What if they post pot threads in another language? The host surely wouldn't bother to translate them then ~

Make it like a special language that only that user-group can read, like Force Pitter has "The Pitt Language", which looks like garbled mess to everyone but FP's. Non-FP's can't post in it, either.

Henceforth, all discussions about the alleged existence of Santa Clause will be banned. We wouldn't want to ruin it for the young ones!

You can ***** all you want dude, but it's obviously not a rule created by the administration team at ESF but by the guy who owns the space where this forum sits. Unless you're willing to front the hosting costs, I'd suggest you at least try and be mature about it.

No, I'm not being some immature little kid. I'm being dead serious, close and delete this thread. I forgot who, I want to say skizzer but I could be wrong, but he said he didn't want any discussion about it because where the server is located (germany I believe), marijuana is illegal there, therefore, any discussion should be closed and deleted so no problems arise (i.e. ESF gets shut down). It isn't a matter of whether the host likes the topic of marijuana or not, he's just looking out for the safety. Everything I said, up until the last line, was being serious. The last line was to indicate how dumb it is though, in my opinion.

If this thread doesn't get closed or deleted, that's playing favorites, which is bull****, because why can this thread speak of marijuana, but the thread I / others created can't?

But then again, he is the host so hell, he can make porn available on here and there's nothing we can do / say about it, which shows a faulty administration. which is super lame :|

It's not illegal to talk about marijuana, however, it's illegal to distribute and talk about where you can get it, none of which was going on, which makes this whole thing ridiculous.

however, if you can prove how discussing a legal law passed in the state of california can get you in trouble in Germany, I'll gladly shove my foot right in my mouth. If not, the rules to the forum aren't by logical justification, but by "BECAUSE I SAID SO."

and I always hated that answer.

But seriously, close this thread or open all the other threads.

So you would like no discussion on the matter at hand? I don't think so. This thread is not about the substance you are complaining about, it is about the nature of our TOS and AUP. Those things were being covered constructively until you decided to extend logical arguments to rediculous ones.

As an update, we have discussed the pros and cons of setting up and running an 18+ area. There have only been three admins in the conversation, so we have yet to hear from others, but it appears that we will try it on a trial basis once we come up with rules for posting and joining the adult club.

Drug conversations would still be banned there right?

What WOULD we be allowed to discuss that can't be discussed in the general off-topic section?

What pro's? This will just be another club within the forum populace. Currently offtopic is rather lenient, we've discussed a lot of different things and I never really felt limited by age. Sure maybe once or twice, but that doesn't warrent a new section. What would we want to discuss there anyway? Share the experience of driving a car, talk about sexual positions, discuss the toothfairy? I honestly can't phantom why we'd need this section, especially after I learned that the herb discussed in this thread isn't banned due too an age thing.

Yeah, I *****ed out Skyrider in PM, he was way out of line in closing my thread. I should probably read his reply.
With my PM reply:
You Cant expect me to check all the threads, there is no need for you to react like that to me. I merely saw your thread in the recent created / posted list.
I merely took action as I saw your post in the recent created threads/replies in the chatbox and haven't checked all your posts. I replied to your PM a bit horrible in text as I used my mobile to reply. And "out of line"? I merely follow the rules regarding drug related threads. I could also say that you were way out of line for Private Messaging to me like that. You could have spoken to me in a better manner.

Clearly a sexual forum RPG is in the making.

It's like the Fight Club section. But steamier.

Brosiris are you claiming that "*****ing" out is a good thing?

That's basically the stance I've adopted on this "18+ section" idea. The topic(s) that some of you would be looking to discuss would still be barred, even if an age restriction was imposed. The section, in my opinion, would be entirely extraneous.

That's generally the position of the forum staff, but it has been asked for and we don't want to take thnigs away from the people that they feel they deserve. So we are quite willing to do this on a trial basis to prove that its not going to be what people think its going to be. Currently, we are trying to nail down what the TOS forbids regardless of age (most services will not allow porn on them, and we know we can't talk of drugs) and AUP changes that can apply to that section only.

I'm pretty sure if a thread discussing a book about how to be a pedophile is allowed, then an 18+ section isn't necessary. I would imagine pretty much anything that would be discussed there has already been discussed in the Off-Topic section, so I'm no sure why you guys are making the senior staff go through the trouble over something that could be done right now in here. The leniency would be the same, because let's face it, someone hasn't been warned for going overboard with a comment or anything in a while. The same thing could be said about a thread being closed (excluding this drug issue).

The only thing that I still think should be discussed with the senior staff is allowing drug discussions. I don't know why skizer (assuming he's the host) isn't allowing drug discussion, because as alex said, there's nothing illegal about talking about them. If you talked about them in real life in front of let's say a cop, there may be silly suspicions of you having drugs on you, but they won't arrest you, so again, I'm not seeing where the problem is here. I understand that you guys have said that it's the host's decision, but that doesn't change the fact that it's silly as hell to disallow such a discussion when it's not illegal to talk about in real life.
