but you don't know what's there till you open it, it's not like it had the word "rape" in the title, she has not been permanently banned, she's just received a smack on the hand so to speak

we are trying to make this place better for everyone to come and relieve stress, you've yet to explain why you have a problem deselecting SHOW SIG when posting in succession, either defend your stand or concede that this is the right thing to do for our dial up users, stomping your feet and hollerin' "I don't wanna" is not the way to go about it, it will mean that more people will get to enjoy more of the Roo, nobody wants to see someone's sig 10, 15, 20 times in a row, we post threads for others to enjoy, right?

Because I like my sigs and I want others to see them. Sometimes I don't remember to do it...they don't do this on other boards. (should I go on) How many complained about PV? I didn't...Brilor didn't...Rk didn't...Iceman didn't...Anna didn't...Lotty didn't..lol..did you? Did Essex?..Then who? Whatever happened to freedom of speech Squirt? There are people out there who were divorced as well..if I post a funny pic about that, and they complain, will I be banned? BTW, I"m not stompin' my feet, I"m speaking my mind...somebody has to do it!!

so you have to post your sig 10 times in a row for folks to see it? nobody's asking you to remove your sig Sadie and you've not spoken your mind until now, nobody is fonder of sigs than me and I'm doing this, I'm not asking you to do something I'm not willing to do myself, unticking SHOW SIG will not remove your sig from every post, only from the post it's done in ... if you can't see the difference in a divorce and rape, I'm sorry, nor will I name the names of folks who complained but I will admit to being one of the ones who thought it should not have been posted, however, I had no hand in the decision to ban her, freedom of speech is a freedom that's allowed as long as it doesn't impose on the freedoms of others, this was an insult to some, a truly painful thing to see for others

I doubt it, I can't comment on what might have made a difference as it was not me who made the decision to ban her, only 3 people have the authority to do that here, essex, Tim and Roo himself

I totally agree. When censorship starts, it snowballs. This was a picture of a cake for pete's sake..lol..rape is a sore subject for many I know this...but so are a lot of other issues, where does it end? I say bring PV back to the Roo..at least ask her, she may not want to, not that I would blame her one bit. If she's reading this thread I just want her to know that we all want her back..we love her and miss her. First a slap on the hand, but what's next...pepper on our tongues for saying bad words?..lol
