Tomorrow, I’m going to start locking the misc ‘hot girl’ threads. This thread is your opportunity to tell me why I shouldn’t.
Because were going to start new ones anyways
Those will be locked as well.
then well have every member make his own thread, daily, you wont keep up!
MUAHAHAHAH
First explain why youre closing them, weve been basically following the rules cept for a few exceptions.
Forum description:
I know that the final part hasn’t exactly been the most followed rule due to dumbasses who want to toe the line of decency…me personally I haven’t really posted in either of those threads or look at them much. But still I like to make an arguement.

There goes the threads :sad:
Just dont lock the asian girl threads.
But why? If you do that then Image mishmash will be completely dead. :sad:
I see where you’re coming from, Rei. But this is the designated subforum for that kind of thing.
If we start an ‘image’ thread in GD, the mods will move it here. Closing those threads just means less traffic around these parts, and its kinda dead around here as it is.
Btw are you going to FFA for the 3s qualifiers?
That is fine. If you start an ‘image’ thread, it should be here. However, IMM as of late has become a sub-forum of srk where everyone posts half naked women. I, personally, would rather see this sub-forum become more of a pixel-art section, rather than a masterbation-fest.
Truth be told, srk doesn’t ‘need’ a sub-forum for half-naked women. This is a family oriented site devoted to fighting games and fighting game tournaments.
Now, I realize that the majority of fighting game fans are 15 year old virgins that love to post about, “omg how hot blah blah blah blah fap!” Seriously, there are better places on the internet for this sort of thing than an all ages fighting game site.
The ‘hot girl’ threads push worthwhile threads off the page, and make this a less interesting place for people interested in art.
I will be there. I have made a few bets on some of the matches.
sigh…
i could understand that youre doing this for the fact that some over protective mom went to the govt. and made bush sign a bill saying SRK cannot continue to let it’s members post pictures in the sites for any reason.
please think this over. at least have a meeting w/ your fellow mods before you can everything. couldnt there be an alternitive forum where you can have it like only SRK members 16 and up can enter without have to be a premium member or some dumb shyt like that? it’ not fair i tell ya. it’s not fair. do i need to post a thread in general discussion to sign a petition to prevent your beasting of our threads? this is freedom of speech, dammit, and i wont let you kill my/our dreams. especially not on black history month. :nunchuck:
I have discussed it with other mods. I have thought it over, and I’ve not started beasting yet. I’m giving people an opportunity to give me valid reasons as to why those threads bring up the quality of this sub-forum.
Seriously, there are alternative forums to srk that you can find much higher quality babes than what is in IMM. I’m saying to go there. In fact, there are forums that you can google to find that don’t have a per member attachment limit like srk has.
If you feel that getting a petition going is what you need to do, then have at it. Do what you must.
Oh, and by the way, there is no freedom of speech here. This is srk. You are free to make your own forum, but for now if you are posting something on srk, it must fall within the guidelines set forth by the cannons and enforced by the few dozen people that they have made into mods.
If you feel that I’m out of line as a mod, bring it up with them, and have them remove me as a mod. As I said, do what you must.
you could just be more specific about what you want a forum to be like. IMM is too open to diffrent assumptions to what shyt can or cannot be posted. if you, rei, only want to see people drawing and making tags/avatars then say that! what your doing is resonable but incorrect. there has got to be another way to get around all of this. hey, take Koop out of GM and let him mod a general image forum meaning it will take on what IMM is now but giving back what it once was…huh? also i think your doing of this over a few doods cryin’ about what IMM once was. FD aint like it was back when i first came to SRK. GM isnt the same aswell. it’s diffrent strokes(no pun intended) for diffrent folks. If toys r us can sale resident evil, manhunt, socom, the play boy mansion, and rumble roses…then you SRK, a family site, can have some better ideas than “fuk 'em”.
I’m not doing this because of the people crying about what IMM has become. Rather, Shin Kairi’s thread is the straw that broke the camel’s back. Make no mistake, I do think that the hot girl threads spice the place up, but as of late, it has gotten stupid. I liked this place much better when akumachan was a mod. At least then the guys around here didn’t act like it was a locker room. There was some sort of self-respect and taste thrown in with the hot girl threads because everyone knew that a female mod was watching.
I’m interested in removing lots of the rules here in IMM so that this place can be more interesting, but those rules can’t be removed if suddenly this place gets overrun by T&A. This place is dead, and needs some healthy changes.
Personally I do feel that the image threads in general has created a niche community in here that basically has Million, TIS, and White Shadow posting in here prolly more fucking often than the other forums. But I do have to agree with Rei here.
I’m not one to shit on people’s parades, but the only appeal it seems so far for the image threads is to basically becoming a place to show off the ass you found on the net to your friends, on a forum that you like. I don’t know if it’s because of the comradary or the community or if it’s like a fetish where OMFG I’M GETTING AWAY WITH POST THIS HOT CHICK I’M TOEING THE LINE, but I think that at least with IMM, they have to get back to it’s roots as an image forum where we post our own creative stuff, (even though I think that the F.A.Gallery has already facilitated that to a certain degree)
But what I find most amusing is the “Adults only” section of srk.com. Really, I don’t know how the fuck you are going to regulate that short of sponsering Adult Bouncer Pass to gain access to a forum to post risque photos. And even if people are on board, I don’t think that’ll be the best choice for the community for the fact that half of the fun of posting shit in a general forum has suddenly become more specific, thus lessening the feeling that you shown everyone your hot picture down to, a select amount of people.
But once again, Rei is right. There are other websites out there, albeit it won’t be with your friends on SRK.com, you can make new ones. Herv has an especially perverted sense of imagination, just don’t click on their “Most Disturbing Hentai” thread.

Maybe you guys should have one thread for naked bitches. All your anime, black/rican, hot girl/whatever in ONE thread. Instead of 5 threads of the same things in general.
so i’m missing something here…what’s making this all stupid? is it the fact that there’s more than one thread that basicly has the same motive but diffrent taste, thus, making it Patrick ? or it’s stupid cuz looking at females is exactly that…stupid? i need more info on that…
i understand that but basicly it was just a brain storm. not a cool idea for a new gaming system. in all honesty, i have not been in IMM very often as maybe all the other guys in here but i’m just goin’ what I’VE SEEN initially(like June of '04). so i geuss then if you want MJ back so badly then lets just bring him back as LeBron James.
why they gotta be naked? anyway, that’s a preety good idea but it’s like going to store to buy just one thing but i gotta climb through monds of crap that i’m not intrested in first. there’s a reason for seperation, SK. also like some doods like boobs and sum doods like booty so keepin’ it seperate is makin’ a nerds life just a lil’ bit easyer. also, since i’m the only guy foolish enuff to “try” and defend pron then in a way i fold on this subject of avatars vs pron, when i was once like SK, combining the two. i made good avatars but thy where just beasted by Ronin…it’s the circle of life, i guess. :sad:
What? So it’s been like the way you see it now, since June 04?
yeah,…minus the thread hate that’s currently goin down.
but it got a lil’ worse because of the “gaian invasion”.
Man I sure as hell am not one to complain about pictures of beautiful women, but IMM really is turning into a softcore porn site. We already have niche threads to cater to specific folks out there. Black / Rica, Asian, Anime, whatever.
Go to 2ch/ 4ch / waka / for that.
