Suggestion A gore forum?

[Blazed Druid]

I would like to apply to open a new part of the forum. a gore forum to talk about 18+ stuff. its annoying to be not able to talk to people about.. well.. crazy shit without beeign reported. a place we could chill the fk away and share scary videos i would get banned for in other stuff liek chit chat or screenshots.

No. Chit chat is just a social aspect of our boards.

Yes 18+ could be fine. But still moderated. Gore is not an option. Pornography is not an option. It isn't that kinda forum.

each time I read the word gore it reminds me of LOTR

and thats why we have SUB forums =))

PS: 18+ sub forums in the chit chat should be fine =)

 

[Blazed Druid]

we have PLENTY of boards that would not belong to DEVELOPMENT and the stuff you mentioned Ghost.

yellowhat made a tibiaporn with me where 2 dwarves have fun. Where can i post it? nude. 18+. 18+ forum pls.

"Gore," as in dead bodies and such? Um, this is an OPEN TIBIA FORUM. "Hell no" is my answer. There are still kids present on these forums every day. Look at these types of pictures on your own time without destroying our community.

On the other hand, if Talaturen wanted to open a sub-forum in the Chit Chat area for adults only (as in, we can discuss adult related matters) based on our profile's DOB, that's fine with me. Of course I still expect a certain level of moderation to be within such a section - sometimes things can get out of hand and still be very inappropriate for such a community. By the way, I believe "21 & over" is more suited for such a section, not 18, but that's just my opinion on the matter.

What would be considered "adult related matters" and why can't it be discussed in the current boards?

I don't know. I'm not the one that wants this board, but I don't see anything wrong with having one, as long as it is moderated. There are things adults talk about that kids shouldn't be around to hear.

I'm not a parent, but if I had a son or daughter on this forum I wouldn't want him/her looking at pictures of dead bodies, that's for damn sure.

EDIT: By the way, I'm talking about an adult chit chat area. Bloody gore stuff is not acceptable, in my opinion, for this community.

 

[Blazed Druid]

Ofc not. as a parent myself I dont want her to see stuff liek that. Its litterly amazing to be able to talk about stuff liek that. the meaning of death. with videos to prove things you say. If certain people dont want tos ee that stuff or even read about it they can litterly skip it/dont even click on it.

 

[Alyyy]

people like you aint even worth a response

 

[Fallen]

Gore board? Negative, forget it.

 

[Amiroslo]

bitch please, you can gtfo now =))

 

[Blazed Druid]

Its so sad to see how people arent able to discuss when reasons are given.

There are 10000 other forums to go to if you want Gore and similar things...

@up
But what if he already have freinds here, and have a long history and knows a lot of people and doesnt want to start @ a new place?

But you're not a parent.

Anyway - You miss my point. I said chitchat was for the other talk unrelated.

The chitchat was an added subforum that is not the main focus of this forum. The chitchat was made for anything that doesn't fit in this forum

No. Chit chat is just a social aspect of our boards.

However - an unmoderated board is not going to happen. Nevermind a "gore" board. And your example with two dwarves is innocent. But bodies, severed arms, decapitated heads is not. It does not belong on this forum. We already have chitchat for unrelated tibia material and that is regulated just fine. I agreed with the 18+ potentially being a good idea - i just disagree with an unmoderated "gore" board.

Still, could you give an example of something? you say yourself it's not about gore pictures, so I assume it's not porn either. You must have something in mind when saying "adult related matters". You kinda need to define what you're talking about if we're to get anywhere with this proposal - now it's way too broad and it can easily just be dismissed because of that. Would talking about suicide be considered a 18+ topic? relationship advice? sex?

Um, I suppose relationships and sexual encounters are appropriate. Sure, those could be one of the topics of discussion in such a board, if one were made.

Um, I suppose relationships and sexual advice is appropriate for adults. Sure, those could be.

So in this new board, those would be acceptable topics? would this board be hidden by members who are underage or would this board simply be marked as a "18+" board, which you enter at your own risk?

I don't know, I suppose. I'm not deciding what happens here. I just don't want to see bloody pictures of dead bodies among the community. This is an OpenTibia forum (with mostly young members, and a few adults). If it were up to me, I would have ended this discussion with an explanation of why such topics are innapropriate for an OpenTibia community, and then closed this thread in hopes that everyone would be civilized enough to move on without further incident.

I'm just trying to get some discussion going that actually goes somewhere, else we'll just have the usual crap of a mod coming with some reasons dismissing everything, such as: "not fitted for otland bla bla, who would mod bla bla" etc., and then closing the topic. Not that it's a guarantee that this goes anywhere just because we discuss it further than "a 18+ board would be nice", but I prefer it that way.

 

[J.Dre]

I can see why having an adult area would be somewhat appropriate, considering a lot of 'senior members' are now adults. However, such an area would probably be pointless as there are likely a very small amount of people willing to publicly discuss personal matters on the internet. Wouldn't you agree? So, in the end, would it make sense to open a board for this? Probably not. With that being said, I don't mind if such an area were created, as long as it is moderated.
