[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"]The internet is a vast place....I'm sure you can find what you seek. Happy hunting.Cube_of_MooN
I agree. And besides, it is important to remember that Gamespot is a gaming website dedicated to games, not adult themed sxual discussion...

[QUOTE="needled24-7"]Yes but how would it regulate who can go there and who can't?THE_DRUGGIE

Set an automatic program that uses the user's birthday information they entered and see if it equals 18.

Most of the people (minor) won't put their real age.

Exactly lol, that would be the stupidess idea, it would never even work. You can't have a part of a community for just older peope? Its the internet, people would just lie about there age.

No. Mature issues are allowed to be discussed here, if you're mature about it. I do think, though, that the ToU is far, far, far too petty and ensures that the mods treat us like six year olds but those rules must apply to everything here within the community. You can't have a place that is immune to it.

Why, because the Internet lacks that content?duxup
Oh, that's a ridiculous argument. There's also plenty of other forums on the internet, so why bother having OT? :roll:

Let's keep those eye rolls to a minimum, people. There are many places on the internet for eye rolling and OT is not one of them. Thanks.

In my defence, the function of the ':roll:' in question was to indicate that the statement preceding it was a reductio ad absurdum and not actually my point of view.

No need to defend yourself. I just wanted to reference to the don't-talk-about-women rule we have, since your argument kind of coincides with my thoughts on that. >.>

Really though if you want the real answer is because there is content the people who own the site don't want on it. There ya go :roll:

I wouldnt say no to a fetish-union, but I think it'd be locked down and we'd all be banned.....

Perhaps with a fairly strong mod presence. If somebody is consistantly acting in an immature manner(3 strikes maybe?) they would be banned from the forum.

I've suggested an 18+ forum and a Politics forum in suggestions.

It took like 5 seconds for a mod to flat out say no and locked the thread.

I can live without an 18+ forum, but I'd LOVE a politics forum. Not because I like to talk about politics, but because I hate seeing politics threads on OT

They have a NSFW room on the Nine Inch Nails forum, hardly anyone uses it and it is full of useless threads. Hence, I think Gamespot can do without it.

Not to mention an adults only forum would be full of kids anyway.

No. There shouldn't be a place for people who just want to talk about sex and porn. The mods would shut it down the first day.

and the kids would just fake their age.

Mature UK and Mature US are two different things as well. Legal ages are different.

I think it'd be better if there was a disclaimer for a certain topic. For the fetish topic, if a mod or the TC said that by viewing the topic you agreed that you were 18+, and that GS could not take the blame for any kids seeing the content...

But not a whole new "section".

Even though your opinion is false, I must agree about the statement above.
