Why are violent games like Dreamweb, Mortal Kombat or Bloodfest not affected by the adult filter in the games database? Why does Lemon Amiga endorse violence but not harmless pixel nudity?

Adult filter was not present here until one prudish visitor here felt offended by screenshots from adult games. I remember it well, Kim then deicided to develop that filter. Nobody felt offended since. And if you have a problem with it, I think it is now unrelated, because there is nobody to do anything with it anymore.

I agree! A bit of nipple never hurt anyone!

I fail to see how the website 'endorses' violence. If thats your only concern in this world then you really have nothing to compain or worry about.

Oh, yeah, and this:

Last I checked, neither were really for the kiddies. And both are pretty "harmless" (also not a word that I'd have chosen), although nudity is by far more offensive to more people.

I have 6 and 10 year old boys. I'd much rather they see nudity. Nudity is the natural state of the human body. Of course it has to be in good taste. I wouldn't want them watching an explicit porno. I see nothing natural about 3 guys pounding their things and squirting their juices all over one girl.
On the other hand i see nothing natural about shooting a someone 200 times with a machine gun. Machine guns aren't natural.
