shoulder to catch up with udonmap.com.

Noticed in that TV forum if you're not logged in then no other user's avatar is visible to you. Might be a feature that UdonMap could "copy" for those at work or in public cafes? Just suggesting. The avatars don't bother me at all, either way.

Hope no one is offended by my pit bull's avatar when she was a puppy. [-(

I thought this is supposed to be a forum for adults?
That's not strictly correct. The forum is meant to be for the use of members (male & female) and their families, - i.e. a mixed membership. In the past some members have commented that their wife and children do look over their shoulders, or that members of the public do look over their shoulders in Internet shops. Therefore I would suggest a little decorum and sensitivity would be appropriate.

The forum rules say:-

This Board is designed to be a place where a community can gather and hold discussion on various subjects in a friendly and non aggressive environment. We want every person to have an enjoyable experience and the Rules have been written in accordance with this goal.

and more specifically:-

16. You will not post pornographic, sexually offensive material or images of a type unsuitable for a family/office environment or post links to such material or images. ;) :D

good thing this isn't the USA, don't think you are allowed to post or display anything in the office, surely to offend someone. is anything thing allowed anymore, i've been so un PC for so long, i don't know what would be legal in states anymore. though nice to khow still have freedom of speech, can still call the president an A-hole, tho may get a tax audit. but any other kind of expression has to be PC.................sorry, i fail miserably. :yikes: :yikes: :yikes:

complete body cavity search
every time i fly into states, thankfully, not often, i think about being a smartarse, but that thought alone, keeps me in line. with exception of person that actually does your passport, everyone else seems to be a little retentive. or all have their application in for the CIA, cold expressions, trying to look thru you, or just 'overseeing' the masses thru their mirror shades. thai immigration have nothing on them. all other places i've been have be friendly and assisting, but they, usa and thai, talk about land of no smiles at immigrations.
