I really don't understand how expressing my opinion in pictures is any different than some 12 year old from Indonesia expressing his in broken English. As the famous Napoleon Bonaparte once said "Un bon croquis vaut mieux qu'un long discours" or "A good sketch is better than a long speech". Just because I am unable to eloquate and express my opinion in such a way that is verbose does not mean that my opinion doesn't count. I'd like to think that I'm an intelligent individual and my opinion around here is at least mildly respected or acknowledged.

But on the contrary I've noticed a rising trend of indifference and some would say biased bigotry on the part of the moderating crew. Just because we don't all express our opinion in the same manner doesn't mean mine is subpar or inferior. It's really upsetting to me to see that this is going on. I don't mean to exaggerate or exacerbate the situation in a hyperbolic manner, but the Internet is supposed to be a bastion of free speech and free from censorship. I'm not posting pornography, I'm summing up my views in a way that's probably more legible than some people on here. I feel like this place is slowly turning into a shade of Nazi Germany rather than what was intended.

Anyways, just my .02

Don't like how we do things? Go away. In keeping with your Nazi Germany analogy, this isn't a ghetto, you aren't forced to stay here. Maybe drop us a line sometime.

I'm trying to be progressive and change things from the inside out. Not all bad things stay bad forever. Germany is great now... maybe with some counseling for Hitler, Nazi Germany would not have ended up the way it did.

Yes, pictures can speak a 1000 words. But it's not very helpful when someone is asking a question about the ACR and they get 3 pictures of beagles looking sad.

Once in a while, yeah why not, but some threads have an image at least every other post. We have a no one/few-word-replies rule to discourage off topic spam, is a single "epic fail" image the same as a one word reply?

The pictures are just as bad and as annoying IMO.

Completely ignoring the irony of the "discussing the usage of pictures" thread turning into a thread of... pictures, many threads do descend into a "who can post the funniest image" contest.
