Look, it's not such a big deal, but where do we draw the line? SV650.org is explicitly U rated, it's something that John Tapley has requested and more than a few users have applauded. So that's how it's staying, with plenty of opportunity for peeps to show other stuff on sites all over the net should they wish to. Do we always get it right? No to be honest, sometimes we make mistakes. All we do is try and keep things to within the rules. Trust me on something: it ain't easy.

arent all sv650 rider 18 or over?
whats the reason for U rating?
let the kids get their own forum, surely.

Basically to keep it clean so its work safe. Also because that is the express will of the site owner John Tapley. If it wasnt for him and several others there would be no SV650.org.

If I want to look at boobies I know where to find them. I dont purchase gutter press tabloid newspapers and I dont purchase bike magazines that have girls drapped over bikes. I want to look at the bikes not the girls and sometimes the boobies get in the way.

Yep I have no problem with that but its easy enough to forge an idenity isnt it ?

Just for a moment I could have sworn* I heard the sound of feet being stamped





*sworn as in "made a statement on oath", not as in all sorts of rude four letter words. Just wanted to be clear on that

...but this is no argument for censorship where adults are concerned, merely one for better parental control of minors.

I doubt Patrick would've posted it if he'd reaslised about the use of the f word, am I right? Seems that way from the response, anyway.

If we're going to keep this place U-rated, we'll have to ban Nutty Tart. So it's not all bad

While that might be true, do realize that there are children who use this site whose parents ride bikes, and they like to be part of it and see what's going on. So in some ways it's a family site, where parents can know that any content is already pre-approved and tightly moderated. Perhaps that's a little strange for a "bike" forum I grant you, but that's honestly the way it is.

Plus of course, there are many girls that ride bikes, who use this forum, and who appreciate the fact that it's not full of naked girls and all the other crapola.

The vast majority of people like the way SV650.org runs (even if some of them grumble a little sometimes ), so that's really the way it's going to stay.
