Guest Franklin Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 wait a minute, I'm late to the party - so the nice tits thread is gone??? I periodically downloaded them, for anatomy reference. for fucking anatomy reference! LOL. on point: If the general thrust of this change is really just to do away with unabashed pictures of anuses and freshly milked titties I'm totally down; I don't need a resource on watmm for this stuff. pictures of that quality can easily be found NSFW link and nsfw link. I'm hoping that there isn't much more sanitizing that this though because frankly the weird random shit like Rambo's thread REALLY makes me laugh and is one of the highlights of the forum.

delet... Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Oh and while the site is being cleaned up, might I ask if we can get a stop to the stupid thread derailing and trolling in EKT (you know the threads I mean) and maybe curb delet's obnoxious poorly veiled sarcasm? Thanks! Hopefully I don't get banned for talking bad about a moderator. I don't know why you continue to think that i'm being sarcastic. Perhaps it's my use of those smiley faces or the emotive "heh", which to me only express that i'm happy, or find something amusing. They're certainly not expressions of ire, nor are they placed there in anger. You've probably been reading me the wrong way all these years. Injecting every post i make with a preconceived notion. Whereas dude, i'm actually a pretty easy-going guy. Sure, a bit deadpan. But i don't on the whole desire any harm to come to anyone on here. Sure when an argument gets political i can be pretty colourful in my expression of disdain for this or that concept. But most of the time you are clearly reading my all wrong. So how about a reboot on that now mate ;-] That was actually a pretty excellent answer. Thanks. I think you're right - I am probably misreading your "heh"s and winky faces as being extra smug or occasionally ill-informed - a character trait I have trouble tolerating in any authority figure. Your honest answer just now has more than made up for it though, and I promise I'll keep my negative comments out of the air unless something odd and extra drastic warrants them. Cheers. *sets the tone of the new relationship by buying a couple beers, and paying for the first round on the pool table even though he knows that he's gonna get caned, due to uselessness and lack of practise* ---- Also, if you think that i'm totally wrong about something. Say whatever it is, bust my balls, laugh at my expense, but whatever you do, do it out of love. ;-] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 edit: in response to franklins post yea my feelings exactly. mist other music forums are dedicated to one band and that band is active. if it weren't for ae, the artist subforums could be argued useless to an extent. but I feel like there is a much more intelligent, witty and genuine crowd here without most of the bickering nonsense of other music forums. you can have actual conversations here whether it's about the squelch at the 3:37 mark of an ae remix, nuclear meltdowns or interviewing a member. it's great in that sense but I don't think I should have a reaction to a gaarg post wondering if he got warned because he ms painted a guy pissing himself on a puppy.

chenGOD Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 yeah one picture of an unknown german military leader, whether it "pushed him over the edge" or not, seems a bit silly and banal for a banning. I hope it's only temporary. He was funny and intelligent and creative. It wasn't one picture - it was continued racist commentary (which was made invisible) topped off with a german leader who went on to be a soldi supporter of Hitler and his policies.

lumpenprol Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 wait a minute, I'm late to the party - so the nice tits thread is gone??? I periodically downloaded them, for anatomy reference. for fucking anatomy reference! LOL. and yet, I'm completely serious. I run a video game company and I would actually browse the thread for reference to use for female models. I liked it because it selected the hotties for me, so I wouldn't have to go scouring the web myself. If I want to get off, I prefer movies.

murve33 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Wrong ms-paint thread is doomed, right? Wow, I had watmm for sanctuary of some sort until now, it looks like it'll become another broken pillar of internet society. Sorry Joyrex, you were the man! Yea, is it doomed? While Gaarg's drawings probably don't fit the "Rules" criteria anymore, they were very creative. and to me, the idea of consolidating this forum to be focused on music and music alone is pretty depressing, especially when the music on whose foundations watmm was built has grown stagnant. This It's only about getting rid of the boobies. I think in joyrex's overwhelmed rush to reply to all your posts with justifications for the policy shift. He has diluted what this is about and so shifted the debate into members thinking that they whole site is being repositioned. When from the perspective of genban this is not what is happening. GenBan will continue as before, just with no bloody porn. heh. simple innit. No, we lost Rambo's armpit thread. A hilarious armpit thread that made great observations. It won't be the last good thread to be deleted either. man all you people talking about being at work and accidentally clicking on the wrong thread and OH MY GOD A PICTURE OF A GAPING ASSHOLE AND I GOT FIRED like what the fuck do you know how to use a mouse this has never happened to me, ever in re to this shit - idgaf either way but the idea that someone can like i dunno change the way a community acts is kind of fucking ludicrous. need to get back to the roots! how many people who post regularly were even here at the time you want to return to? how many of the artists this site focuses on have released albums worth listening to in the last 5 years? seems like the consensus is "two." so i guess in conclusions what are yr top 33 afx songs? Fuck. Summed up everything right there. ----- In regards to the Nice Tits Thread, and the removing of nudity: I think these threads were valuable to WATMM because we, as a community, could share our favorite tits, or asses, or fat tits. I don't give a shit about what someone on 4chan or another forum posts in regards to tits. But when you have several several like-minded people posting their favorite tits, you've found a masturbation goldmine. Fuck, I can't remember the last time I got off to a picture, but that thread made it happen. The reason I have stuck around on this site is because of the community. If you want to increase site traffic, make BOC or Aphex Twin release a new album. They're the reason I joined this forum in the first place. People will join for the artists and stay for the tits community. Since you can't make these artists release new material, you should create more featured artist subforums. Yea I know it's controversial for some reason. I'd love to discuss Merzbow for example. He has assloads of albums and keeps releasing new material. If you want profit, you're going to need to draw in more people. In conclusion, get with the times, and put the old people in the LTM subforum.

Dragon Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I was having a nap while most of the posts in this thread were made, fuck. Nine pages (@ 25 per page). I'm so exhausted after reading it that I'm finding it hard to form a real opinion. I suppose this is the beginning of a new direction for WATMM, whether better or for worse. I'd like to think that Joyrex knows what he's doing, so I'll just see how it goes. My opinion on the NSFW content previously on this site is kinda neutral. I almost never visited the Tit/Ass threads, and of NSFW content I have posted, I can only think of one image off the top of my head (a drawing I created, posted in Most Recent Artwork). I spend a lot of time on these forums discussing music, and that is what the forum is about, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaosmachine Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 It's not really a new direction, more like a course correction after a massive uptick in nsfw content over the last couple years. Seriously, I know most of you haven't been around here since the 90s, but porn threads were never part of the landscape. Also, it hasn't been mentioned yet, but virtually 100% of those pictures were copyright violations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baph Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 If the line is drawn at actual photographic depictions of nudity/sex, ok sure. But gaarg needs an outlet. What will happen if gaarg doesn't have his outlet? I don't even want to consider the axe-murdering/puppy-abusing possibilities. Do you want that on your conscience, watmm? Won't someone think of the puppies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They go after forums, too. c'mon, in that case, they would send you a cease and desist, and you would take down the image, or, if need be, the entire thread. But that doesn't seem to be what prompted the latest decision? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
