I thought the Reds were classy...

If you are worried that your children would be so affected by seeing some dancing woman's midriff, then you need to do a better job teaching your children respect for woman and the realities of sex. This sheltering mentality is just going to lead to more curious teenagers when they reach the age of making their own decisions.

 

I'm not saying that anything is fair game, but what is the big deal about a cheerleader at a game?

My kid is looking at your avatar and it offends me that you would subject him to that. Now he won't respect women.

 

As a parent you are responsible for monitoring your kid's internet activity. Nice try.

 

But isn't this supposed to be a child friendly message board? I know I got a message taken off and a message from a mod when I questioned A-Rod's sexuality with a nickname. What's the difference between what I said and your avatar? Nothing. You can't control your kids accessing a PG rated message board.

 

What's the difference? Personally, I don't think there is much, but it seems there are things the powers that be tolerate and things they don't.

 

I was called a "d*ck" w/o the * in another thread and the mods didn't say a peep other than to "drop it" to me. It's not like the rules are enforced here, other than selectively. I wouldn't read too much into the mods actions.

 

No, I can't control a kid accessing a message board. A parent can and it is their job, not mine.

 

I didn't think my comment was too bad either. And d*ck isn't the worst thing somebody could see. A girl like the one in your avatar is what a kid could see at the ballpark anyway and that's not including the cheerleaders. What's the big deal about that?

Just seems strange to me that a guy that is so worried about respecting women would have that avatar. Did your dad take you to too many NFL games with those evil cheerleaders during your childhood?

 

No I'm guessing it was being subjected to dancers during those immoral high school pep rallies.

 

I'm 18+ and parents are responsible for monitoring their kids internet activities.

 

Mocking people is the best indication of a fragile ego. I'll let you figure out who said that. Google won't help you. :wink:

 

seriously, adding an emoticon to the end of your posts does not make them any less offensive. you make me want to get premium again, just so i can ignore you. if you read my post in the "what's so good about premium anyway?" thread, you would realize how farfetched that is.

So, you know for a fact the mod didn't send a private message to the person who used the inappropriate language?

 

If you don't know something as fact, you shouldn't assume anything about the moderators of this site.

 

And when a moderator said that the bickering should be dropped, are you sure he/she wasn't referring to EVERYONE who was doing the bickering? Or are you assuming that because the moderators response directly followed yours that they were only speaking to you?

 

Don't assume.
