    Is it possible to maybe make the NSFW category be limited only to certain groups (so not even all users can see it), and have to contact a mod stating your age (that way, if somebody under 18 DOES see something not so nice and gets you guys in trouble somehow, you can just show the application and go, "They stated they were 18"))?
  • I think vanillaforums prohibits us from showing porn at all regardless.

    It's not about us being held responsible, it's about them being held responsible, you see.

    We're no longer hosted on vanillaforums, we're hosted on Linode, which has no restrictions against showing porn.

    No, this is a self-hosted site now.

    ^^^Or that.

    And yeah, I would be in favor of restricting NSFW to 18+, if we can find a way to do it. I think Garden may already have code to do that, actually.
  • I'm a loser. Also, Creeper. And a woman.
    Crmirnauc has a good idea, IMO.

    Although that could take a while unless we appoint maybe a few "restriction" mods?
  • I am eighteen as of last month, so it's immaterial to me, honestly.

    On second thought, the NSFW category is something we were too hasty on. We'll put it somewhere only mods and admins can see for now while we think about what to do with it.

    I'm just here to gay the place up
    Oh hai. I see we have some new digs! And I am over 18 and want to see the mod sechsoring :P

    D'oh, I am on my mobile too. Will have to redo my av when I am back home later :/

    Anonus: My idea should be fairly reasonable. It covers your asses. If you were REALLY paranoid you could require pictures of ID

    If you were really, REALLY paranoid, you could wait until their account is 18 years old :P

  • Well, I'm 15 and don't really want to see it anyway, so!
  • I'm over 18 and I still don't care to see it.

    I don't think we'll allow cybering, but yeah, there might be porn linked. I think one of the concerns is FiM Rule 34, actually.
  • Concerning indeed.

    There's a possibility that someone - not naming any names, here - might post pictures of exposed bosoms.

    I haven't a clue. I mean, who likes boobs here, anyway?

    Omg Imi, you said you wouldn;t tell anyone I would do that
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Actually, in all seriousness, I couldn't see myself doing much of that.

    But still, the NSFW business needs to be resolved somehow or other.

    Hmm, maybe for the NAUT SAYF FUH WERK stuff, we could make a subdomain forum or something, and it could have a darker version of the HH theme so one could easily tell the difference. If that's possible, of course.

    "nsfw.heapershangout.com" or something? Either way, that'd be a good solution so the people who would like to have an account there could, and the rest of us could stay here in the main Heap.

    I guess.

  • No.


    And I don't really want one to be honest.


    I'm fine with the way things are now that we're a bit more flexible.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Not sure we need a porn section either.

    How about: you can link to NSFW stuff, but it MUST be labeled as such. And no NSFW embeds.
  • I'm a loser. Also, Creeper. And a woman.
    We don't need Avatars either. We don't need a lot of these options. There's nothing wrong with having more.

    You don't want to go in, don't ask for the password. I don't see it as a separate section a problem whatsoever, anyway.
  • The sadness will last forever.
    I want Avatars. :(

    This sounds ok.
  • I'm a loser. Also, Creeper. And a woman.
    Avatars are "it looks nice".

    And no, the clubhouse analogy doesn't work. You have to be 18+ to view any porn. It's been like that forever.

    Likewise, beyond that, you have the choice of going there as long as you're atleast 18.

    I don't remember this place being obligated to only appeal to people who don't want to view porn. As long as we show it without causing any troubles, only those who wish to view it can see it. Which means nobody gets hurt, etc.

    I see no issues with a password protected section.

    Imi's idea does not prevent underage people from seeing the image, which is part of the issue here.

    A porn section is a horrible idea.
  • Avatars are also for differentiating users.

    Um, that's a non sequiter...
