More NEGATIVE than a black hole Group: ADMINISTRATOR Posts: 19,345 Member No.: 12,263 Joined: Sep 12th 2005 Location: Update Profile | Hello IDW, The team has been working on a potential "anything goes" section of the forum. Essentially, it would be where you could post all of the NSFW stuff you want. Typical rules would naturally exist prohibiting illegal content, but it would be a relaxed environment where almost anything is allowed. My question to you is: do you want this? Would it become an issue due to potential firewall flags at work/school? Do you think it's a bad development for the site? Is it not enough of a development? Please, feel free to post here with your comments and feedback regarding this section. -T |

That's what I'm talking about. Explicit content. EDIT: Also, Trap Thread would almost certainly be moved to that section anyway. This post has been edited by Tessou on Dec 5 2015, 12:53 PM |

That would be pretty awesome to the max~ But like Kyon said, should be somewhere hidden deep within the commie~subforums to not scare off the kiddos. | ||

More NEGATIVE than a black hole Group: ADMINISTRATOR Posts: 19,345 Member No.: 12,263 Joined: Sep 12th 2005 Location: Update Profile | When one panda treats a younger panda like a bowling ball, that makes me a very sad panda. I don't know about hiding a subforum, though. Staff can create subforums that are only visible to them, but I don't really know if it's possible to make it visible to specific sets of regular members and not others, without becoming too complex. A simpler solution would be an age gate or disclaimer page or agreement of some sort before entering, to wash the site's hands of liability in case somebody gets offended by content within. "You knew what you were potentially getting into. You signed the agreement." Perhaps creating a UCP option for "visible 18+ section" would be viable, much like the ability to shut off signatures. |

Patient Zero Group: Advanced Members Posts: 4,279 Member No.: 37,947 Joined: Oct 1st 2011 Location: Update Profile | I'm going to be the prude and say that maybe this is a bad idea. Sure we can set up regulations and disclaimer pages. But if we do go through with this and have explicit content on the site, I'm afraid I can't come back. I have eyes watching my browsing history and I already feel weird looking through the forums at work. Definitely I can and do lurk the technical stuff whenever I'm bored but the community things and the Trap Club thread I try to shy away from. Bottom line is that if we do get a subforum where people can talk about NSFW things, I'm out... I mean I'm already inactive as is, but I'll be like... more inactive. That's probably not a loss for most people though, but I'm just throwing that out there. [ Post made via Mobile Device ] |

As expected of country grown vegetables Group: Special Snowflake Posts: 2,330 Member No.: 19,520 Joined: Aug 14th 2006 Location: Redondo Beach, CA. | Nope. This is Initial D world, not the ecchi skecchi one touchi world. The threads currently in off-topic are par for the course on off-topic boards for a lot of forums, and they don't have (or need) a nsfw board either. It's a bad idea, the fact that it made it this far into consideration? Come on guys... The trap and girls threads should be moved to off-topic instead.

ShiMACHaze Group: Advanced Members Posts: 19,542 Member No.: 5,394 Joined: Feb 5th 2005 Location: Drydock | As much as I'd love to discuss doujins and shit with you all, such discussion would probably push boundaries that should not be pushed. I won't die if I can't talk about this stuff on a forum. That's what chat programs are for, and that one blog I haven't updated in forever that I should get off my ass and update already. |

More NEGATIVE than a black hole Group: ADMINISTRATOR Posts: 19,345 Member No.: 12,263 Joined: Sep 12th 2005 Location: Update Profile | This feedback is actually quite surprising. We've had a subforum set up for over a month ready to activate for public use, but if you guys are seriously against it, I respect your wishes. This is why I put up the thread in the first place. Thanks everybody that chimed in. We're taking this feedback to heart when shaping the development of the forum. |

As expected of country grown vegetables Group: Special Snowflake Posts: 2,330 Member No.: 19,520 Joined: Aug 14th 2006 Location: Redondo Beach, CA. | To be honest, I'd rather see the /r/ chan get some actual use and have that be the nsfw board. I suppose as long as there's nothing from Google or Baidu crawing into the nsfw board and flagging us or something, I'm slightly more okay with it. Still, I'd rather not have a nsfw section at all, it's really not what this forum (or community for that matter) should be about. |

I thought that with the state of Initial D discussion in 2015, this was already a forum about nothing.

Group: Advanced Members Posts: 13,455 Member No.: 1,473 Joined: Mar 18th 2004 Location: Update Profile | I would be okay with a NSFW section, but as I haven't read all the posts on the thread, will there be any moderators for it, or the admins 'look into' the members that are underage and boot em out? Or can we do a 'beta' test for it, have the admin pick members who they know are adults, as well as (elitism go) OG members or well known and give it a go? |

More NEGATIVE than a black hole Group: ADMINISTRATOR Posts: 19,345 Member No.: 12,263 Joined: Sep 12th 2005 Location: Update Profile | Nothing set in stone, but the plan (if we implement the new section) is to run a disclaimer that absolves the site of liability, much like an age gate. You can say you're 21 or 18 or whatever, even though you're not, and gain access. It's a waste of time to set people on task to find out who is lying about their age. If you want access, you opt-in. That's all there is to it. If not, you won't see it, nothing will bleed into the rest of the site, and your moral fabric will remain safe from such things as explicit fanfiction and pictures that already exist elsewhere on the internet. And no, as it would be rendered invisible to any guests, which includes web crawlers, it would not affect site ranking and/or results. |

Patient Zero Group: Advanced Members Posts: 4,279 Member No.: 37,947 Joined: Oct 1st 2011 Location: Update Profile | Just because it is invisible to me does not mean it does not exist on the forums. I agree with Sensation! on the basis that it is still an ill advised idea. But if that is what the community is about now then I won't stop you guys from doing what you want. I'll just spend my time on other places in the internet. (I'm not threatening to leave. That's stupid. But I am letting anyone who cares know that I won't be coming back if this happens.)
