  There wouldnt really be any harm to not add it since there is the option of turning it on and off, and if it becomes too much of a problem over time you can just delete it o-o. People who dont wanna see it dont have to and the people who do can :P

  I really feel like about 5 people at most would want to utilize this function, TA being the main one. While I realize you disagree, that's what I think. Call me a prude or whatever, but...yeah. I think it's a silly idea and I don't understand why you're gunning so hard for it. This isn't some kind of porn site, and I don't think it will be even when we do move to xenforo.
  
  I just think this is superfluous and overboard.

  How am I "gunning hard" for it, exactly?
  
  I posted a suggestion thread. I defend my idea.
  
  It's only natural.
  
  No, do you expect me to just let everyone trample all over it without giving any fight for it whatsoever?
  
  What kind of an incompetent proposal of a feature would that be...? Not even one worth posting, if I cared about it so little and was so non-comitted to its defense.
  
  The very reason it would be good is the very reason people complain. It isn't about porn. It never was. It's about protecting people in conservative environments without punishing everyone else for someone else's inconveniences.
  
  I wouldn't expect a site dedicated to a game like Mabinogi to be a porn site, of course not. It's obviously targeted at a young audience. Cute cartoon-looking characters, barely above 2D in graphical quality.
  
  I'm not so unrealistic.
  
  But, we are hosting Vindictus as well, and that does seem to draw a more mature more elderly crowd (read: not senior citizens, I'm saying just ... older.). And when we move? Well, who knows what kind of crowd we'll bring, or what kind of site we'll be.
  
  I've seen this feature at another extremely popular forum I'm a part of, and it works great. So, I figured it should be implemented here as well.
  
  No, not so I can have pornography in my signature - to be honest, I probably wouldn't have full on nudity even if it were allowed. Maybe a little slightly more risqué ecchi, but not far beyond that. But all of that is irrelevant. This was never about me.
  
  And 5? lol, really? Maybe if you're counting "the active" Bean Rua crowd, then sure, you're going to get a very small number. But overall, over the entire forum of nearly 14,000 members... 5...? You aren't even being realistic. C'mon now.

  Way too much *****ing in this thread.
  I like the idea and will probably do it but not while we're still mabination. The change away from "mabi"nation isn't the xenforo upgrade, I don't know when that will be but it's very far off (i.e: not this year).
