I got none saying different. Rhett said my only rule as a moderator was to do what I think is best for the forum. I did. Sorry if I offended anyone. _________________________ Tom Welch RKS #4868

I felt/feel that it is not appropriate for the forum, and demeaning towards women. If anyone disagrees with me please feel to PM me. Thanks, Kevin _________________________ Genesis 27:3 BSC-002

Instead, you go behind everyone's back, straight to a moderator. I find that a little underhanded and chicken-$h1t. I have had it with all of the pettiness! _________________________ Gary Howie RKS# 274 RKCC# 495 Death tugs at my ear and says: "Live, I am coming." --Oliver Wendell Holmes

Tom, there were many very positive PUBLIC posts after Gary's photos....those would seem to count as "saying different". _________________________ Always, buying, selling and trading. www.randallmadeknife.com

If folks have photos like the ones under discussion they want to post starting a thread in the Lounge would be the place to do it. That way if there are members that think they are not appropriate they can skip it all together. We could post some real high quality autopsy photos here but how many Randall Made Knife enthusiast would that turn away form the forum. I am not equating autopsy photos with those of women wearing revealing clothing. I am saying there is a place for everything and if there are members that do not think the Randall Forums are the place for such let's take it to the place that is. And I promise, not autopsy photos. _________________________ Tom Welch RKS #4868

But as I said, I won't be posting any more pictures and I am going to stop visiting this thread. It's amazing to me that, of all the offensive things that is said on this board, that someone finds $$models fully clothed as offensive and demeaning. :shrug: _________________________ Gary Howie RKS# 274 RKCC# 495 Death tugs at my ear and says: "Live, I am coming." --Oliver Wendell Holmes

Raindog Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/13/05 Posts: 1234 Loc: Coldwater, AL, These United St...	Kevin, if you find calling a spade a spade rude then I guess that I am rude then. I DID find the whole deal underhanded and I DID find it CS. At least I had the courage to say it to your face, not behind your back. I stand by the fact that if you had voiced your concern publicly, or to me via PM, then all of this might have been resolved. But this does prove the point that, if a few people work behind the scenes, instead of making things public, that the few can steer a group of many. As Tune stated, many people publicly enjoyed the pictures. But it is the behind-the-scence activity that carried the weight it seems. _________________________ Gary Howie RKS# 274 RKCC# 495 Death tugs at my ear and says: "Live, I am coming." --Oliver Wendell Holmes

I might also point out that the "Dead Sexy Knives" banner above shows and links to a bikini clad woman, wearing much less than the models that I posted. Who has complained about it? _________________________ Gary Howie RKS# 274 RKCC# 495 Death tugs at my ear and says: "Live, I am coming." --Oliver Wendell Holmes
