There was a general consensus between the super moderators and forum manager that the image is unsuitable for the forum. It's also clear that a number of members agree. There may be a vocal few (yourself included) who oppose the decision, but can you really speak on behalf of the hundreds of members who visit each day, as well as the prospective members taking a look at the forum for the very first time?

I don't see the need in potentially offending some users so that one member can have a slightly amusing (according to some) avatar that, when analysed, implies sexual content and promotes the degradation of women. I'm sure there are numerous other images that don't subscribe to the aforementioned.

To be honest, if members planning on joining see that avatar, they may think that this forum actually has a sense of humour and make it look like a decent place. Not this, unexplainable, serious, strict and strangely becoming less enjoyable dump that it's slowly becoming.

This is a teen forum, not a baby forum come adult forum.

Well as part of the Habbox Council I do not think we would be involved in decisions like that as it is something specific rather than general policy but in any event I support the moderation department here. This forum is for people of 11+. That cartoon would not be allowed on pre-water shed TV and certainly I have never seen anything like it in the Simpsons. :S What games of 11+ would you see these sorts of images in? :S

Apart from innuendo of what Mario is doing, the female charactor appears lifeless/drugged so that is not a very nice interpretation is it? It portrays all sorts of adult themes if you actually take a minute to study it. Those who find it funny well that's fine but I don't and I do have a sense of humour. Thanks.

What Simpsons do you watch? They have sex often and make dirty quotes. Homer has 'de-meaned' a woman by pinching her bottom and drooling (which was infact a sweet) but the same none less. The Simpsons Movie had Marge and Homer having sex infront of animals, thus the horrified faces and Homer and Marge have run around naked when they had sex in a windmill. They've even shown Bart's penis in the film "/ And that's a 12A

Wow this has gone too far..

Its only a avatar which is funny. (Y)

Personally i lol'd at it as it gave something to laugh about. Find me a 11yr old who finds this "unacceptable" ta.

Thats not the point - It would not be shown on pre water shed TV and so is not suitable for this forum. I don't really think you understand the image properly and how it is portrayed. Gomme is they decide to change the forum to 14+ you have a point.

The Simpsons Movie is rated 12A... It actually shows Bart's penis in one of the scenes where he skateboards naked, and as stated, they ahve sex quite alot and children watch it...

I find you'll find more 11 year olds would find that funny as they probally play Mario then find it unacceptable, rememebr 11 year olds think "penis" is funny. :rolleyes:

Hmm not exactly the same thing I don't think - this is an image that could be taken as someone committing a violent sexual act on a female who looks dead or drugged? It is a very odd image.
Yes Hollywood - please don't rolleye me :@ Agreed but they would not see that image as older more mature teenagers do and quite honestly you need to say why it is not offensive. I have told you why I think it is. Tell me why it is not?

[kk.]

In the Simpsons, Homer harassed a woman and it could be taken the wrong way, so it's not that different. In Family Guy they had a gay sex scene and that's a 12A. The avatar suggests sex/harassment. In cartoons directed at 12A (children under with parental guidance), they suggest it and even do it. So it's not really that discusting when compared... Especially with such a small image

Lol to me it just looks like Princess Peach is bending over happily receiving what mario is giving her I agree with Gomme the forum has become extreamly strict latley and that has resulted in my expearence as a user being less fun and I always feel like I have to think twice before posting as I'm treading on egg shells ...

Sorry don't agree with either of you here as much as you post. The female is not represented as happy as far as i can see. She is portrayed as a 'rag doll'. This forum has not become stricter - this sort of image has never been allowed. You are however entitled to your opinions as I am mine.

They don't like anything that's remotely seen as pornographic or innapropriate, I hope you can see this aswell.
