People getting pissy at the thought of chick of the day being banned (not sure many people are actually advocating this) - it's not about curbing your 'freedom' to post smut. It's about not potentially discouraging new / interesting / people and content.
- may be we would have LOADS of newbies just because of the COTD thread. ;) actuallybenfal99
- I'm more offended/discouraged by the lack of originality on the POTD thread.ORAZAL
- you make a good point, albeit a different oneFax_Benson

G and ben: why do you defend the COTD so much? I bet there are enough similar threads in 4chan and reddit and tumblr for that kind of affection. And judging from your daily contributions to qbn you both have those sites open in another tab regularly.
Personally I just ignore that thread, and I am happy there is also the DudeOTD to bring some balance to the sexism it implies, at least it's reduction to looks for both sex.
go show that thread to your mothers, wives, daughters and friends and see what happens.Sometimes I think you both are some wannabe illuminati agents / provocateurs recruited to troll and disrupt any serious conversation in here.
- Some snark comment by2002
- I literally just showed COTD to my wife, she doesn't find it offensive. For the record she's over 18 though.ORAZAL
- Vanilla soft porn.ORAZAL
- COTD isn't smut, 95% is artful sexy and inspirational._niko

- women and sex have been inspiring and driving man since the dawn of time. Something primal i'd say._niko
- wordmonospaced
- fyi: those are just pictures of women and I'm not sure masturbating is that inspiring...but hey, just do your thing.uan
- thing.uan
- lol, do you have to masturbate every time you see a sexy image of a girl?_niko

We're way past the design vs. general discussion argument.
This site is basically random shitty threads with 95% of the posts in each "serious" thread being irrelevant, and people without self-control posting animated GIFs every time they're logged in.
Change is needed.

steveJobs and 2002, you guys annoys the heck out of me,
not because you actually contribute anything substancial for this forum,
but because you are part of a group of complainers,
you complain it isn't a design forum anymore (when was it ever)
you complain some thread are too hard (just don't click them and I still dont' see the threads that you said are filled up with disgusting material)
you complain constantly about other users (how about you stop projecting and start not caring, especially mr smart ass Dr Phd 2002)seriously, get a grip, I never complain about other users, because you know why, I do not care,
when I need a design post I ask my question and do away with it, when I need to vent I post a thread and actually say what I think,
do I want neckbeards like you to agree with me, nope, so to prove my point, I will waste 10 min of my life to prove you that this website was never fully about design but a free exchange of ideas from people of this field
- Thanks for your contribution.2002
- maybe I should contribute like you and call everyone slur names?GeorgesII
- "just don't click them"
LOL, good one.Jaline - Slur names? Like nigger? Sorry I don't say stuff like that.2002
- I wish that Satanic Designers thread was still around. I'd love to read that 12+ years later.mg33
- i actually enjoyed a lot of those threads. where's the zoolander one?SteveJobs
- my point is that for those who have been here more than a decade and are honest, know that these website fluctuated, but now, we need new blood,GeorgesII
- but now, we need new blood, because how many time can we talk about design with the same people, it's like a deaf echochamberGeorgesII

This thread needs moderators

- Oh you don't need to complement me mate. I know you are still a child.2002
- I must be just getting deep in your skin. You made me smile. So much effort. Lol.2002

GeorgesII, i'm not asking for more design-related threads - unless that's what we the community and site owners want.
i'm asking for an environment more conducive to welcoming new people
i'm asking for less porn, nsfw, etc threads that don't scare people away but probably have them thinking twice before visiting at work
some people put their professional reputations on the line by joining such a public community and i'm sure many of those voices would be welcomed here. i wonder how many lurkers and would-be posters here represent the design community and professional design world or even other creative and non-creative industries..
- Yeap2002
- About the lurkers: So you mean serious people come to look at nsfw content but are too afraid to post?ORAZAL
- If the "professional design world" is coming to look at the content on this site then why change it?ORAZAL
- You have stats?2002
- ORAZAL, I can't account for every scenario's likelihood, just supposing who we may be alienating through reasoning.SteveJobs
- what do you think most of us do?
I've been doxed by some of the same users who pretend to be impartiak, scarabin have been doxxed before too, it's been a long time since I stopped caring about filtering what I see and say, what's the point when any anon punk, can fill your work mail with 1000's of spam..GeorgesII - doxxed before too, it's been a long time since I stopped caring about filtering what I see and say, what's the point when any anon punk, can fill your work mail with 1000's of spam..GeorgesII
- anon punk, can fill your work mail with 1000's of spam.. or send threads to your boss? some of you view yourself too highly when in fact they are just whiny self entitled little anonymous punksGeorgesII

I'd get involved.
- No one asked but sure2002
- Yes they did.monospaced
- No they didn't2002
- Monospaced, wanna get involved?moldero
- Ahhhh lol2002
- Perhaps I misread, but isn't this thread simply QBN asking for moderators?monospaced
- I'd say that is an ask.monospaced
- didnt you see the exception list? You are on it.2002
- that was made by set, not QBN, and has no bearing whatsoever on what we're discussingmonospaced
- The ask went out, and I'd be happy to get involved. That's it.monospaced

The resistance is impressive. Like the band going down with the titanic, but instead of musicians in evening wear, a handful of thirty-something men determinedly gurning at tit-gifs.
- I'll subscribe to your newsletterSteveJobs
- lol well put2002
- The tits will keep us afloatORAZAL
- lol, they just might.Fax_Benson
- hahaJaline

And per normal, the thread degrades into internet pissing match where grown people act like grade school children. Not a QBN issue, but an Interweb and general anthropological issue.
