Posted April 5, 200817 yr sorry guys, i was asked to remove the sexual content of the thread but seeing as it was mainly interlinked with other points being made and my time here is limited today, i deleted the whole thread. tbh i dont really see what the problem was though, everything was discussed in a 'clean' manner and theres nothing that hasnt been mentioned here before. plus some topics in the lounge are worse and some peoples usernames are as bad.... <_<
April 5, 200817 yr Political correctness gone mad :manson: Not the fact you pulled it, fully understand there given how busy you are, but the fact that people complained in the first place This is the "adults" section of the board, that is not to say it should be adults only but also MATURE younger people so anyone reading this section of the board who can not handle issues shouldn't read it in the first place, it is utterly ridiculous beyond belief that people should complain about a thread like that that was being discussed in a mature way among adults :manson: I think management should put a disclaimer up the forum main page where all the forums are listed saying that people of a sensitive disposition should not open this section of the board Its a shame that sensitive kids have bought about the end of a very good mature debate in an adult section of the board :(
April 5, 200817 yr adult section of the board :( The Perspectives forum isn't an adult section of the board. If yourself and others want to have a disclaimer as you called it perhaps it is worth asking the Perspectives mods to request that the forum description be changed, as currently it doesn't warn younger members of what may be discussed in the threads.

April 5, 200817 yr errr... why should I put a disclaimer :mellow: I got the impression last night from a PM I got from up above that some of the younger members of the board were offended by the nature of the topic if it was The Lounge I would 100% agree but like the News/Perspectives forum is always likely to have stronger more serious debate and so on than say Lounge so I think that those who are like easily offended would be better off not reading threads in this section than stifling really good debate Just my $0.02 though
April 5, 200817 yr It doesn't matter why it was removed, it was removed with good cause. Now can we please drop it? Thank you.
April 5, 200817 yr It doesn't matter why it was removed, it was removed with good cause. Now can we please drop it? Thank you. Fair enough ^_^ But as a final point I would like to point out the title on the main page "Thought provoking and controversial issues", the fact that it states that there will be controversial issues discussed should make people realise there will be controversial viewpoints stated by contributors so those people who complained should keep their politically correct noses out of this section of the board when it clearly warns them that controversial stuff will be discussed :) This is my final post on the matter as am proud of my 0% warning level and want to keep it at 0%

Anyway i'm done talking about this now, i've wasted far too much energy on it already. Closed.
