How about a seperate thread for said pics?

It works well on rennlist, with a strict no frontal nudity policy

I like the RPT, but it has clearly become NOT random. Every third or fourth posting is some very risque chick pics (normally I wouldn't complain, but it's not in the spirit of the thread past a certain point). It's not random. It's become predictable - and made it NSFW. Some of those pics (particularly the ones by one or two posters who feel the need to do it over and over and over and over) are clearly NOT PG. They'd be PG-13 at best. Not to mention this is a site that's linked to Wayne's business. I suspect some of his potential female customers wouldn't feel comfortable knowing that one of his most popular threads was one that seems to objectify women repeatedly.

Heck, my own wife has a very cool, laid-back attitude about most things but even she commented about how the RPT had turned into "the kind of thing you'd expect from a bunch of salivating horny frat boys". Is that the way we want to repay Wayne for paying to keep up this site for us out of his bottom line? Once in a while, fine. But it's WAY too regular, often and predictable to be "random".

In general I agree with "if you don't like something, don't watch/view/listen to it", but I just find the constant deliberate snubbing of noses at Wayne's generosity here and his few simple and clearly-stated rules to be pretty juvenile and frankly, stupid.

There was a thread the other day about why Pelican is so superior to that other P-car site and the general consensus seems to be that one of the advantages is that we don't have an over-abundance of heavy-handed moderation. Well, if that's going to continue to be the case, we need to self-moderate and self-police ourselves a bit better and not act like a bunch of a-holes. Keep that in mind before you post some of the pics guys.

"This is raunchy but it's funny" - is that REALLY worth posting?

"This is crude, but some people might get a hoot out of it" - is it REALLY worth posting?

"This made me laugh, but it might be offensive to some" - is it REALLY worth posting?

C'mon. Most people know when they're being d*ckheads, "toeing the line" or deliberately "pushing the limits". Similarly most people know when they're deliberately posting something to incite a reaction from people with a different point of view (it's called "baiting" or "trolling" and it's the reason Mr. Byron isn't with us this week). How friggin' hard is it to be RANDOM and post stuff that is "PG", safe for work/spouse/kids/grandmothers looking over shoulders?

C'mon guys - just apply some gray matter before clicking that "post" button and we should all be fine. Just ask yourself "is this random" and "is this appropriate for a 'PG' audience". Ain't that hard.

P-O-P, i find it amusing that you, of all people are scorning others for bending/breaking the rules, when you yourself are constanty doing so by using profanity and name calling. clearly against the rules. maybe you should practice what you preach and ask yourself some questions before you post.
do you need to use profanity and name calling to get your point across?
will your profanity and name calling be offensive to others that might be reading the post?
if random pics has become so predictable, why dont you post some pics to add to the variety? you're pretty vocal about random pics, for someone that doesnt contribute to it. if you and others start posting pics of what you like, then there would be more variety in between the girlie pics.

Funny thing, do you think the moderators have to go through all this crap just in case??

Crap!?

This is art.

Lots of folks who have trouble getting onto the internet and looking at pictures without looking at porn. Pictures on the net that aren't of naked women are gay?
Why is that? rhetorical question, I know why that is.
You have ..... issues.
