UT, that's a difference without a difference

The cellar isn't a public library or a school, the cellar is a unique community of users who expect certain qualities in postings. We ask for these qualities often failing to get them but that we still strive for them. I'm sure you can find snuff pics elsewhere on the net without leaving your chair. We link to crazy shit from here all the time. That is the beauty of the net, there is a place for any garbage we want to find. I just don't wish to find it here. This is a freely organized group of people we can rant, shun, avoid, or ignore at will. Even anarchists organize, they just don't use a gun to have their way.

IOTD is a long-standing draw for the cellar people expect photography and content that they can view from work with their morning cup. The picture labeled for violent content in a thread discussing such probably passes muster and is ignored. Slipped into IOTD it becomes a serious problem.

I've been wrong before and will be wrong again but that is how I see this.

You're not wrong, Griff. IOtD is part of the Cellar but different. A shitload of people see it here, and never see the Cellar. When they click on that bookmark, or their RSS feed, no amount of NSFW warnings in the post title will help, because it opens up smack in their face, often at work. At one time I tried to encourage restraint on language in the IOtD, but got throughly smacked down on that one.

We hope some IOtDers will be curious enough to click on the Cellar link, I did.

I'm not sure you did Bruce, unless it was another conversation before my time. I know I check my language and innuendo when posting in IoTD - and I'm sure others do too - given what motherfucking cunt bastards we can be the rest of the time.

IoTD is our shop window - although given that I dropped in that way perhaps you should be less careful about scaring people off

I did. Someone posted a link to an IoTD and after looking at that, I surfed my way around the site...eventually joining.

The photo in this thread is simply horrible. I could barely glance at it.
