Create one.
It's extremely ridiculous that there's no place on this site where we can discuss things such as sex. And like that confessions thread Phunkie made? Can't even post my confessions in there because of the whole "kids" things you have on the forums here. It can't be that you don't see that there's a really small minority of little kids.
Honestly, I've never seen a forum where topics got censored and locked because they were about a question involving sex. It's like the staff here is the medieval church. Such as this

How do you know that kids make up a minority? Unless you've cataloged a large number of users, I don't see how you could know.
Also, keep in mind that there are people who come to this site besides users. The vast majority of lurkers could very well be made up of children. Especially since older people would just eventually make an account, a child might lack the initiative or the ability to make an account. Thus the amount of older lurkers is kept in check as older lurkers make accounts, but the young lurker amount only increases as more and more young lurkers arrive.
I think a mature discussions forum would be a good idea, in practice though, I can foresee it being a problem. Imagine users who only ever come to this site to live in that section.

That mature section can always be blocked by user age. Users who don't set their birthday are forbidden from accessing it and those who fake their bday is their own problem

http://mabination.com/mabination-community/general-discussions/everything-else/3045-whats-your-irl-age-11.html looks like a minority to me.

So this site should cater to the non-contributing lurkers? LOL. That's totally irrelevant.

And what would be the problem if some users only ever come to that section? Are users forced to post in all sections? Some users only post in bean rua here. Same deal.

This is not an accurate measure of the ages of users. We've recently seen an influx of users and none of them have posted in that thread. There are also other users who have been around who haven't posted in that thread.

Don't straw man me. I'm not talking about catering to non-contributing users. I'm talking about keeping mature content away from children who happen upon this site.

It isn't the same deal. Someone who only posts in bean rua is a person who likes to laugh. Someone who only posts in the mature forum is a pervert.

What makes you think the general age curve will suddenly be completely different? Besides, children under 13 aren't even allowed on forums normally unless the forum has installed COPPA. In reality, this is a null arguement because kids aren't allowed on here legally.

Fair enough, then that can easily be solved by only making the section visible to members who are 13+ or 16+ so we can protect the little children.

Non sequitur arguement.

How is calling a person who only wants to talk about mature topics not a pervert?

newnameforyou wrote on 2010-11-24 16:29
That's a really huge generalisation you draw there. And really, how do you come to that conclusion? That's a warped view you have there. It's the same as calling someone who only posts in bean rua a weirdo. People aren't black and white.

I don't think 16 is old enough to be talking mature topics, but if there was a mature forum, the age limits wouldn't be up to me.
Quote from Luffy;227319:

Mature topics are mature because they're sexual in nature. That's the kind of forum you wanted. You made this clear in the OP. Someone who only joins a community because they want to talk about sex and bathe their mind in sex is a pervert.
If you want to extend the label of mature to include gory or bloody topics which I would think is a bad idea in the first place, they would be a violent pervert.
Also, those who only BR are weirdos.

If the official Nexon forums won't add a mature section, and this forum is advertised by Nexon (who is always straddling the PG13 fence)...
What makes you think it's possible here?

If I missed the point you want everyone to know, wouldn't it be more helpful to just say it explicitly rather than telling me that I missed it? Obviously I won't know what you're talking about if I missed it in the first place.
And I don't even know what to say to the catholic part. This isn't about being conservative or liberal, being catholic or otherwise. What do my personal views have to do with the topic? I'm not even aware of what I said to make you think that, but it shouldn't matter.
Even if I was a conservative catholic, who cares? If you care, bringing it up in this thread will only distract from your original point and make a mature forum less likely to happen.

Why do you assume that there will be a significant portion of people will be joining this forum just for smex topics?
If that was their intention, then they would just go to some other forums designed for fetishes. Not everyone comes to this forum.
To add to this idea, I think making this forum section only accessible by members who are approved by mods/admins. So that way we won't have drastic changes in the atmosphere of this section and it will keep children out. And make sure threads made on this section don't show up in new posts/mabination home page.
Personally, I think this section would turn out great. I could recommend people some mabi dojinshi and maybe I could get some ones I haven't seen myself.
And if you think that kind of activity is perverted, then you have some serious problems. The world isn't a pure white world, get out of ur imagination and face reality.
Also, Mabinogi is a pretty mature game (come on just look at nao, morrighan, and kusina). Anyone who plays this game should be able to handle some levels of maturity. If they cannot, then they shouldn't be playing mabinogi in the first place. It is their fault.
