Like I have said in previous posts, EF is a public place and this kind of material should not belong in public places. Put a door with a warning on it and all will be well, as it will be up to the user to open it or not.

You say that your 3 year old daughter is fine with it, but say when it is time for her to start grade school and you visit 2 potential schools for her to attend. In one, you find posters of dogs, horses, and other natural or imaginary animals with their penises centered posted all over the place; the other school does not. Which school do you send your daughter to?

This is an exaggeration of course but I hope you see my point: just because something is natural doesn't mean it should be commonplace. When a dog poops, we clean up after it after all, so others don't step in it.
sorry for stepping in like this but i just have one question:

whats worse? that people look at them, or that people shoot and kill them?

imo if you dont want your kids to see the boorum they shouldnt experience this "game" at all. i would say its far more worse to run around killing stuff (with a penis or not) rather than seeing something that can be considered sexual.

its virtual, so i dont mind the killing. its not real. and its important to have a clear view of whats real or not. i wouldnt run around all day killing animals, mutants or people irl, and believe me i would freak if i saw a boorum like this in my basement.

this is what it is. either you like it or you dont.
if you dont like it you can complain, hope for a change and accept whatever the outcome is, or just simply stay away.

IMO EU is not a game for minors. This is pure entertainment for the mature population. If people are afraid of showing a creature of pure fiction to their children then try to prevent them. If our children are able to find EF, I'm afraid there is a slight possibility that they are able to find websites with worse content than this one..

First off, I'm no prude but I also dont want to see a big grey penis displayed on the homepage.
I visit Ef when I cant log onto Pe which is normally for a few minutes a day when I'm at work. We all received emails regarding viewing sexual context at work, I dont have a problem with visiting Ef at work in the past, but what would happen now if my supperiors do decide to check my internet history.
They'l get a picture of a HUGE GREY PRICK, I thank u for that!!!!!!!

Do they know this is a game? No, will they see the funny side, NO, they'll see a huge grey cock

Again, thank u for that

the boorum is a part of the universe that MA created. if you dont like the boorum you should file a supportcase and tell them you dont like it. i would be very disappointed if this forum started to censor unedited ingame material.
