This is the same thing as opting out of NSFW threads. Don't like the possibility of stumbling upon a girl shaking her ass in a thong? Disable the features so it NEVER happens. It's simple.
Right, but then you'd miss out on Swish's daily gifs.

Can anyone explain why it's terrible to have nekid women, but it's wonderful to have bouncing boobs with a shirt on? Neither one has any relation to Everquest (unless you squint at Firiona Vie real hard).

It sounds like everyone in this thread wants to allow hard-core porn in signatures, with the only recourse being to disable sigs.

No you misunderstood my point. My point is, if you followed the logic in most of the posts here, it would lead to allowing porn. Just replace "bouncing boobs" (or anything to that effect) with "porn" in all of the responses and you'll see the exact same logic applies.

Which gets back to the one thing no one seems to be able to explain: why do we ban porn but not bouncing boobs? Both are clearly designed to arouse, neither has anything to do with Everquest, and if we're all adults here, and we can all just disable sigs, why not just allow both of them?

The problem here is that NSFW is basically a cess pit that I don't care anything about. However, I do care about signatures and avatars, especially when they contain information that I would like - such as links to resources, character information about a poster, or just funny to look at sigs. By opting out, I have to opt out of more than JUST NSFW sigs/avatars.

And again, we ban nudity / NSFW stuff from every corner of this forum except for the NSFW forum. Why is there an exception to sigs/avatars?

There is no exception. What we have here is a disagreement over what is NSFW. IMO, any NSFW avatars and sigs get dealt with very quickly. A couple of breasts in a bathing suit will never, ever be NSFW.

If your opinion is different, then take steps to restrict your content. Simple problem. Simple solution.

How the heck would that work when many have 20-odd characters? Holy schizoid!

And some characters might even be more debauched.

Wow, the responses here are so out of whack. He's not censoring anything, he's saying "we already prohibit nudity, how about we prohibit almost nudity also". For most grown-ups, that's not a radical statement.
No, most grown-ups are simply turning the options for images off and allowing the rest of the community to either do the same, or view the content as they please.
