Turn off pop-ups and images in Opera like that. It truly is a great browser. That's what you get Ahlexus for using MS products.

That way, a person not wishing to view Gross content that could get them fired can still view the site without fear of reprecussions, and you still get your point across by LINKING to it, instead of POSTING it.

I clicked on that link when it was posted in another thread. Had I been at work, the gross image would have been viewable by anyone near me. There was no warning as to what it was.

While linking to gross images is definitely a step in the right direction... can we request that some sort of disclaimer be included? Like, don't click on this if your kids are near you.. or your boss?

Here is my whole perspective on this: While reading the board, if you come across a questionable link, YOU have the CHOICE as to open said link or not. If you dont want to chance it, fine. If you want to be a brave soul and click it, more power to you. At least this way, you wont be caught completely off-guard, like you would if you were reading a threading, and Snuka (Im just using you as a example, Im not singleing you out Buddy) decided to post a image of some filthy slut's rotten, decaying, festering, moldering tuna-box and you browsed past it.

If you have a question about what is considered "Questionable", just PM a moderator with the link. If there is no Mod on at that time (which is rare), Link just to be safe.
