If someone is "photo epileptic" (strobe lights put me down) - then they should allready have the flash graphics disabled. This isn't pointed at you Lemur - but I am calling BS. Anyone with epilepsy knows this first hand.

Edit: Here is a step by step, if someone needs help - but I just don't see how you have the condition and don't know how to do this. I've had it all my life. I even had to spend some time in UCSF for treatment.

I think it was NaterBater or whatever his name is. It's was on last night thread "Sunday Night Football" contest!!

You can BS all you want, but it is a serious issue. The member that kept bringing it up has been suspended for unrelated issue. I JUST bought a new laptop, and do not have flash graphics disabled yet

I know how serious of an issue it is. I've had some bad ones that landed me in the hospital. I also have Chiari Malformation - so I am well aware of seriousness. But as someone with expereince in this - I can't imagine risking it and not disabling the graphics before surfing the internet (first thing I would do with a new PC). You will find those graphics everywhere. You are simply putting yourself at risk.

No BSing here I know you were serious...I have no reason not too, it's others who like to stir things up like not believing in someones word!!

I'm in the process of doing so. I know it is very risky to have them enabled.

I cant believe all this happened while I was off for 1 day.....lol!

Never did I think The Hitler Smiley Face or The Penis Llama would cause this much of a problem....But I guess I understand Nate's point....But I laughed my ass off when I saw the Hitler Smiley and the Llama!

I cant remember in the time that I have been a member of this forum so many suspension in such a short amount of time..... Hopefully when everyone comes back all will be better and we can move on as a community....

I wish there was a section were we could read the deleted threads.....lol!

IronMonkey415 · 11-22-2010, 10:08 PM

I'm suspended for constant bumping of my thread.

mwheeler27 · 11-22-2010, 10:26 PM

I'd like to point out that all this happened, even though I was away for a few days, (not suspended either).

It looks like some of the regulars found someone else to pick on...LOL!

Can't we all just get back to hobby talk and get away from the personal insults and name calling now. That sounds like a good plan to me.

nuggetsman28 · 11-22-2010, 10:29 PM

I am so proud of coming up with the name penis Llama

ilovethelakings · 11-22-2010, 10:34 PM

I am still trying to figure out how I got suspended for what was nothing more than two toys humping (very Robot Chicken-esque), while others have posted, yet were never suspended, for extremely racy stuff, such as a well-known member who posted the plastic phallus/themadbacker pic (which was really funny I gotta say) got probably nothing more than a warning.....if even that.

I saw that you had been suspended, I was wondering what that was about, thanks for clearing it up.

nuggetsman28 · 11-22-2010, 10:40 PM

Did the Captain get a permanent Ban?

g8rzfan · 11-22-2010, 10:46 PM

I won't say that it was something rated "G" (hardly pushed past "PG" really), but dang, it wasn't ban-worthy. I might push things a bit from time to time, but I would never intentionally try to do something that would be totally offensive. I think somebody just got sick of me asking for things to be clarified to why things were done.

To let you Know I was totally offended by the Stormtrooper on the Transformer... All those nuts and bolts getting slapped around. My God man what were you thinking....A very sick man indeed.

Could had been worse. At least it didn't involve the llama thing.

Because it was the one of the most freakin hilarious things a mod had probably seen. I posted a "I dropped the Soap, will you get it" picture that only lasted a few minutes. I am still traumatized from that.

Penis Llama and Banana Hammock are two of the best phrases used here on BO this past year. Congratulations!

Must had been one heck of a pic if you traumatized yourself.

But those are sound words of advice!

Must be something about the 916, couldn't agree w/ you more.

TrueNE_09 · 11-23-2010, 04:21 PM

Isn't Blake the one who said "he must have croaked" about PapaJim before we found out that he had actually passed away, when everyone was asking where he was? I noticed the thread (fortunately) got changed after that... What a jerk that person is.
