    With all due respect DDD, those three in the picture would have been brave enough to post the thread where it belonged - in Cake Stop.

    Still, I think overall you did a good thing even if the approach was a bit, ahem, cowardly! :lol: The question is, now that you've changed Cake Stop to suit your tastes more, will you actually post in it? :wink:

    I realise that. It's just a bit less convenient now. Not left on the kitchen table; but available in the sh!thouse at the end of the garden.

    That was too wordy for the point I wanted to make though.

    Hey Stevo; don't go hating on the caped crusader's victory! Cake Stop is now a safe environment for our children and womenfolk to wander. The fact that provocative pictures will not only still be available to view on Bike Radar, but have now been officially sanctioned by the site owners is irrelevant!

    the real benefit of the Girls In... threads was that I could look at babes in their undies at work as somone had gone and got all the images from NSFW websites for me already. Now I have to do some work. Does mean I can get up to go to the water cooler without a cushion though.

    Oi! Don't claim all the credit. I think the slow week I had at work had something to do with it! :wink:

    I am pleased that action was taken, and that changes have been made, even though they are not the hard line ones I was advocating.

    I have also decided to post a bit more regularly on here, as I was pleased that there were a significant number of people who joined in those threads to make thoughtful, polite comments, even though my position was admittedly pretty uncompromising. I have even started a thread on here tonight asking about panniers (oh, the thrills and excitement, don't all rush at once to join in!).
    Its probably worth mentioning that no action has been taken that has affected this bit of the forum. :P

    True. It was notable that the people with some reasonable degree of intelligence who can add more to a debate than simply "your argument is wrong because I am right and I disagree with you" do seem to hang out here.

    Oh, DO shut up.

    I'd like to say that all of those who have been consistently involved with this ongoing debate - here, in CS, in the Office section - have covered yourself in glory. You should all be proud.

    This is very true.

    I hope can be recognised for the serious contribution that it is.

    DDD sees superheroes. I see sad cases in silly costumes. Or perhaps a new 'superhero' called Bandwagon Rider?

    And DDD still can't swear in-thread unless he goes into Bottom Bracket, where he'll see all those offensive pictures that he loves/hates/loves. How will he cope?

    Actually the million-now-billionaire who patrols the streets at night so that no one has to go through what he did as a child. The alien who is both the most powerful person on the planet and most altuistic. And the Princess come Goddess (depending on who is writing her) who has travelled to the land of men to teach them the errors of their ways (as "No one loves the Earth more than Diana" - Blackest Night) are amongst the most selfless characters ever conceived.
    With all due respect DDD, those three in the picture would have been brave enough to post the thread where it belonged - in Cake Stop.
    Actually the question has been posed to Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman many times, they have chosen never to invade or overthrow another country in the same way that Greg, Velo and myself had chosen not to overthrow the erroneous regime over in Cake Stop. Our hope, like Superman's mostly (because Wonder Woman is technically a warrior/war lord and Batman is "The goddamn Batman"), is to lead by example so that they can learn Truth, Justice and the Commuting section way.

    No, that's standard DDD comic fandomness.
