^I simply commented on your comment regarding what you perceived as a 'unique' situation and stated that I would drop it. But whatever,....... *shrugs*

That is why I take screencaps when I post here.

^That is fine, but many of you at one time have said you didn't care if a topic went a little off topic. I guess I would be curious to see what would happen if all of the posts that were off topic around here were all deleted. Anyway...... This isn't always the case, but many times universities are ...

However, they rarely bring in as much money as what's spent on them. It's going to be a very, very long slog for anyone to fundraise $165 million in today's economic climate. Whereas $165 million could go to improving science, art, maths, and various other wings that would benefit far more people t...

I have been reading the Audacity of Hope by Barack Obama. Man. He had my vote before, but damn! It's really good. This morning I read: And students can insist that their institutions focus their fund-raising efforts more on improving the quality of instruction than on building new football stadiums...

^The age at which you first start thinking about sex doesn't necessarily make you "mature" or ready to cope for the responsibility of sex.

^My last post was attempting to get it back on track in regards to age/child pornography debate. So I guess I am unclear about the final warning. The link you posted is kind of splitting hairs. I simply stated I believed there was a distinction between the two. Nothing more. I really don't understan...

AS, you probably missed it as I was editing it, but I stated why bringing up porn in fandom is relevant to this case and child pornography -- age.

A good portion of this thread was dealing with if illustrations could be considered graphic and how.

No, I wasn't clearly misreading MM's posts. I genuinely didn't understand what she was getting at in regards to some of her comments. While I respect your position as Admin, I don't care for some of the assumptions you are making regarding why I would question her. I have been civil in this thread s...

No, what I meant was that I view my site as a business in that I look at what my viewers want and I I try to accommodate them as best as I can. EO fans stated they had a wish to be able to post and share art because they found them quite wonderful. I thought "maybe I can give them just that.&q...

Actually, madonna, I've never mentioned the NSFW section any time that I was advertising. I think I mentioned it ONCE to your boyfriend in maybe my second or third PM back to him when we were discussing everything that the site has. *shrugs* The gallery opened with NOTHING in it and stayed that way...

^Let's think of it this way -- We have probably all seen caricatures of racial images. Depictions of Jews by the Nazis or maybe silly images of Native Americans or African Americans. While they are just illustrations, they still can be harmful. And while I'm not necessarily saying that hentai/ecchi ...

As per the link you provided, I'm sure any arrests have to deal with the selling of such material. Again, as I said, in my personal view of the matter there is no crime to produce and view hentai/ecchi. Selling and distributing is a different matter, however. Check out the reason given with the arr...

I'm not even sure if this is the same fellow I was referring to. Maybe it is more common than even I thought.

If you're arguing that high levels porn (ecchi/hentai/whatever your term) exposure leads to sexual dissatisfaction, than I'll be interested to see what studies you can provide that back up that assertion. That is not what I am saying, but admittedly, I am not always successful with projecting my th...
