By the same logic that the epic NSWF picture thread was relegated to thread-hell (and the fact that I don't block ads at work), shouldn't a banner asking if I see a lamp or a panty-shot be.....not there? Even if it IS clearly a lamp?

Plus, it's designed to make people see a panty-shot. It's how it gets attention. | ||

I agree with the OP that it seems contrary to what TL is trying to maintain. It's more of a juvenile facebook ad rather than a progamer forum where (hopefully) everyone is more mature than that. Indeed, I don't think it should be allowed ;p | ||

removed Even if its supposed to be some kind of optical illusion, it's kind of inappropriate for a forum of this quality, I believe. edit2: Just google "lamp or woman is a lie" and you'll see a picture of it being a thong, but there's another very similar picture that shows it without the lamp. Decide for yourself, but my point remains that I think its an inappropriate and non-fitting advertisement for this forum. | ||

You can easily block all the ads, and I doubt you would get in trouble at work for using an adblocker. I use Opera. Even when I use Firefox I disable adblock on TL. | ||

Didn't know iccup admin was an insult lol. I guess it can't be any worse than TL admin though, right? | ||

As a volunteer force we had a number of douches join just to cause trouble. Mostly it's just people being mad because one of us didn't agree with them. But yeah, insulting an ICCup admin is a permanent ban, which is a bit harsh. Lots of people don't like us but refuse to use any other service. And when we have to make tough decisions (or even easy decisions) we end up getting flamed, then people get banned more/harder and they get pissed, and it keeps going. | ||

Got newbbaashed everytime, always had connection/lag issues (prolly my end), so that didn't last long. I'm sure I've easily watched 20-30 times more pro-BW than I have played BW (not counting single player). | ||
