After reading some stuff at the newspapers, internet and remembering some of the kids I met when I was 9 I'd say...No. Not at all. Actually, I've met 25 years old and older that got some pretty twisted concepts, but that's another conversation altogether.

I really don't get why are you guys whining so hard. If it was, like "Don't use copyrighted images as avatars" then we all would be in trouble (most of us anyway).

To be honest, all of those names can even make some people not want to go to the site in the first place, because it makes some really bad first impressions.

Not just inappropriate names, pointless ones as well. Even if it is an inside joke or something that's not inappropriate, those are just as bad inappropriate names.

Well, not really that as much as the avatars and signatures with suggestive girls in them.

Nice grammar there buddy

Also just going to point out that if no one can handle members being assholes (Assuming that's what your implying) then they should probably leave, no one forced those kind of folks here anyways.

Are you saying i should leave ? If that's the case, I don't mind them being here, but I gotta say they're kinda flamers. Or is that just routine in SPAMHAUL ?

People shouldn't have to handle "assholes". Members should feel comfortable in a community.


And Lexou you shouldn't complain about things in the Spamhaul. Its a SPAMhaul. They have the right to do what they do there. Now outside the spamhaul is another story.

True. It's eye candy, but you can get tired of it.

the terms of registration clearly state you need to be at least 13
so anyone young enough to be offended by a picture like that wouldn't/shouldn't be allowed here in the first place

That doesn't stop anyone from just browsing the forums.


As if you've never lied about your age on the internet.
Everyone has.

And that makes it ok to break to rules?

Sure it doesn't stop them from browsing, but it stops us from catering to little children. If you want to lie about your age, then by all means do it. Just remember to keep lying and not suddenly go back to 10 again later when being 13 inconveniences you.

...your point?

A fun fact is that everyone is going to deal with assholes, on any sort of internet community and in real life. Everyone can ether deal with it, ignore it or just leave. It's all in the matter if a person can adjust to it.

Every community will have a bunch of assholes from time to time, TSR does have a few of them but it's not like it was as bad as Pixetendo 2-3 years before it shut down because the longtime members there have become more mature, sure they'll probably get frustrated with members like Iceman-404 or Pikmin Awesomeness but that doesn't mean it happens to every member on here.
