So, apparently, from today again, anyone with a Facebook account can have a good old search to find content of wretches having their head's chopped off(laughably, providing such content doesn't "glorify" thisConfused), but tits are off the menu on sites such as this.

Bloody strange old world, if you ask me.

It's simple, really.  Nudity can set off content filters which will make the ads less likely to be seen.  Google doesn't like that.  It has nothing to do with the intent or artistic nature of the covers.  In all honesty, though, I think many (not all) of the effected covers are lacking in class.  That's just my opinion.

^Hi Seyo.
Trust me when I say that nobody here wants this change. We're doing the best that we can, but unless we can find a way of bypassing the Google route, then we're forced to do this. Or else we'll lose the site.
We all hate this, and the fact that some arbitrary search machine out there in the internet has control over what is acceptable and not, and furthermore has no way of sniffing out the art from the porn - that in itself is ridiculous and downright wrong. 
“The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.”

- Douglas Adams

This is absolutely ridiculous! I could imagine to see many oddities in a forum and site dedicated to the progressive rock, but that I would one day face such a blatant censorship I could never dream of. Angry

And it is not only an ugly practice, reminiscent of some past Stalinist or Inquisitionist times, it is a rude negation of the artistic freedom and artists' creativity. Dead

Welcome to the new internet totalitarianism.

If this practice should continue, I definitely will not want to stay a member of this site. And I wrote 600+ album reviews... Cry

Please, find a solution to remove this barbarity!

There was this Saudi prince in the 80s who bought a magnificent pink stone mansion in Beverley Hills that had a visible and elevated garden that contained dozens of Greek statues. He had hair glued to the vital areas including....are you ready.....armpits!  The level of laughter caused by passing motorists was such that some thought there were unending earthquakes LOL   It was the talk of LA for a very long time.......Maybe he bought Google Adsense, ........just wondering.....
