The only solution to this would be to make the WG forum an entirely different subforum, but that's not an option I belive.

Any way, on the mature forum: I don't want to kill the idea, but I don't see any need for it. People who want to discuss more NSFW stuff, including myself, have made such threads in General Chat before. It has mostly (if not always) been mentioned in the thread title that the content would be NSFW or 18+, and those threads have been very decent so far. I'm not sure if creating another subforum in General Chat just for NSFW stuff will be an asset to the forums. Plus, it is absurd that '****' is censored, but 'cocks' isn't.


EDIT: Also: Why is there even a text filter? The only words I know that are censored are '****' and '****' and some derogatory term for gay people I believe, which is ridiculous, since anyone can figure out how to bypass the filter. And are people really that offended by those words. (I do reliase that without a filter, certain expressions and words would be used too much on these forums, which still attract lots of young people.)

It would essentially be the same as it is now. Us older members would all just be doing the same thing, but being allowed to talk about sex, and the younger members would be stuck at the kids table. The same cliques would be there, and older members would just essentially have a lot of the rules repealed for ourselves.

I mean, as nice as it would be to talk about my pubes, or jerking off, or whatever, we still had a basic 13+ rule set, and if we decide to make a special 18+ subsection, we're kind of defeating that purpose.

Plus it's easier to avoid all sorts of crazy issues and arguments if we just leave it be. I'd much rather be able to form more of a community, while being able to have real discussions.

EDIT: And I agree with Rags, that shit annoys me too.

I changed my mind on the NSFW stuff. I agree with these two wonderful posts, and it goes with the idea of making general chat more of a general chat. Also, **** the language filter. Should be able to disable it if you want.
