Newgrounds was forged in hentai, violence, and controversy.

Steve Irwin deserves a collection because we respect him, not because we have to appease those who don't like us.
This is very true in all points. NG was based on clubbing seals and beating up famous people. Hell, I've been here LOOONG before I had a Gold account. I just came, looked at stuff and left.
Irwin deserves a tribute collection. I mean, it's not often you see an outpouring like this on NG, good or bad. It's obvious he left a mark on a lot of people and he should be honored for it.
Even if they just make a default "Tribute Collection" for him and any other tributes that are out there or are to come.
And as far as doing it to appease people, that won't work. If a parent hates this place due to hentai, they aren't going to look for ways to like it. They're just going to see the things they hate and hate it more.
Kind of like Jack Thompson. He's an impossible bastard to please and once you give them an inch, they'll want a mile.
