  somewhat like they do when someone first starts posting in the forums.

  WGT started  doing that to every single POST  i submit ,  Just because  my keyboard  broke a few weeks ago and had to type in ALL CAPS! UNBELIVABLE  they worry more about  CAPS & lower case  letters then they will about  peoples pics! ROFLMAO

  WAY TO GO WGT!

  FWIW, I haven't seen anything here I couldn't see on regular TV. Taste has nothing to do with it-you'll always get clowns pushing the envelope in that area. 

  Or Youtube for that matter....

  Ah Come on Jim, You know Mio is right. They could atleast put in a system of moderating profile pictures before allowing them to be used, somewhat like they do when someone first starts posting in the forums. Also could be a simple filter system put in place for posting and chatting. 

  It's just common knowledge that these practices have to be put in place when dealing with minors as to not bring up liability issues from parents.

  The  1 Week Wonder strikes again!

  This is essentially gambling and is illegal. So in turn WGT is promoting under-age gambling.

  Not to mention ads that could be seen as promoting the underage use of e-ciggs, and Ketel-one Vodka. icon, what in the world are your bosses thinking?

  WGT may need to change their advertising strategy, or they may see a lawsuit looming. Those could be some very big charges filed against WGT. I hope for the best.

  Spin the may and could anyway you want. It is simple advertising for WGT. Ketel One is an official sponsor of the PGA for crying out loud. The gaming that goes on at this site can in no way be construed as promoting underage illegal gambling.
