Tim Dorr Veteran Posted June 12, 2002 Veteran Share Posted June 12, 2002 threads merged and chaos ensues :s - timdorr heavy moderating industries btw, we took this thing down for a reason. 1) people post links from sites that don't want their pictures linked. 2) These sites threaten to sue Neowin 3) Neowin goes bye bye.

nXP_151 Veteran Posted June 12, 2002 Veteran Share Posted June 12, 2002 Originally posted by iomayho oh come on..its just a fun place for people to post babes and talk about it .........thats all.....................i know there are lots of porn sites out there but thats NOT the purpose of a babe forum.......... plus there is no nudity on it so i think it doens't matter if you're 18 or not........................ I know it's fun, who doesn't like to see nice picture of a cick, but then again there are people who misused the forum, that's what we are most concern with.

Guest deadzombie Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Do you really think Neowin wanted to take the babes thread down in the first place? Since it's gone you know it's not coming back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.dan Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 i actually ended up here somehow through the babes forum.... if it weren't for them.... i wouldn't be here today nonetheless, i think that there should NOT be a babes forum because that's not what this website is all about. Its not like there are NO other places in the world wide web to find that kind of stuff. there are more than enough. neowin is a gem among the rest of its kind. it would be degrading to the site to see the babe forum come back. that's my $.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techquilla Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 well, it was worth a try....^^.........i just thought that getting the babes forum back would be cool, but if that's impossible, then it is fine with me..........^^ i can live without it.....

Guest deadzombie Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 OK, here's my vote... sp00nman and flyers1033 send me babes. That would fix this entire discussion in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunnyy4 Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 The babes forum, as far as I'm concerned, was taken down because of a comment to Neobond from this stupid troll named concerneddad (right?). Mods, please give us another chance... how about these for rules: 1) Images must be hosted on own web site. 2) Images cannot be embedded into the post. Instead, they must be linked. That way, if people don't want to see a pic, then they simply don't have to click it. 3) All pics must have their good parts covered up (you know what I mean.) Flame me, praise me, whatever! But I believe that the above mentioned rules will make an ideal babes forum if everyone sticks to those rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are millions of babe and hunk sites to be found if someone needs that stuff. If I want to look at hunks, I can look at some of the men I work with. I come to Neowin to read and learn. :D:D:D:D:D:D anita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
