Hmm...my opinion doesn't mean much in that matter, but moderating 'taste' in the funny picture thread doesn't seem like a good thing to start.
they probably don't want the funny pictures thread to turn into 4chan. there are a lot of pictures that they let slide that are tasteless. that picture of the african kid though (and subtitle) was just horrendous. not sure how anyone can find the child's suffering to be humorous.

i think in the case of the 2nd one, it wasn't warned because he had other pics in there? also the poster has over 7k in posts as opposed to the first one's 70 posts.. that's at least what i think happened here. *shrug* i'm more leaning to my first reason in it..

It's mostly got to do with just being unlucky with getting caught by a mod who's having a bad day. It's like meeting your girlfriend when she's PMSing hard: you don't know why until you see the red.

Not bad, not bad at all. How long have you been sitting on that one?

Well, I just got warned by P4ndemik for reposting an image that was already three time in the thread without anyone saying anything. Apparently a guy getting shot (that means, a lot of red from a ms paint edit) at the end was bad.
I guess I'll stay away from that thread?

It was an image of a fake, but very real looking news reporter having his head explode taken from a well known piece of footage from I don't even know where. The mspaint-edited pictures of xzibit preceding that one that you hint were the offensive material were hardly offensive.

Even ignoring wether the image was NSFW or not, quoting a picture and then reposting the same picture is kinda annoying. Reposts happen, but I don't see the diference between doing that and simply discussing without adding a picture, the picture itself is completelly meaningless. There's enough people just posting the first image they can find just so they argue about something. If the point of the thread is no talk, just funny pictures, that boundary is already stretched enough.

Are you talking about the politician that killed himself on air or something else? Stupid question to ask if you said you can't remember it.

I don't remember exactly what the context was and I don't really care to google "head explosion" or something like that in order to find out where it came from lol.

Juanald was just banned by TheMango.
That account was created on 2011-02-11 22:49:35 and had 354 posts.
Reason: incessant shitty trolling
Aahahahahahahahahahahahaha YES! I was getting really annoyed by his posts. It seemed that sometimes he just crept out of under his bridge and started making a ton of posts about how LZgamer and Machine are bonjwa's, and that Stephano is some horrible noob who only won a few weeklies. It was painful.
It was very elaborate, too, for a troll. He posted in a lot of threads, including some obscure ones that don't normally get a lot of traffic.

Oh right I forgot to check back on that one to see what he was doing. I noticed it when I saw racism and hoped for some creative balance whine (but alas)

I think you are talking about the pic that is a screen shot from the scene in "Scanners" near the beginning when the dude uses his mind powers to blow up the guys head...it is awesome.
...and I think that the quote is talking about R. Budd Dwyer who shot himself on live television. I remember that happening when I was a kid, but forgot about it for a long time until someone mentioned it on the internet and I had to find out what he was talking about...only to remember the news story from my youth.

In the end, those are only warnings. For pictures like the Modern Warfare baby or those involving gore, I think it's good that people are warned when they near the edge. But I doubt this would turn into bans, right?
I actually like the MW picture, it's a joke, but with a razor sharp edge that we'd all be better cut by.

That account was created on 2011-08-28 05:31:33 and had 10 posts.
Reason: Eight out of your ten posts are threads telling the world that you're streaming. Every single one of them is then closed after a few points. Is there something you're not getting here? Stop making these threads.
OMFG!!!! LOL!!!! I NEVER THOUGH YUGIOH WOULD GET BANNED!!! Quick Question: Maybe he doesn't speak english, and doesn't understand that he's not supposed to make a thread every time he streams? Or has he been told this before?
I think he'd be better served by letting him know that his stream automatically shows up whenever he starts streaming and that he doesn't need to create another thread to stream.
