Porno Warning

I know I'm probably going to take a lot of shit for this suggestion, but I'm going to post it anyway. I spend a lot of time at work on the shroomery, and it isn't a problem. People can walk by my desk and not see what kind of site I'm on, and even if they could, no one where I work would give a shit about shrooms anyway, so it's pretty safe to come on here at work. On-line porn is another thing all together. Now I personally love porn, after all, I'm the superpimp, and at home I waste hours a night downloading all sorts of evil shit that I will go to hell for. But at work, people have a bad habbit of getting fired if there is even a hint of smut in the workplace. Lately there have been a lot of porn pics posted on the shroomery, which I'm cool with, and I would never want that to stop, but I've had a couple of close calls where women would be walking by my desk just as a giant pic of a girl getting tripple teamed pops up on my 21" screen when I thought I was opening up a relatively "innocent" post. My suggestion is to have the option of having some type of symbol next to a topic that has pics in it, so you will know not to open a certain thread while you are at work or in an environment where pics of girls eating each others pussies can get you into trouble. I hope this doesn't sound like I'm for censorship, cause censorship is the most dangerous thing in the world. I just thought that there must be lots of other shroomerites that want to be able to look at the Shroomery at work and not have to look over their shoulders while they do it.

Use a text-only browser when you're at work or something.

Yup, thats about what I expected, no doubt about that. But I definetly opened myself up for it. Is it me, or is Bivalve the most useless piece of shit to ever walk the face of the Earth? Oh well, whenever I think to myself that my life is not everything I want it to be, at least I can remind myself that at least I'm not nearly the pathetic, 24 hour a day on-line looser that he is. I wonder if he'll ever get laid by anyone except his collection of finger puppets? Not fucking likely.

Calm down there, son. You were too busy looking at the muscular man getting his penis sucked to see my great suggestion. See, you wouldn't have to look at the pictures then. And when you got to a non-porn-sensitive place you could reply to them and all that. Isn't it a great idea? Also:

Never mind this queer 13y/o little dipshit (hey, some of us were also 13y/o little dipshits at one point)... I've had the same problem, opening Shroomery threads at work to find that our fast connection has instantly planted a huge porn pic in the middle of my screen, just as my fat nosy co-worker is walking by. I really don't think it would be practical to try to enforce "content control" on the Shroomery, though. Just don't open new threads while someone's looking in your direction.

Thanks for the understanding wind_wraith. And I agree that it is a pretty impractical suggestion, I hate the fact that I even brought it up. I guess thats the price you pay hanging around a site that can be a magnet for retards who don't really get the point of the Shroomery in the first place. I keep telling myself that if your going to hang around 10 year olds, you can't get freaked out when one of them starts eating his own boogers.

You could always make it so your browser doesn't show you pictures. In IE, go to Tools, then Internet Options, then Advanced, then under Multimedia you can click Show Pictures. I'm sure you could do that same with Netscape. Now I hope this time you actually read what I suggested instead of skipping right to the gay porn. By the way,

Options: turning off pictures, like bivalve suggested. not browsing the shroomery (or the internet at all, for that matter) at work staying out of off topic discussion at work the last is probably the one you might like the best. in criticizing bivalve, you mentioned something about he's missing the point of what the shroomery is really about. welcome to the off topic discussion forum. it has nothing to do with shrooms. OTD is fair game for porn.

yeah!! take THAT, you pornophobic bitch!! wait i got another suggestion. how about you take a big cardboard box and make a sort of booth around your computer monitor. that way you could go in there and hide from everybody and they couldn't see all the porn you're downloading.

I have exactly the same problem, and I was gonna post a similar thread. Nobody's asking for censorship or anything, just a small warning for the nasty stuff. Personally, I think that's fair. take care

I think it's a great idea. Just some like, manual, OR automatic little icon to let people know that there are pics in the thread. Good idea Superpimp.
