Threads dragged off topic by the same old shit!

Bit off topic maybe, but internet laws are global. What?s illegal in the States, is illegal in Europe, Asia etc. Just the implementation of these laws differ. My brother is a lawyer who specifically deals with internet scams, that?s how I know. Whether flirting and trying to have cybersex on an open forum is illegal, I have no idea. I do agree it is very annoying though.

It became "illegal" the moment sex acts were being described in basically every other post in the open forum. As I said before(most here already know this), there are a bunch of kids that post here. Parents who let their kids come here have no idea that their kid can go to one of the most popular sections of this forum and get graphic descriptions of anal sex and other sex acts.

What?

This is just fucking stupid imo.

The whole cybersex/flirting/clogging the threads, should be stopped because it's making the threads unreadable and is something people can take to pm's if they wanted to. Not because it's illegal.

People can say fuck here. Should there be a disclaimer that people might find a word here they find offensive? What about a disclaimer that it's possible that people might find people who might not agree with everything someone says?

Or should Bush bring democracy to this board that is now run by Nazis?

This sort of shit is exactly what's wrong with everything. There are things that shouldn't be done because they're stupid/not suitable for a situation/[some other common sense reason here], not because it's illegal.

Maybe it's because when I grew up, we had no R-ratings in our tv-shows. Nudity and cursing were not some taboos that were brought up as the corrupting force in the children. The internet is filled with porn that's only a disclaimer away. Does that disclaimer make it okay and/or does it stop a kid from viewing porn? No. At least they know what's coming? This is a GN'R-website with a forum. GN'R is not the most child suitable band in any way.

A thread should not be clogged with porn because it's illegal. It shouldn't be done because it's making the board harder to read, and because it's really not contributing to the discussion in any way (except for a  few threads here I won't mention).

I've been really busy with my university projects for the last month, and I don't know what the situation is at the moment, but I do hope people would think for themselves so that we could get back on the topics that make some sort of sense. I know there are people who are at the ages between 14-20, and that you think about sex all the time. But people grow up and the rate comes down to about 96% of the time. (or so I've seen in a really credible documentary about the O.C.) If you feel the need to just flirt and go cyber, please do it somewhere else.

(this btw is not in any way an official stand of the board on the situation, but I belive /J's said just about the same things in other threads many.. many.. many times.)

[SLCPUNK]

Can we quit beating around the bush here and start talking about anal sex again?

I would prefer  talking about oral sex.

To Skeba:


I didnt mean what was going on here is actually "illegal", as in Jarmo and mods doing prison sentences for the constant sex talk. There is a fine line in the internet world between what is "legal" and "illegal", and when you throw hundreds of minors into the mix, then that changes the whole situation. There has to be a line that cant be crossed. Yeah, people here(most members and even mods) say fuck, shit, etc. That is something that is pretty commom in society, and its something alot of kids probably even hear at school. There is nothing "illegal" about a minor hearing such words. But when you start getting into graphic descriptions of anal sex, oral sex,eating cum,etc. then I think you are coming really close to crossing the line, and probably a step away from becoming an adult site, or even a site that requires a credit card to verify age, or God forbid, even being shut down.

That bullshit can easily be gotten under control. Its only a select group of people that keep on doing it, and dealing with them would send a clear message that that type of bullshit isnt tolerated.

i don`t know man.....  i think you americans are taking this shit way to seriously actually

remember this janet jackson thing at the superbowl?? nobody gave a shit about that here....

i get the point though.... people talking about anal sex in threads dedicated to other topics isn`t really helpful to keep this board cool and clean....i never noticed that stuff anyways, since i only check the jungle about once a week.....could you enlighten me on that?

i don`t know about that "minors" thing though.....  i give a shit about that. i just don`t like the fact, that discussions on this board are getting more and more off topic for the last couple of months now.... it`s not really possible anymore to have good discussions in the main gnr section, because of all the crap there... i saw 10 locked threads there a while ago...

[jameslofton29]

That shows that Jarmo and the mods are doing a great job. There are going to be times when page 1 of the GNR section is going to be loaded with locked threads. Especially in times when there is a little GNR news to talk about. Alot of people dont seem to read the rules or read other threads before posting, so a shitload of threads being locked or deleted isn't really a surprise.

As far as the anal sex cesspool in The Jungle goes, since you haven't been in that section much to see what was happening, I will send you a PM and tell you about it when I get off work. Or you could just read one of the threads in that section from the past 4 months.

i expected the gnr section being flooded by nonsens threads when i read about that axl interview, but the mods really did a great job then

[jarmo]

We try to merge as many similar threads as possible, but then we get asked why we deleted the threads....
