Let's not fall into the trap of positioning anyone here as the morality leader of this board. I have no problem whatsoever with putting Freek at the top of the farking chain here because the guy flat out deserves it. However, comments such as "now that Freek has spoken..." seem to indicate a positioning of everyone else as being on lower levels (not relating to farking abilities).

As for humor, I, personally, pretty much take the Trey Parker and Matt Stone approach - either it is all okay or nothing is okay. If someone posts a pic of a little kid in a soccer uniform, asks this board for a personal request and I then fark that kid in the bucket (from the source pic of the little black kid holding the watermelon in the bucket), that's the humor and cleverness of farking - changing the physical natures of pics (to often create absurd situations).

If people want me to stop such "insensitive" farking, then fine...but I'll also stop putting in my free time (so givingly while asking nothing in return) on satisfying personal requests here.

Not what my intentions were at all. I was merely saying that Freek is highly respected on this board (well deserved, as you indicated). So when another person says something, it can get ignored rather easily. When Freek says it, everyone listens. I agreed with Freek and basically said the same thing I've said in previous posts when insensitivity and cruelty are peaking.

And I wasn't saying all kids aren't farkable. Given the circumstance, the pose, the facial expression, you can fark a picture of a kid and still not make fun of that kid for something he/she can't help. Your examples are legit. But not too long ago I saw a thread with MSU cheerleaders and calling them fat, and in the past Florida gator cheerleaders being ugly, and Arkansas or Bama kids with bad haircuts, and really cruel comments followed afterwards. That's what I'm referring.
