Default Not safe for work Avatars

I've noticed lately that quite a few posters have very racy avatars involving mostly naked women. While its difficult to hate on that, it can make for a bit of an uncomfortable situation while browsing at work.

I know you can turn avatars off, but the avatar makes it far easier to identify certain posters.

Is there any sort of restrictions on avatars? if not, and none is planned, I guess I can turn them off.

thanks.

Not that I've seen.

Avatars according to the Guidelines are supposed to be PG 13. If you see some that are objectionable, please use the report post button. Mods do not see all of them so there are surely a few out there that would cause embarrassment if viewed in the office for example.

Option "B"- don't visit the site on a work computer or using the work system.


Option "C"- use a personal cell device to visit the site on your time, not the employer's time.
