So how long have we had an adult forum?

Some adults don't want to discuss sexual issues and some won't appreciate excessive swearing.
The thing I don't get is that the site rules state that the PG-13 rule is due to the server rating. So I don't know if that has changed, or if we really don't have more freedom now and this section is just for mature topics.:question:

looks like he set it up to arbitrarily filter out and send here any threads with specific words in the title, like "sex" and "suicide"
just like the swear filter, in it's current (slightly silly) iteration, filters out "j e r k" and any common english word with the letters "a n a l" in them - obviously set up to discourage porn bots and porn search engines from descending on us
the main concern seems to be trying not to offend the sponsors who purchase advertising space here, NOT the views or opinons of the users

FWIW, I personally have no problem with swearing.
I was actually starting to wonder that. That would have been an awful lot of work to manually move all those threads. Also, threads like Post a Picture of Your Sexy Cat aren't exactly about anything sexual, so it seemed like it was automatic.
It's pretty pathetic when you can't use words like ana1ogy without having to get past the swear filter. Why not just make the site PG already?:idontknow:
Uh-oh, they might get upset because somebody used the word j3rk in a non-sexual context.
For some reason I actually haven't seen any ads here lately - just blank space where they would be. I have Adblock Plus installed but I don't have any filter subscriptions because most of the time, I don't have a problem with ads. I just made a couple of custom filters to block some really annoying and intrusive ads. When I mouse over the icon it says nothing is blocked and I still saw no ads when I temporarily disabled it.:question:
I would like to make a couple of suggestions for minor improvements, but I'm pretty sure it would fall on deaf ears anyway.

I just noticed it the other day. I love how the Sexy Cat thread is in there. :bigsmile: You might as well put the Food Pictures thread in there too, since it's loaded with food porn.
^ This made me laugh.
Maybe now we can finally have that 'post your boobs' thread. That ought to increase traffic, too! erfect:
