Agreed. It's very offensive to some of us. Please post some warning for us in advance.

I think it's perfectly valid to request that you give fair warning before posting full-frontal nudity on this forum.

Some of us browse the net at work on our downtimes-- others simply prefer to keep things clean. Don't see anything wrong with that.

I actually have to agree, if you're going to show some tits please be considerate and show a dick while you're at it for our homosexual friends. As a bisexual I am disgusted at the lack of penis on this thread. It just goes to show how equal opportunity is non-existent in this modern day and age no matter how many people lie to themselves and say that it is.

Sincerely,

NeptuneKai

Back on topic, I wonder, what are the odds that they actually got the DragonBox masters for this release? :?:

Is it very offensive to you? Maybe not. But is it to some of us? Yes. Some of us are very Christians and therefore do not want to see nudity at all. The others have some other reasons as well. Just post some warning in advance. Is that hard for you?

Considering this is the internet is a relatively good source for freedom of expression nowadays I don't feel like anyone should feel obligated to censor themselves just because of a few hyper sensitive people.

My personal preferences have no bearing on the argument at hand.

Bottom line: I find animated nudity disgusting, and even repulsive. Dragonball is generally accepted as a show aimed at ages 8 and up. Being subjected to numerous screen caps and scans of full-frontal nudity without warning is not what one should expect when signing up at a forum such as this.

When I'm scrolling through a thread titled "Dragonball: Season 1 discussion" I SHOULD not have to worry about hovering my mouse over the X button.

Link your pornography externally.

Yes there is nothing more disgusting then the human body in any form. I fully agree with you my brother.

One pair of breasts isn't pornography. I can understand being offended, but really - if you find that sort of thing offensive, why are you watching dragonball? At least in the part that isn't SUPERHARDCORE ZEEEEE, those are tossed around as gags.

My apologies if I come off as harsh, but I just don't want this thread to end up like season 9 did.
[quote="Brakus"]For all the flack that FUNimation gets on this forum for their quote about DBZ, there's some modicum of truth to it: a 9-year-old is born every day. Or in some cases, "reborn". DBZ may be a kids' show, but it's been so close to so many hearts all over Japan, America, and quite possibly, even the world.[/quote]

It's a scene from the goddamn show.
And a page from the freaking manga.

Are you saying Dragon Ball is pornography? And that's completely ignoring your complaints are about how "you" find it disgusting and how repulsed "you" are. Nobody cares about you. While it's obviously not anywhere a focal point, the Dragon Ball series has nudity in it. Deal with it, or go find a Hamtaro forum, 'sall I can say.

Stop pushing your ideals on people.

There's no reason to be inconsiderate of others' feelings by criticizing their moral and religious beliefs like this. A healthy and proper resolution would be to link to the pictures rather than post them as so.

God this post is delicious. All of my childish sarcasm aside this is an excellent point which I stand behind 100%. Thank you for phrasing that so well B.

Seriously! I mean it! Just because the internet has freedom doesn't mean you can abuse it. Some of us don't want to view XXX. Respect us our wish. If you feel aroused viewing nudity, that's fine but don't do it for your own sake. At least be considerate toward others. What if some 10 year old saw this? Super-mama would be extremely mad and start flooding the thread with angry posts from her... And yes, I admit it. I am hyper sensitive person. You are not so just be considerate toward others.

How childish of you to say "nobody cares about you."

I thought this user-base prided itself on maturity. Apparently your mentality is still stuck in the grade school level. :roll:

I'm not asking people to change their posting patterns. I'm simply asking for a WARNING, be it within the post in bold point, or better yet, within the topic title.

EDIT:

Oh, and for the record, you just broke rule 5 of the forum rules; rules which you agreed to when you created your account here.

"RULE # 5: ATTITUDE & EMPHASIS
Be respectful of your peers. There are people of many different nationalities, ethnicities, sexualities, etc. If someone's factually incorrect, don't be afraid to correct them... but be nice about it. In turn, don't be a jerk if someone corrects you on something. Believe it or not, you don't know everything there is to know! Your opinions must be expressed with civility."

Telling me that my opinion is worthless and that nobody cares is not what I would call "civil." Hopefully you will abide by forum rules in the future.

As B said it's not arousing it's scans from the manga and screencaps from the show. It's part of Dragonball, it would make no more sense to stop discussion on these matters then to stop discussion on the fighting because someone was too sensitive and didn't like to hear about it. If you don't like to see this part of Dragonball get an image blocker and stop trying to force us to censor ourselves just for your sake.

So...you are asking people to change their posting patterns then.

It's so sad that you don't care about our feeling. You wont get girlfriend with that stink attitude of yours. Yes, this forum is foir Dragonball discussions; however, it doesn't mean you can do whatever you want. As SmoothCriminal and I have pointed out, it is extremely offensive to some of us and your attitude is terrible. If you dont like our wish, start the new thread with some nudity pictures with title "NUDITY".
