    john, i am not saying at all that i am disturbed by the pictures. But, there is a time and place. This is not the place. This has been discussed as nauseum. Threads have been closed and people have been banned over it. I am just saying to respect the forum. There is precedent that Polk does not want this stuff around. It seems some try to push the envelope and see how much they can get away with (not unlike the trolls in my opinion).

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    Actually, GG, it just might! I cannot say what CP was like more than two years ago, but possibly the most disturbing, aggressive post I have witnessed was made by speakertweakr (IIRC) about two months ago. Whether that was his name or not, he attacked Gebby44 verbally, in no uncertain terms and for no apparent reason that I can remember, and was reported. Lightman referred to it as the fartbag thread, and wanted to abdicate from the throne of A$$holia, since he didn't want to maintain a similar level of verbal profanity (his profanity can be funny, at least to me and a few others, but this was no laughing matter).The thread was locked and he started a new one with a similar tone.

    In any case, I don't think he was here for a full week, but after that one night of abusive posting, he was gone in the morning. His profile seems to have been erased, and so have his threads.

    Further reading: http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?t=82431 Where The Sovereign Lord of A$$holia Beseeches His Lowly Subjects to Allow Him to Visit His Regal Justice Upon Those Who Might Sow Dissent Within His Realm.

    Keiko,

    The third guy from the left in that second pic looks like a colleague of mine did about 10 years ago...he's divorced and still in good shape--girls? I am of course, joking...but only in part!

    Not afraid at all. I just find you to be hypocritical calling for the action of Club Polk to ban a troll when some would argue that your posts violate the same rules that you are asking to be enforced. I enjoy the pictures of the women, I just don't think they have a place here. No more, no less.

    Oh please get over yourself there is no comparison, thats like saying a guy jaywalking should receive the same penalty that a mass murderer does :rolleyes:

    And besides I dont think Mike is breaking any rules here, the former TB thread got shutdown because someone posted a not so tasteful pic which from what I can see Mike hasnt done here.

    Some aren't bad, but do you really consider this tasteful?

    I wonder if those pearls are cultured or are fresh water? Actually I personally dont see anything wrong with it, its a pic of a model in a swimsuit modeling something not sure if it's the rod and reel or the boat.

    Far more tasteful then a lot of car show model pics I have seen at least she is wearing proper attire for an ocean enviroment.

    Tasteful and tasty. The world would be a much better place if it were full of good looking, in-shape, women in thongs. There would be no fighting in the Middle East, and dogs and cats would live together in peace. Thong power is the answer!!!

    Also, I am still looking for my thong remote control. Another great invention. ;)
