I'm just curious as to what started the banning of babe threads?

I think they demean women."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

It happened awhile ago. There were a lot of them at first, but then the Mark and Dan decided they wanted to emphasize the "family site" image.Click here if you're having trouble sleeping.

Family? What father has time for both Civ AND Apolyton?
If there are, then those fathers are neglecting their child/ren!
On that basis alone, Apolyton should save the children's future by NOT being a family site!! Keep the fathers out!!be free

yeah it was the owners (certainly not Ming- we know he likes em').
Some of the posters at the time were pretty young. I think we had a 13 year old poster at one time.
I don't really miss em'. I wouldn't want to make the female posters uncomfortable. I don't really want an all male site.

Edit: by the way, when I'm on poly, I'm neglecting work, not my kids. If I want to neglect my kids I'll go home and do that."Stuie has the right idea" - Japher

It really was the family thing. Mark has stated over and over again that there are plenty of other places you can go for babe threads/pictures... And that they weren't appropriate here. I will say we also had a problem with "what was deemed exceptable", with many people going over the line the owners had drawn. There were strict guidelines applied, and they were violated on a regular basis. It became much easier to just say no more babe threads.Keep on Civin'
