Get rid of half naked women images on main pages/emails?

Posts: 18 Arc User
So I'm in class today sending off an email to a professor and I happen to see that I have an email from pwi about a zhen coupon, I open it up click the display images button and there's a scantily clad woman on my screen...not cool when I'm in a public place.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying get rid of all of the half naked tideborns..we still have them in loading screens for the game and such. But some people like to check their email or the forums when they are at school or work and it would be nice to not have to explain oh it's for a game..and then have people thinking you are a pervert or something.
Tldr: make forums and email images safe for work/school

You PROBABLY shouldn't be here regardless if you're at work/school.
Just throwing that out there.0 -
Lol what? that image? thats not a bad image thats hardly even a makes you think image
I would say denied[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
Agree with if you're at work/school maybe you shouldn't be opening game emails. Wait until later. It's not like it's majorly pressing information or anything that you need to know about right now. It will be there later when you're at home or where ever not so public.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dont go on at school then.. there is nothing wrong with a half naked women.. actually there isnt ANYTHIGN wrong with a full naked women..b:pleased
this is not a religious site or a conservative website.... its a game .. deal with it I am sure you are as old as me (19 years old) or older..0 -
Okay I just have to intervene here
The OP did not site any personal moral or religious beliefs concerning the images. So many people on the forums love to jump on people who aren't happy with something due to morals...but this is a matter of making things safe for work. So no need to spew nonsense about the OP being moralistic.
Also, I suppose all of you have NEVER done things off-topic at your workplace, or even in a public place...the issue here is that when you are out, even in a coffeeshop let's say, and someone happens to see a weird fantastical half naked image on your page it's kinda creepy.
IMO it would be nice to tone down the forum images, and email as well, since I really think people check off topic email at work/school. In game, it can be whatever. I think this is a valid suggestion to be considered.0 -
I agree, half-naked image of women need to be removed. Replace them with full frontal nudity please. Thank you.0

yes, and many of us have children, who do not want them to see the Vargas girl elf with flower pasties, or the mating mermaids (yes, you read that right...my youngest saw that, and said it looked like pictures in school books of mating dolphins and sea horses).
there are many, much prettier TB artworks on the Chinese site, but for some reason, PWI cheated us out of them, settlling for second quality, but raunchier. if anyone wants to see the pretty stuff, i can post it easily.Aia - Raging Tide wrote: »So I'm in class today sending off an email to a professor and I happen to see that I have an email from pwi about a zhen coupon, I open it up click the display images button and there's a scantily clad woman on my screen...not cool when I'm in a public place.

Question: if your children are that young why are they playing PW?
secondly.. do you own a TV? do u go outside? see any billboards? beer commercials? this kind of stuff is everywhere and is normal... we are in the 21st century not the 8th century. thanks0 -
Here we go again...
How about working while you at work? Or learning new things at school?
And frankly, most people don't give a damn what you are watching on that screen. Unless it is some really weird and kinky stuff.
Please leave animated/static images of a game characters alone.0 -
ya like someone said above me... THIS IS NOT ****.. if you think the picture of a half naked elf /veno is ****.... i suggest you watch actual **** to find out the differenceb:laugh0

O.O
That would be stuff that should not be watched at work/school. Then people would get a bit worried.
Looking at an email/forum with cartoonish images of a female character and thinking "Wow, that is some heavy and hardcore stuff" probably shows a bit of naivete and/or confusion about real women.

If they are too young to see the images, than, IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY, as their mother, to make sure they don't look at them.
This game is for players 18+ or 13+ WITH PARENTAL CONSENT. If your kids are too young, than keep them away from the game. It clearly states on the TOS, that people may get exposed to mature content.

For non-humans you have to use a age calculator.

Than blame the parents for not supervising their little ones.
Kids should not be playing this game, unless their parents agreed to let them play. I am sure PWI would be more than happy to ban any accounts of any minors that are playing without parental permission.Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures.
