There's a certain user with an animated male genitalia in his avatar. Is this acceptable?
Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Why not? I'm sure the same uptight prudes who care about evil anatomy would get mad about all the anarchism symbols too. Screw 'em, they can adblock it.

God dammit I just checked on a hunch and it appears he is talking about Matthew. Let it go, dude, this is just stupid.

My intentions are not ulterior. I prefer to be able to browse this forum in public places without male members littering the screen.

You sure like trying to control what other people say and do.

It's a private forum. I certainly hope the owners can control its content. If they think it's in the best interest of their service to display pornography, by all means. However, I will state my preference unremorsefully whether they happen to value it or not.

To address your statement for what it is -- a fallacy -- I will give you a firm no. I prefer individuals owning themselves along with their forum servers.

If people want to block people from posting pornography on their property, that should be their right.

Yes, I know it's a private forum.  But even if you don't have any power, your character comes out in your constant attempts to censor others.

That's your perspective. Sadly that is not a testament to its accuracy.

Yes, it is a private form, not however your private forum. Also nudity != pornography you have internet access as good as most other forum users to figure out if a cartoon Dick waving in the air really constitutes porn or just cheap comical graffiti.

It's not mine. It is Theymo's and he might value and agree with my opinion. All I can do is put it out there.

Historically, after seeing somebody trying to sell nude shots publicly for BTC and reprimanded, Theymos will likely agree with me.

You may be right.  It's unfortunate for the community that Theymos has an irrational attachment to you, and doesn't do anything to rein in your constant attention whoring and scamming.

It's actually not theymos's forum either. It's sirius's.

For the record, I messaged theymos asking him if my avatar was acceptable hours before this thread started. I consider it a work of original art that reflects a current event. I also have tons of other animated GIFs that do not involve flailing animated genitals that I can easily switch to if theymos asks me to.

What's the progress on the domain?

They were reprimanded? I must have missed that, as someone selling adult services that should have been a reprimand I received myself should it not?

I personally find a cartoon Dick less offensive than people forcing me to look st their face in any thread they post in, sorry self portrait people.

Back on a more serious note, just put Matthew on ignore you'll save the testy of us s fortune I Tylenol

To be more specific, the individual was posting shots right in the thread.

You're referring to Sabi and his enhanced Asian bride then. Being vague just makes you look like you have a poor memory or are too lazy to check you're facts.

Are you talking about that guy who posted what looked like a minor with a tattoo around her hoohoo that got edited by the mods?

Or are you talking about the guy posting TITS FOR BITCOINS in another thread that is still easily viewable?

I wager, that if a member is allowed to post photos of a woman's tits (both NSFW and illegal in some countries) then I should be able to present a work of art roughly based on a current event that I think reflects the feelings of the forum members.

This was way back when. Like when Bitcoins were just nickels and you could only purchase Spongebob stamps and pencils with them. Some guy flashed himself in his unkept glory and asked for Bitcoin donations. It was quickly removed.

The Android browser and this forum don't get along when doing long posts where actually proofreading comes into play.
