Some of you guys are making it incredibly difficult to browse nation in public. I mean, I thought back at home I could just adblock your vulgarities but not here I can't.

I'm looking at you, Christian.

Wasn't bad enough with all the animu moe going on but man, thats just a whole new level of unacceptable public display.

Call me a hypocrit, but at least you're not forced to see my signature with every post.

And sure, I can turn signatures off, but then it leaves avatars. I'm looking at you, Xiyamae.

I'd complain about Tiffany's icon too but its just tiny enough to be unnoticeable.

You're a faggot, you know that. Now I can't open this thread anymore.

Edit: I just turned EVERYTHING off. Hope you're happy. Dick.

Or maybe I have a point.

I'm not just picking on christian because his avatar has a man's ass on it and I'm a HORRIBLE HOMOSEXUAL. I know we've all been over this but seriously, nation is a site with ACTUAL 12 year olds going "I'm 12 and what is this"

And really, its not very fun to be displaying any of these images while there are like 20 people just passing by me to my back.

The Staff here is currently discussing this, among many other... things...

We'll let you know the result.

But as a footnote, please, in the future... do not make threads (or posts) singling out members of the community (that includes staff members), if even only for examples of your cause. I feel that it creates friction among the community and is not an acceptable nor appropriate thing to do. Hostility fractures us as a whole, and that is not something that we want to encourage.

Some of the behavior in this thread alone, I feel crosses heavily into the border of very unacceptable here...

Mabination is not 4chan. Every section of this community has not become Bean Rua. Please keep that in mind in future postings, and that goes for everyone here.

Everyone has gotten quite hostile as of late, and it is not something I think any of us (not staff nor members alike) enjoy seeing. That's not what this community was meant to be.

We're having some heavy talks behind the scenes right now, and we'll let you know when we reach clear conclusions, but it may be days or even weeks before something of that nature comes to clear fruition. It is quite a serious debate that we are having.

As for your concern, it may surprise you to hear me say this, but I completely agree. I feel that currently there are things that would not be appropriate in work nor in school, and those things should not be acceptable here either, my signature (and Pervert of the Year badge) included (But this is not limited to imagery alone, but attitudes and behaviors as well). At least, not while we are what we are.

I digress. As for the issue at hand, as I say, we will update you as an update occurs. Please do try and keep in mind the other things that I've said here though. I think it's important for the community and all of us as a whole.
