  Or seven people don't understand that sometimes, a topic is too mature for some age demographics to see.

  Or seven people who-
  
  I got nothing.

  Seriously?
  
  After we finally give way to your requests for more mature discussions (ahem, TEXT) to be allowed, you want it to be revoked?

  No matter what you guys may claim, it's a double standard. Words can do just as much as images.
  Stop making excuses, srsly. I'll respect your wishes, but not when your wishes are retarded, hypocrite and biased wishes.
  
  Seriously. Either allow them both, or don't. They go hand in hand.
  Talking about it is no different from posting a picture about it.
  
  @ Kaz; no, we don't want it revoked because frankly there is no reason for it to be revoked. However, if you allow that, you have to allow 'nude' images. (to an extent) otherwise it's stupid to have that rule.
  
  Why on earth don't we have a mature section? Not like it's that hard to create a section for these things with an age limit. I had been meaning to implant one on my own Forum for ages. I've seen also game fansites with it back in the day.

  Do you mods want me to post my sexually explicit porn text?
  
  Do you?

  You guys were the ones who asked for mature discussions. They do not go hand in hand. I can read a discussion and not feel like I'm staring at a photo of a penis.
  
  
  
  And what in the world made you think text porn = mature discussion?

  yes. if you're going to disallow NONsexual nudity, you should at least disallow SEXUAL conversation.
  
  NUDITY is not PORN. thus your WORD porn != IMAGE porn argument is completely invalid. we're not ASKING to be able to post PORNOGRAPHIC IMAGERY.

  I'm kind of agreeing with the "ban both or don't," because I have seen some things go in kind of an iffy direction. That being said though, I'd rather the "ban both" road be taken, because I for one don't want to be seeing a penis or a vagina or anything related on my screen, thanks.

  It's mature if people comment on it and tell me ways to improve it, is it not?

  Parents are less likely to spot the word penis than an image of one. There is a thin line between what is appropriate and inappropriate if we allow nudity on the forum.

  The only reason mature discussion was allowed is because the members were whining about it. It wasn't our decision to up and allow it.[/SIZE]

  And yet some parents instantly see the word penis.

  to be completely honest, i (and likely coy, though you'd have to ask her) don't care either way if you ban or allow both. it's the unfairness going on that has us irritated, not the ban itself.

  hey man, i never asked for this forum to provide me with anything but mabi information. i posted my art because it was mabi related, and then i posted more than just that because people seemed mature enough to appreciate it, then some kid who never comes into my thread saw it and flipped a nut despite me having posted it several times before and you having seen it, fal. the only time i had ever actually censored myself blatantly was because the character in question, though the image was not meant to be sexual, was underage, and therefore i did not want to post a child's bits because that's wrong.

  So what you're telling us to do is to completely disallow mature conversation?
  
  
  Which you asked and complained about in the first place?

  Wait, when did talking about when you masturbate go from immature to mature?

  for the record, i, personally, asked for no such thing.
  
  secondly, yes. ESPECIALLY if this forum is populated with as many minors as you say. it had no place here.
