Re: All you want is in the limo
Point taken, Si.
I just thjink the rules are being enforced to the extreme. After all, it wasn't a porn site I linked to, but a R&R photo site which happens to have a few pics of nude women.

You have seen the images so you know it was more than that. Maybe that's why Alice was trying to hide behind a curtain.

What did Alice have to say about the topless woman in the Poison video?
Anything I say or write is my own personal opinion, no matter who agrees or disagrees with me.

She wasn't having sex with anyone so it wasn't an issue.

Tell it to the owner of the site. He sets the rules. If you don't like them, you can leave.

The internet is awash with pornographic images and filthy language. I'm certainly not a prude, but I like the fact this board is kept this way, makes a refreshing change.

Anyone who has spent any time with me will know I swear like a trooper, so it certainly is NOT that I am offended by language.
I've said it before but will reiterate.
Alice doesn`t swear on stage or in interviews.
The original sickthings mailing list didn't allow bad language either partially for that reason and it's a tradition I have sought to continue here.
Once you allow things to slip, more and more people will start doing it and it just becomes unpleasent, especially when we are relating to each other in plain text without body language and expressions etc which is a large part of how we comunicate in the real world. It becomes easier to misconstrue what is being said and take offence.
In the end I just think it helps keep a more pleasent atmosphere on the board.
Re: All you want is in the limo
And I, for one, applaud you for that Si. Like WHW stated, it is nice to know that there is at least one place I can come and not be assaulted by that stuff.
Progressives are scariest thing on the planet.

Re: All you want is in the limo
There are plenty of examples of people being very rude to each other here without swearing. Whether you are called ignorant or a stupid mf, doesn't make any difference to me.
Whether Alice swears or not doesn't mean Jack s*** ( ) to me either.
I still feel swear words can help express certain feelings, so I think (and I know it's all up to Si), that the rule should be not to be personally rude to other Sicktings, no matter which Words are used.
Anyway, it was not swearing, but sex that moved this thread off topic.
If the topic (or link) is AC related, why should it be censored ?
I just don't get it.
I Actually don't beleive that sexual censorship is about protecting kids, but rather to protect the parents so they don't have to explain to their children why adults are doing these "strange tings".
After all, sex is far more natural than violence.
Don't get me wrong, I do have great respect for the poeple behind this site, which is without doubt the best source of AC info.
I just wish it had more freedom of speach.

Re: All you want is in the limo
Oh yeah, Si you mentioned the Google Black listing issue.
That does make sence.
Question is then: Should you consider this site to be an "adult" site to make it a free democratic site ?
After all, how many Sickthings are under 18 ?
Again, not critizising just suggesting.

Re: All you want is in the limo
No. Any adult content would always be minimal anyway so it's really a very minor thing just to be aware of.TodayMueller wrote:Oh yeah, Si you mentioned the Google Black listing issue.

And who ever said this site was a democracy???

Re: All you want is in the limo
Fair enough, Si.
I will take care.
The site I linked to has lots of AC pics apart from the "adult" ones, from their/his visits to Copenhagen in 71, 72, 74 and 75.
interesting stuff, I just wanted to share them.
Interested fans can Google "Jorgen Angel Alice Cooper" and find them.
The search will also reveal a Utube video of the photographer telling about the night Alice invited him to join the band in a night on the town.

Re: All you want is in the limo
Didn't Alice use Naked woman in imagery in the 70's As far as art was concerned...? Although very small he did use it.
I think all this is subjective and used to gain publicity. I see no harm. I like that this site has been regulated. Unlike Blabbermouth.net which has changed formats due to the trolling. Great Job to Si.
