JB section da youngest age wise i presume.
Not sure if they're even allowed anymore.Have we gotten reasons why the Women Appreciation Threads got axed?
This was the only gripe I had with the transition.
Are MjKid and crew gonna start another one up?

quote his reply, i need something to ponder thru.
Might be this one..Word. I can't wade through the NBA thread to find that now.
We've had these rules in place for ages now:

It's nothing new. I've tried to be patient. I've tried to be understanding. If people don't understand where the line is drawn, then I have no problem deleting MORE content rather than LESS to make that distinction clearer. I get that everyone wants to be treated fairly. If you get your avatar deleted and you say "well what about so and so!?" I'll delete their avatar, too, if it's in violation.
Let me keep it here:
I'm tired of getting complaints from people who can't view our forums from work or home because they're worried that a lewd image will pop up in a thread about sneakers or sports.
I'm tired of coming across support requests from women whose pictures have been uploaded without their consent by some lonely NikeTalk member.
Saving NikeTalk from the discontinuation of the previous platform cost us more money than most of our members probably spent on college tuition. It was not cheap. It cost a lot of money to convert the data from a proprietary format to that of the new platform. It cost a lot of money to build out our hosting infrastructure and provide storage for all the images everyone's uploaded over the years - along with the redundancy and regular backups required to protect it all. It cost a lot of money to create a custom design. It cost a lot of money to custom develop features just for us. (Twitter/IG embeds, name change, pending navigation and content discovery tweaks.) It cost a lot of money to provide professional support services for our community and our fellow members.
We pay for this site with ad revenue. That's also how we fund our donations.
We moved almost a month ago, but we're STILL waiting for approval from ad networks - that should've taken under 24 hours and were no problem for other sites - over concerns about raunchy images that have NOTHING to do with our core subject matter.
This is a VERY minor concession.
You had the same avatar for 10 years? Great. I don't know many people who, as adults, would want to be associated with the poster they hung up in their locker in sixth grade, but whatever.
We need ads to maintain the site. We need ads to host your avatars.
So the choice is this: follow the rules and enjoy the types of content that brought us all here in the first place, and that bring you here day after day.
Post the type of tawdry, lascivious images you'd have no trouble finding elsewhere on the Internet and lose NT entirely.
These policies are in place for a reason. They help us make NikeTalk safer and more welcoming for a diverse audience, and they help us keep the site online.
I have little sympathy for those who have no interest in either.
If you want to argue about it, hit my inbox. It's been one of the most dramatic offseasons in league history. There are far more interesting things to occupy NBA fans' time than gripes about avatars.
No female appreciation threads is my biggest qualm with the new NT.
I searched for the black women and slim thick threads to no avail.
No IG or Twitter so I saw those bad joints here.
But if it's a legal issue I understand, although disappointed.

reddit seems to be doing fine.
