You know, I swear there weren't as many "unique" users on these forums (or at least, threads openly discussing weird things) in the past few years as there is now. I don't visit these forums all that often, but just by hopping on consecutively for three days I am rather astounded with what I see...
From people with animated dog fetishes, to people with other rather unsavoury personal desires confidently typing it all away in a thread. Now, I am not one to complain or throw hate around about what people like to do in their own private time but I truly do find it odd how in conjunction there are a large amount of users well under the age of 18 who are consistently active on here also. I am not expecting nor wishing the moderators to clean up or improve on some of the basic forum rules but - It really is quite surprising that such discussions are as relaxed as they are on here. Another thing that surprises me is that I have seen suspensions for mild coarse language and things like calling another user an "idiot", but nothing too firm on the levels of sexual discussion on here. You could argue that there isn't any reason to ban a user over such discussion, and I completely agree, so I should probably just get to the point:
I'll place a poll with this thread because I am curious as to how many users on here feel in any way irritated or confused about the rules when it comes to said discussions. Also, just for the record, I don't have any problems with the users who like the furry animals and all of that - yes I find it extremely odd, but they are still ordinary people. So try to avoid offensive name-calling and all of that if possible.
