and no one goes to the basement forum, its only been a novelty due to recent events.

I've generally never been a fan of catering to those fucking off at work either and have fought that fight on the mod forum. But the fact is a lot of traffic (and thus revenue) is going to come from people wasting time at work. So a choice has to be made, to alter rules to help that, or keep on keeping on and possibly hurt growth

Personally, I use my phone to access it at work, problem solved.

but how many people does this actually effect? less than 10? then again, that is 10% of the active posting i suppose.

and like most new rules, you think it will be followed/enforced?

awesome, so 2-3 posts? traffic during the day is down anyway and would be down even with these new rules because well...people are busy.

justin, you have stats for visits during the time of day?

Traffic during the day is actually picking up lately. Pageviews and ad revenue were way down. On a very nice uptick now. I'm not sure why you continue to argue your point. Is it that big of a deal that you just need to keep "racy" pictures in specific threads?

Dude, if you want to look at girls in no clothing, google it. Leave that shit off the forum. It's add nothing.

There are plenty of other places you can look at nudes at home. This is the only Ohio forum I post on during the day. Capiche?

This. It's a freaking joke that we need half naked ladies in random threads. Get a freaking life.

So do I for the time being, but I can't post/read nearly as much on my phone as I could with a computer.

I'm not saying ban boobs. I like looking at those at home too. All I want to know is when to expect them. If I'm reading a thread about tball, I don't wanna see boobs. If I'm reading a thread about Kate Upton, I want and expect to see them.

Pot meet kettle, you are one of the main reasons this site has been forced to go through changes lately.

I rarely even posts things like that except once in a blue moon so technically this has no effect on me. I just look at it from the outside and see changes being made that really wont make a difference.

Personally i would rather see the site move towards an older crowd instead of trying to stay with highschool sports. Start focusing on the pro level. Getting involved and starting fantasy leagues etc (not sure if you have the technical ability to do that on this site). I think that would be the best way to get new members/traffic.

you'd like your principal to see you looking at a bunch of girls in bikinis while you're at work?

If a NSFW image is appropriate for the topic of the thread, but the thread title does not have 'NSFW' in it, could we do a spoiler with an 'NSFW' alert?

Example:

Spoiler is NSFW:
