Really? Not a joke? OMG! It looks like a Woody Allen film! In which volume was this story?

There was a very short story about Atom being equipped with --well, I will just say that they made him atonomically complete. :D :rolleyes:

I object to the use of the "W---- house" on this family-friendly forum. Please edit your posts to remove the term. :tenma:

Sorry, I have tried several times now to fix that post and I keep being booted back to a log in page.

Note: The afore mentioned phrase will now be referred to as "House of the overly priced hospitality specialists from Tokyo Ginza."

Did you know that this threat is also going to be a problem :shifty: the parents will still find this wrong even for the words used and the other threat Caption the comic game with the last part of Uran about to strip and Astro's nose bleading in burst. :eek: I think Jeffbert or another moderator show delete this, no offensive

It's perfectly harmless! If we start banning the freedom to have a little comical fun with Astro, not to mention that Tezuka himself was known for light comical gags in his cartoons, what's left but boring banter?

We all know there's a line which can't be stepped over nor such should be tollerated on this site but innocent gags like Adrian's hillarious shorts could be taken as they have even by a sixth grader, heck I showed these to my little niece back in Boston and she died laughing!

But you had used the word and other people too used the word S-- :eek: .
and other details can even drag a adult that has there child looking at this attention and write a threat saying " If you don't ban this topic, I'll will report this to the police and have the site shut down" not only that, The children will want to know what s-- is just by telling there parent and they will get in trouble. We don't want that to happen so I guess this is the only way to save the site, just don't post anything that goes through S--ual nature and other things that are inappropriate. Just to show this site is safe for children. :)

My work might have some implications but I made it to the minimum as it is. I think it all depends on the viewer. Anyway, we had Jeffbert active in the thread so if things turns sourly, we had a moderator to keep us in track. Sorry if I really offended you Eileen. I promise not to do that again in my pages. That is if you still allow me to draw for these forums.

BTW if you are offended by this, why did you still join the game and put up your captions?

Any bad posts can be reported to the moderators with the Report Bad Post button (Image) found at the bottom left of each post.

So far, I haven't seen any rules broken, no one has reported any posts, and I daresay the word "sex" does not constitute profanity. However, I'm not American and I hear that things are viewed differently over there.

I've changed "w---- house" to "brothel".

I share your opinion about exxageration on the reactions of using "the word", and more knowing that Tezuka made many, many mangas (MW, Tiger Books #6, Ayako, Rally up Mankind, some Phoenix chapters...) involving this issue. However, I'll do my best to avoid the use all kind of naughty and s--ual language in this site.
