*Sigh* It has been awhile since I've done one of these so I feel it's about time torant about a few small annoyances that are eating away my patience and tolerance of certain things. So kick back and relax...It's time for another G4 Forum Rant!

Walking the Thin Line Between Appropriate and Porn

Let's begin with "certain" pictures that posters are currently using in their sigs. These pictures contain women with very little to nothing on (for example, the picture with a girl only having a SNES cconsole/controllers to cover her), anime pictures of women with unnaturally large breats (for example, the picture of the anime girl with a extremely tight black bikini top on), and anime girls with strands of hair covering them. All, which sadly, fit in G4's sig stanards. Guys...I know it's the male nature to be attract to things like this and want to view them but do you have to use your "near porno" pictures on a public forum?

Using pictures like this can have a number of reactions. Some people might feel uncomfortable around you, thinking that you're a pervet. Is that how you want to view you as? It also can lead to disrespect from female posters who see your sigs. Some pictures are some what offense since they basically make women look like sexual objects which isn't true. You guys need to learn two things:

1) There's more to a girl than her breats and how little she wears.
2) Just because the picture fits in the standards set by G4 doesn't make it appropriate.

Adding Firewood to the Flames of Hate

For the past year now, bashings and flame baits have become much worse and more frequent. I understand that some of you out there have strong feelings against a certain person/company/game/series...but that doesn't mean that it's alright for you to make a thread that is targeting something you highly dislike just because you can. Threads like this and this lead to bitter agruements, hurtful words, and offenses with some outrageous comments being far too personal.

Threads are now containing large numbers of pointless "attacks" against other posters or the thread creator. All threads like this and 90% of the replies are made up of nothing more than things like:

* You suck
* Abbreviations of offense sentences
* Pictures with abberviations or even worse, cuss words including the F Bomb

What Can We Do to Make the Forums People Friendly?

Anyone who reads this rant...I'm asking you to please help fix these problems. You can do this in many ways:

1) Ask people to take down "near pornographic" pictures
2) Report threads containing flame bait and have gone too far
3) Don't make flame bait threads or use "near pornographic" pictures
4) Don't add fire to the flames: Don't reply to flame threads and if you do, don't be an idoit. Use logic, reasoning, and facts to back up your case so that at least you look better.

It would be nice to have it back but that shouldn't be a top priority.
