    Yeah, sort of. What annoys me (in addition to that) is that I got an r-rating based solely on what I'm interested in seeing... it's not based on what I'm posting, which locks them out of seeing anything I am posting. Just because I like to look at erotic content doesn't necessarily mean I'm going to be posting it on my blog (I might, but that isn't the point). Looking at others' content is way different from posting content, and why should my blog be r-rated if I'm NOT posting r-rated material?

    Geoff says it's this way temporarily, not permanently, until they get some sort of legal disclaimer thing written up. There's a thread about this in Features, if I recall correctly which forum I saw that in and responded to.

    Didn't even notice it. I tried to log off, and although the SU toolbar indicates so, I seem to remind logged on. But yes, if an R-rating is enough to hide people's blog, it would annoy me.

      i think the overall attempt to make the stumbleverse idiot friendly is nauseating...deleted threads, nuked forums, hiding x-r profiles...i appreciate the lack of advertising but i think that the <i>caveat</i> should be on the viewers side. but unfortunatly we cater to the lcd (lowest common demoninator) and so we protect those encapable of differentiation, discrimination, and generally those being easily offended. as a sponser you can complain...you are a "paying customer" and if enought people complain then action takes place...unless the market forces arrayed against you are greater than your value. and then well there is always defection...but to what...there isn't an alternative to su, and hence they can play the game this way.
