    @DarthDimi one day you will truly shock the world, and I'll remove my bearded Sir Rog avatar in protest! :D

    @DaltonCraig007, I'm sure I shall. Next time I fart, I'll probably mess up Earth's climate for good and I shall henceforth be known as Darth Farter. :P

    We haven't forgotten the 2011 exodus, when people jumped ship only to crawl aboard another one but swiftly returned "just to say hi" and never left...

    Hi.

    I was surprised at the previous permissive attitude to begin with, as I still vividly remember (and abide) to the stricter regulations of the predecessor. A return to that is no sweat off my back, although the hot/cold tactics of copyright lawyers continue to puzzle me.

    This reminds me that I joined the old place 12 years ago. I feel old.

    Man, the reaction to this from about 2/3 of commenters has been disgusting. Wiz, you made good points - a lot, actually - but don't take it out on Dimi.

    Not at all. Dimi is just following orders and even at Nuremberg a lot of those guys just got prison sentences rather than hanged.

    It's the guys that give the orders who should be providing answers.

    Er... wow.... just wow... can't believe this discussion is still going on, it wasn't that controversial a post was it?! Really. Its reactions like these that make me want to yawn and spend my internet time on something else - I'm on here to chat Bond not read a load of angst, you know.

    Yes, folks, please get a grip on this issue. Some perspective is badly needed. It's certainly not the end of the world!

    Quite. It really is one of those "duff-duff" moments on our community. :D

    Thank you guys, for seeing it for what it is. It makes no real difference to our community. And in the grand scheme of things there are worse examples of infringement on human rights.
    I'm afraid that Amnesty International are not about to help the cause of disgruntled members here because they can't post a few piccies, so we can all move on.

    And I hope it says something about the mod team here that we haven't closed this thread, but allowed it to remain for members to vent their spleen or otherwise.

    Thanks again.

    So in the interests of this new spirit of Glasnost and free speech is there any likelihood of someone fixing the Nikki thread so it bumps?

    Glasnost?
    Nuremberg?
    Totalitarian enforcement?

    Are you absolutely sure you are on the right forum Wiz?

    As for the 'Nikki' thread, leave it with me. I'm all for Page 3 girls.

    Well, I don't understand the one aspect of having a problem with image files whether it's a link to the picture or the image in its very own display. If the mods want the pictures delivered via links, so be it.

    Why are all these complaints at all of sudden?

    I honestly wasn't paying any attention to the whole "unofficially official" diatribe....until I looked into the Nikki thing. Now I don't know what to think. Seems like more of an indictment than this image posting thing...

    Yeah ... I'm starting to wonder, I found the Van der Zyl thread and posted but it mysteriously hasn't bumped to the top of 'recent discussions'. I was asking what the controversy/fuss is about regarding her. Since that thread isn't bumping, anyone care to enlighten me?

    EON is just being a stick in the mud because their movie sucked. And they want to lash out at somebody -- even if it's the fan base that they depend on (kind of a bite the hand that feeds you thing). In any event, it's their property so they call the rules. Message received.

    Yes, I'm beginning to become suspicious. I have tremendous respect for the mods and the forum as a whole, but it seems there's more to the story than what has been told.

    There are plenty of avenues through which you can research Niki Van Der Zyl. Let's not turn this into an episode of Coronation St. Too many people on here who justify the sentiment 'a little knowledge is a dangerous thing'.

    Well hi, @Tubes. It's been a while.

    I guess Donald Trump has become a symbol of mental stability and intellectual superiority. A Mexican gave me a funny look one day so let's nuke Mexico. We're asked to be more careful about posting images so let us naturally assume that the mods, who are poor hobos with nothing better to do, are taking bribes from EON.

    People are on to us. We're sleeping with EON execs so that @Creasy47 can direct the next Bond film, based on a screenplay by @Benny and @NicNac, starring @MajorDSmythe as the evil Jason Morbees and DarthDimi as James Bond. Also, we're secretly in cahoots with Poetin so it's imperative that we silence our members with an iron fist. Comrades in edit buttons and all that.

    I'd buy a ticket.
