Thumbs down Cheater Digit

I used to be devote reader of digit.Untill now. I will say somethings which may annoy some. The coverstory for a recent issue ws SEX and its impact on children. Agent 001(0) blahed about netnannies . But the wallpaper of anniversory issues contained pornographic wallpapers.maybe digit is bringing porn right into the desktop.

Another thing is that digit doesn't keep its proises. For 4rt annuversary issue the advertisement in week showed H&D2 and Midtown Madness @. but i got H&D and midtown madness only. Once they Promised duallayer DVD & the didn't give it.

THE article are not enjoyable as they used to be since all good witers have left digit.

i want a reply and iwill keep on posting bads about the mag.

DIGIT SUCKs

@ruthless:
You need to
1. Learn what pornography really is
2. and then see if those wallpapers match that definition

We always check the wallpapers before we put them on the CD/DVD.

As for the fourth anniversary, it was before I joined, so I can't comment. Ditto the alleged no dual-layer DVD.

It's not pornography, but some of the wallpapers I've seen on the digit CD/DVD have definitely been on the skimpy side -- probably easily confused as pornography by someone who doesn't know the exact meaning.

No one bothers about the meaning of "pornography" it's just that it doesn't suit a technology magazine to provide such wallpapers.

Maybe we should post some actual pornography links so that Ruthless can understand what pornography is.

ref. good articles: Listen ****brain. I'm totally tired of people not acknowledging the superb articles Digit has been writing over the last few months, esp. the last one. Fatbeing, I hope you wont let these [edit: tch tch..language] change your mind about this, and start putting frivolous articles instead.

Agar available to sab kuch hai ye bhi aur wo bhi* per jo chij jaha milni chahiye wahi mile to thik . SEXY gals poster looks fine in Adult magazines but main point is Is this OK to hav such matter in Tech magazines? Yaar siblings bhi share karte hai !

My dear misunderstood friend, perhaps you need to explore and comprehend the subtleties of a conversation better.

If you've not read the forum rules, read them.

So, is the idea of acquainting someone with porn, by posting forbidden content, your idea of making a point? You gotta be kidding me!

@Apollo: perhaps you need to explore and comprehend the subtleties of sarcasm better.

P.S. - I'm guessing Wikipedia will not be illegal, and there are many wikipedia articles which border on pornography. That's why I meentioned it.

I hope you're not angry or anything. I was not belittling you. Sorry, and peace.

No problem. In any case, my initial comment was not directed at you. So, it's all good. [/handshake]

And for the record, no... I am not interested in any wikipedia link bordering on pornography. Thank you.

I don't suppose digit has started some bandwagon to provide pictures of ladies in their DVD's. BTW I find it hard to understand that a person who buys digit magazine has NO ACCESS to the internet at all ?

and as I see it ... And if u think of it the way that if they just remove a few wallpapers like those I don't think ANYONE would stop buying digit will they ? Now if they don't remove any wallpapers then most probably "ruthless" the user won't buy it. I'm just taking ONE user into consideration here there may be so many more people like him in this country who don't appreciate such content from a tech magazine. So I suppose if digit wants to sell a few more copies then they should remove those wallies.

Digit has to identify their target audience. If they want to keep receiving mails from 14 year olds that they love the magazine and the content on the CD/DVD, then they should rethink their choice of wallpapers.
