| Potentially inappropriate image |
Well, I think it's inappropriate, but that's your call. Latest Global Right Alliance update features a monkey urinating into its mouth. Kinda tasteless.
Todd, can I ask, do you think it's a rule violation or anything? I understand you may find it tasteless, which is fair enough and you have every right to not like it, but I don't see the justification for censorship because something is tasteless. It's not pornographic, or violent. The monkey is doing that from its own volition and is not being harmed. To me, it's a silly monkey.
Of course, your forum, your rules, but of course if you set a precedent that someone finding an image tasteless is worthy of censorship, then you should censor any image anyone finds tasteless.

I have sent a private message to GRA's representative regarding this. I do not like the idea of editing another region's foreign update. However, I also respect the views of citizens on this forum, and that includes what they find appropriate and inappropriate. I feel that the best course of action here is to allow the GRA itself to reconsider its use of the image. All other consulates and embassies should be careful in what images they choose to use in their updates. If enough complaints are generated, the administration team and the moderators will have their hands tied.
It could be argued the image is NSFW....
Thankyou Sandaoguo, I appreciate the approach you've taken to give us the option. In the interest of maintaining good relations between TSP and the GRA, I give my approval for fighter4u to remove the image.
