Not Funny!

edited October 2010 in The Shed
 Sky Poker is a 18+ site!

Even so it treats it clients like children!

1. Blocks out "naughty" words!

2. Frowns on adult humour!

3. Blocks pictures that family papers are quite happy to publish!

Who makes the rules for this site the ghost of Mary Whitehouse?

I still love the site and the people on it but I just needed to vent my frustrations!

    I find the best thing to do is i phone up my Gran, read out to her what im going to post and if she finds it offensive i scrap it, if she finds it funny i think about posting it, if she wets the bed i post it instantly

    I can give your her number but you will have to go round and change the sheets if she pisses herself

    Can we keep the dirty sheets or do we have to send them back?

    Donut,

    We are not trying to treat anyone like children, quite the opposite in fact.

    This community is attached the the sky name, logo and brand - this means we have a certain set of rules that all sky related forums have to follow. (Not following these would risk us being taken down).

    The fact of the matter is, some people find certain words offensive, be these words in a joke or any other post. Surely as 'adults' we can express our opinions without using such words.

    Our number 1 aim is to create and maintain a friendly and welcoming place that everyone can be part of.

    I hope you share this belief and will us achieve it.

    Thanks in advance for your understanding.

     I for one find the words Bolton Wanderers offensive but I would not expect you to remove them! No but serously when I tried to post computer generated pictures from this sight http://www.morphthing.com/ of what peoples children would look like they were bocked for being pictures of Minors! How would such pics offend anyone they are just a bit of fun!

    Can I post a picture of TJ Ho*ker?





    T.J is on the right and the bird in the middle is Heather Locklear...if I remember rightly.

    I can remember "spilling my soup" thinking about her.

    The Cop on the left was called Bill or Ken or something like that, if anyone is interested.









    ******LOL, Image Rejected******

    WHY???????

    eggs!

    Alternative swear words are funnier these days anyway. Swearing's just too de rigueur these days.

    Blimey. Crikey. Oh for flips sake. Gosh and darn it. You rotter. You simply beastly man. You scoundrel.

    Liking the "spilled my soup" anology though Em :-) New one on me. My vocabulary is now enriched.
