Steve Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Alright peeps, well, "more mature" peeps, we are going to use this topic to make suggestions about how to make this subforum worth a shot. I got the idea of making a global topic for everyone to suggest things since User was throwing up a lot of ideas, most of them being good, and since this place is mostly "dead", I'm not sure if the idea of having a "mature" subforum is really necessary, at least, if it's going to end up being like this, deserted.While we are open for any kind of suggestions and we will happily clarify why we can or can't allow something, do remember that this will never be a place for "porn" "yiff" or crazy stuff.

"User" Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 RIP User's hopes and dreamsOnly that was never what I wanted and I agree with Steve completely. I have never wanted this site to get into anything like that. That being said, the mature forum here is more pg-13 than it is R. I wouldn't mind an R-rated art topic for artistic nudity but nothing hardcore period. I'll add to this later as I'm with some friends right now at a party.

Sabre Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Iirc, the mature section was made to serve the function the counter point does now. The art thing is such a grey area. Let's not mince words. The sites staff is American, and Americans are prudes, and most 'Artistic Nudes' that are Starfox related is porn. "It's tit's masqurading as breasts" I believe is the phrase.While it is nice to have for the odd thread, it is not worth it. There is very little adult content that people would want to discuss. Even less that wouldn't break the no porn rule.In case I'm not being clear, let's break down the point of this sub forum.-To house religious and political topics.Already done by the pub.-For Dermots rule breaking art postsHe's not here anymore, and even if he was most of that stuff would be considered porn anyway.-For 'adult' discussionThat is pretty much 99% drugs, sex, ect. Of which no one really cares about or wants to talk about.If you wanted you could open it as an adult RP section, but again I doubt anyone would bother, and the objectional parts (the sex) generally kill an RP anyway. Plus I dount there would be any interest.It's worth mentioning the Krystal Art mailing list you might remember from a while back. When Krystal art was constantly being pulled for seemingly no reason we started a PM list that was basicly everyone sends me links to Krystal images, and I would send out a list to the interested members when I got about a dozen or so. There was no porn outside of weird fetishes like fat or belly button, and all (imo) met the rules but were pulled or were on the line.The point is, unless Dermot and/or all the old Krystal fans come back I see no point in keeping it around.

"User" Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I'm in agreement with Sabre - except for the Americans are prudes part. There isn't much point in having this section up anymore, other parts of the board now serve it's purpose. Furthermore, we don't have THAT many people with access to this section and anything 18+ is unlikely or unwilling to be talked about anyways. I mean, if people want their share of yiff or what not they can always go to other sites for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 So basically, the only reason I have heard about staying with this subforum is having a R art section which no one wants sooo, I guess we might end up closing this place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I dount there would be any interest.Plus, public adult RP usually causes problems for other reasons, namely that it is public.Say for instance there are 2 separate standard RPs. In each one, a different male character crushes on a single female character, or vice versa. One of them beats the other to the punch in coming here. Jealousy and ULTIMATE NEeERD RAAAAGE ensues, and it's more more thing to the drama pile. Plus, it still counts as porn, I'd argue.The only reason I'd stay around is stealth trolling moar fanboys anyway, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
