It all about my constitution also

[Sarge707]

No, but the goodies were airbrushed out. Consider them frogskin tights. :roflblack:

I think you punishing us with that Avatar! I liked the other one-You looked like you were going to fly a WWI Bi-Plane! :roflblack:

Please don't blame Lamont because like you said you have had that avatar for over a year and did lamont say anything to you about it? it just offended other people who should have manned up or womanned up and spoke to you directly first, not go to lamont right away, why make him the bad guy about this and for the record i was so use to it that it did not bother me at all.

I have thought about responding to this thread and have deleted it several times. I noticed the hood avatar and found it in poor taste and not classy which is what I had always thought this forum was. I didn't complain about it, but I definitely found it offensive and whoever did report it I want them to know I'm thankful and I'm also glad Lamont stepped up. I think it is a slippery slope. If that was allowed to stay, then others would start posting similar things and how could Lamont tell one person to take it off if someone else was allowed to keep that on here. Sure we've all seen it before, but frankly when I come to this site I don't want to see naked women or boobs (sorry not my thing) I come to discuss the Spyder and get information on the bike. I also wonder how do you drive that around and not think about little kids seeing it? If I had a naked man on my hood I'd have to paint clothes on him to ride the bike out in public. What is considered art to one is considered porn to another.

I just received a PM from Larmont. Some body sent him a message complaining about the artwork on my trunk lid. I've been on this site for awhile now and haven't had any problems. My pic was removed from the site. Not right. That same pic was my avatar for over a year. and no one said anything. With that said. I will no longer posting on this site. Goodbye. :gaah::gaah:

I think that bra came from Madonna

Maybe he can take a picture of his Spyder with some clothes on it, and then everyone would be happy......:dontknow:

Just want to say I appreciate the way Lamont runs this site. The picture didn't offend me, in fact I thought it was a nice picture. But it's inappropriate for a family site and I'm glad Lamont removed it. In my opinion, it's also inappropriate for any machine that's operated in public. There needs to be just a little modesty left in the world.

[wyliec]

double standard

To those that find the semi-nude offensive b/c this is a 'family site', how do you feel about the avatar with the little boy looking into the little girl's pants (with the caption from the little girl's perspective) "With this I'm going to control your life."

I find neither the semi-nude nor the little kids (avatar) offensive.

I do agree that this is Lamont's site and he can do as he wishes.

 

[Smylinacha]

I never saw that?

I don't pay attention too well.

I just came upon this thread

I feel like I missed out on something good (smirk)

Look man, it's real simple. No need to get philosophical about this. Lamont's site, Lamont's rules. End of discussion.

The graphic wasn't overly offensive but it crossed the line and Lamont did whay he had to do. I didn't think it was apropriate given the spirit of how this site flows. Many of us come here to get away from that kind of stuff.

I think Lamont did the right thing. If dude got mad and went away, well, so be it. Lamont wasn't singling him out or being mean, so I think the gentleman over-reacted. :dontknow:

:agree: But whats good for one is good for all so maybe everybody should police themselves that includes avatars and signatures yes their are offensive sigs out their and i could point one out but i don't consider offensive but i know some people would.
