that's not even good fodder.
that board is not this board.
this isn't even an argument, it's a debate on board rules.
on that board, there is a rule that excludes members children from ridicule, especially 2 year olds. here, there is not.

here, you have the baker rule.
there, we do not.

how is the making fun of members baby pictures any more or less egregious than posting a regualr members picture or photoshopping it?

I will tell you what the difference is between the baker rule and what happened over there.

the reason the baker rule was put into place was for people who want their anonimity and dont make their shit public. So if it wasnt a public image, like say posted here or on their myspace, etc etc. Then it is off limits, like if it was a pic that was sent in confidence over aim, etc. The person has the right to request it be removed. At the same time, no one can stop anyone from mocking it, so the rule is not to protect someone from being verbally mocked.

From what I understand, the freak kid in question, his moms posted the picture on the board. Therein lies the difference. Once she decided to make it everyones business, it was everyones business and if she wanted everyone to coddle her and lie, then thats her own delusion. Was it done out of spite? maybe. was it done cause maybe the kid really is an attrocity? maybe. But in the end, everyone had the right to say what they wanted because she made it everyones business by posting the picture in the 1st place.
