Discussion: NSFW images in spoiler tags

[Fire Me Boy!]

Can we take a moment to seriously discuss posting NSFW and full nude images inside spoiler tags? I'm not talking about NSFW images in a thread clearly marked NSFW like the porn gif thread, but NSFW images popping up in threads like today's Tiffani Thiessen thread (just an example since it's fresh on my mind and is not marked NSFW).

Let's forget for a moment that posting pictures showing genitalia and nipples in general is against board policy and focus merely on the spoiler tags.

While the spoiler tags DO hide the image from view for someone walking by, they do nothing for someone whose IS folks at work peek behind the scenes. Spoiler tags only hide the image from view; the image still loads on the machine and its cache.

Am I the only person bothered by this? If I am, I'll shut up. But this is really becoming such a rampant practice, it makes me hesitant to peruse Chiefsplanet at work, even threads that should be safe to go in.

So you're telling me that I should be looking at NSFW spoilers because my tech people think I'm looking at it anyway?

Well OK Then...

I found another site out there in the world that has a NSFW tag. According to the description, it doesn't load the image until after the person clicks the link. This would also make sure that it's clear that this isn't a spoiler and is truly a way of masking the image.

Is that something that those against the spoiler route would be OK with?

(Other mods feel free to chime in on this as well, either publicly or privately.)

That looks like a viable option

Then why even say it?

I can totally understand not wanting to have pics with graphic nudity stuck in the cache of your work PC, possibly without you even knowing it.

I think we need to differentiate between things like nude pictures and pictures with the word **** in them.

That's just me.

Yes.

I work out of my house and have my home PC and my work PC hooked up to a KVM and switch back and forth.

That picture is funny. I want to see it.

I don't want to click a link to see it - I have no idea what's behind that link.

I thought by marking a link NSFW and additionally encoding it in the spoiler tags but not making it an IMG and providing just the link was fine.

People still need to post this stuff in the pics forum and not any of the others

Read the whole post. I was explaining that as far as this board's terms of service go, it doesn't matter where I'm looking at the board - at home, at work, at the library... that's why I hate the "you should work at work" argument for allowing things. Me being at work doesn't change the fact that it's against TOS.
