Cmdr. Cracken Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 I'd have to say no to the inapproperiate smilies. Please, think of the children. OR ELSE!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 I dunno it's been awhile since children came in here... there's lotsa kids over at SWG and that lil ascii ppl i did is STILL there... XD But seriously it's been aaaaaaages since any kids have really come in here... and those smilies were decent, at least they were anatomically correct smilies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoom Rabbit Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 Let's face it. There are 'kiddie forums,' 'young adult forums' and 'adult forums.' I think we all know what an 'adult forum' is, and recognize that there aren't any at Lucasforums. Here at Aresen...it used to be a 'kiddie forum,' which is fine for me--I'm just a big kid, after all. Perhaps Aresen is becoming a 'young adult forum,' in the proud tradition of XWA (where I have personally seen three deer mating) or the current environment in the Harbor at Monkey Island (where the word penis has appeared in a topic heading.) A little bawdy, perhaps, but just on the other side of that all-important *decency* line. Make note: pushing the envelope in this way is a tenuous process, and if you get it wrong you'll make my buddy Cracken here grumpy. Beware the giant red letters--he isn't joking. So. I would propose that the risqué smilies are acceptable, but some of the more *explicit* dialogue that's been going on lately just might be too much so...remember, a hypothetical eight year-old could click on your post, then run off to ask mommy what a 'vibrator' is. Disaster. The 'dancing smilies' or our little 'panty raids,' though, are more harmless...it's all gray, and we have to decide how dark a gray is too dark. Anyway. My two cents.

Cmdr. Cracken Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 I understand we're in a slight transition period from kiddie to young adult, as most of the Aresener's are getting older over the years. but please keep in mind that Lucasforums is ment to be family friendly. As the Zoom-zen one said. You never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 Thank you, Cracken, Zoomy, you have been making a point that I have hinted at quite a few times. Ii notice things have gotten out of hand MANY times and I am not saying that I can't take that stuff, but think of the kids. The kids! I mean they come on here see that stuff and say the stuff or apply it to their everyday life because they think some of you are 'cool'. And parents wonder where their kids get this garbage into their head from. That is why I am hesitant about posting here, because I don't want to take part in that. Mark my words, I have spoken. Ah, that feels good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilleApplePie Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 Psh. All this talk of corrupting the kiddies...please...what do you think public school does?!?!?! We are not *nearly* as raunchy as public school. We always pad everything. Bah. I lost my innocence to public school, the internet had nothing to do with it.

I'm "cool" The youngest person I know on the boards is Ty or Zed (12 or 13 or around there) and believe me.... they've already lost their innocence XP And EAP is right... school is much worse... at least where I live <.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 oh yeah, the worst place is the school yard. not only are things like this talked about and used but add to it the peer pressure of being 'cool' and you've got kids minds being stretched and warped in all directions off the atomic scale...

Zoom Rabbit Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 Well, from what I remember of public school, we used to talk about stuff that would make a one-legged sailor blush. I'm sure they can't learn anything here that they don't know already... They won't be learning it from me, though. I'll teach 'em how to conduct a proper panty raid, but once they have ahold of the things they're on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfnshannon Posted June 23, 2003 Author Share Posted June 23, 2003 hey guys - i forgot i even posted this thread. ne ways. I understand and will confirm to the "no questionable smiley sex content". I was just wondering because I've never seen anything in the rules that said anything about smiley porn. No offence. Just wondered. And kids visit the forums??

But as he said, its not like I don't get it. I've seen the real stuff, I don't need to get all giddy off a smile. If the kid knows what it means, why bother. They won't find out sex by looking at a 2 smilies. And btw, there are a lot of younger people at the Swamp now. Some younger than Ty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
