Well, that's changed everything. I can imagine what it is like having to go through 70,000 thumbnails - well, may be I can't, but that sure doesn't sound like a lot of fun. Hopefully, not a lot of other members allow themselves to get disheartened by similar incidents. My apology if I said anything which can be taken as overreacting.
Thanks to xenolith for bringing Jessica Barbosa to my attention. Is she related to Gracyenne Barbosa? Here is a picture I found of her at 14 year old, already a truly promising athlete.
Sthenolagnia: I can't be exactly sure who deleted that picture, but here's my theory as to what might have happened to it:
About a month ago the company I rely on for ads, which has a policy against "adult content", decided that to stop serving ads to the site. I asked them why and they specifically cited "see-through tops" as one of the main reasons. They said all pictures with see-through tops in them (and, as such, visible nipples), must go.
So, since I rely on revenue from ads to pay the site's hosting costs, I decided to check all the pictures on the site for "see-through" tops, and delete all such pictures. This involved checking about 70,000 pictures. I didn't look very closely at every picture because then it would have taken way too long; for most pictures, I only looked at the thumbnail (and even so, the process took several hours a day for about a week). Your picture, I'm guessing, was a mistake I made, as at first glance her top seems to be see-through.
On the good side, my efforts got the ads back. On the bad side, I probably deleted this picture and lots of others that shouldn't have been deleted. That's unfortunate, but I couldn't come up with a better plan than what I ended up doing. Sorry about that.
The picture is nice; feel free to upload it again if you want.
The arbitrary manner with which some of the mods of the main site treat pics has made me stop posting there altogether. I truly don't want to say anything against the site, since Chainer obviously has labored hard to maintain it for us. I also understand that mods are not getting paid, and their task sometime can be rather burdensome. But to make mistakes is one thing; to be overly prejudiced is another.
For example, this photo that I posted, of Chinese FBB "于桂敏", was favorited by many and its average point is always above 8.5 It does not violate any rule of the main site. Yet, it was deleted after being there for several months.
Granted, somebody could argue that the model's face is ugly, but mods shouldn't take the liberty to impose their aesthetic standards on the rest of us. I don't think that the face look masculine at all; I mean, the frame, the mouth and the eyes are all those of a woman. There is no other reason that can be deduced from this situation other than that someone just doesn't like it and want to get rid of it.
I try not to let things like that bother me and ruin my attachment to the community of like-minded fellas, so I simply choose to post to the forum alone. That doesn't sound like a very good solution, but hey, all of us have to yield a little to our ego every once in a while.
These great pictures of Nursel Gurler and Jessica Barbosa were rejected by the staff vote. In fact I've posted other similar muscular women and have never had a single upload be approved through the staff vote.
I can see where maybe Jessica's upper body is not very developed, but Nursel has amazing development everywhere. Also, Jessica and Nursel have (IMO) worse quality pics already on this site.
Hi all - I got a "critical attack prevented" warning from my antivirus software while viewing GWM a view minutes ago. No harm done, but just letting you know. Larry
It was a warm saturday afternoon and I took a ride to the mall. As I was walking through the food court I noticed a young girl about 18 years old sitting at a table with a boy about the same age. She was maybe 5'3" 140 lbs very solid looking. She had on a tank top which revealed very thick shoulders. Her arms were to die for; very muscular. She had on short shorts which showed off her thick but defined legs. Her tan was perfect. The boy was about 6' tall and very slim, maybe 110 lbs. They were talking and she was playing with her hair and with every move her biceps jumped up and down like she was flexing them to get the boy to notice them. I was a little hungry so I grabbed something to eat and sat nearby. All of a sudden the boy makes a flexing motion to the girl who proceeded to do a double bicep flex which nearly knocked me from my chair. She was twisting her wrists and make the bicep go up and down. He then reached accross the table and squeezed her arm. His hand looked tiny as it was on her very pronounced bicep. He was squeezing her bicep and turning red, and she was giggling. She then grabbed his arm in the bicep area and laughed. He rolled up his sleeve and flexed a virtually non existent bicep which she squeezed, and he said ouch that really hurt. She was laughing out loud at his puny arm and flexed her right arm and put his hand on it and said feel this, this is what a real muscle feels like. He blushed and then from nowhere put his arm on the table in an armwrestling postion. She grabbed his hand and in a few seconds just pushed his arm down. At this point I knew I had to say something. I got up to put my tray on top of the garbage recepticle and said to him wow, she looks strong. He said that she's a freak of nature. So I turned to her and said he called you a freak. She said back to me I am a freak and did a right arm flex which showed a huge bicep maybe 13". She then put her left arm in the armwrestling position and said to the boy lets show him. The boy grabbed her hand and again she pushed her down effortlessly in maybe 2 seconds. She then proceeded to flex the left bicep and kiss it and say these guns are unbeatable. At this point I noticed another boy who was also skinny walking over and saying hello to them. She said to me to ask him how strong she is and he just rolled his eyes and said freaky strong. She then challenged him to an armwrestle to which he declined so she stood up and lifted the boy over her shoulders like he was a ragdoll and said she had somewhere to go. As she was walking with the boy over her shoulder you could see her massive hamstrings and calves bulging out, about to burst through her skin. After a few feet she put him down and the two guys walked off with her.
When doing that 'yes/no' thing, the principles I've tried to apply are ...
1) Obviously, to abide by Chainer's rules ... sometimes, when I've been impatient, I've clicked 'yes' on a pic before it's fully scrolled-down as part of the loading process, and noticed too late that it's watermarked. So apologies for that ...
2) Bearing the above in mind, I've tried to keep my own preferences out of it, and not judge an individual pic simply on the basis of whether I personally like it or not. (I've okayed some pics which feature HORRIBLE implants, for example.)
3) The main grounds on which I'd reject a pic are: (a) if it's a routine glamour/cheesecake/T&A pretty-girl pic without a significant degree of visible muscle, (b) if it shows a heavy-duty bodybuilder with an obvious manifestation of Guy Face, (c) if it's the wrong side of the line between 'teen' and 'KID' or (d) if the woman in question is, despite clearly being a bodybuilder, so heavily-clad that the muscle is only implied.
Be interested to know what criteria others apply when 'guest modding' ... or whether your decisions are purely subjective.
I requested this a few months back -- Chainer threw the question open to the group -- the general consensus was that 'bliques were covered by the 'abs' tag.
I tried to search to see if anyone had raised this before, but I'm apparently not allowed to search the forums - which is a first for me in any forums. :-(
Anyhoo - could one of the people in power here possible add "obliques" as a tag. They're one of my favourite body parts! :-)

Should I just stop going through staff vote?

Why don't we just reply to the one that's here first?
To anon: a very healthy list.

Oh well - some you lose and most you lose. :-(
Thanks for the info, Chevron.
Looks like it's just you and me, pal.
Anyhoo - could one of the people in power here possible add "obliques" as a tag. They're one of my favourite body parts! :-)
Thankoo.
