Default 18+ Forum
I know all of CP is intended for an audience of 13 years old and up, but many of us are Adults so how about a sub forum that's for 18 years + and up?

No restriction on language used.
Rules on NSFW pics are relaxed.
Threads with Mature Topics are allowed.

I think many of us would love this to happen with all the consideration of the children on this message board

Pretty sure age restrictions don't work on the internet.

Just go back to 4chan if that's the type of site you're looking for.

The site is already pretty mature in manner. The whole forum is full of mature posts. I'm not sure what kind of thing you'd like to post that'd require an 18+ forum, unless it's the obvious one -- porn. Either that or you feel an overwhelming urge to curse?

I think you might be looking for a juvenile sub-forum, not a mature one.

Good point. The forums I visit which allow "mature" content seem to be the most immature.

Perhaps CP should restrict all discussion around Puppies, kittens and rainbows?

More about my 3rd point where we'd have thread topics that arent really intended for children.
Having the freedom to curse would be nice too

Like what?

US political discussion isn't really intended for children. Iranian woman to be stoned for adultery . . . Harper funds massive project to house the homeless . . . which of these are intended for kids? There are lots more.

Are you sure by topics not intended for kids you don't just mean you want to post porn?

Well you're not really giving any examples besides "not intended for kids," so I'm just throwing out ideas.

I don't know how cursing would enhance the forum. Personally, I kind of like that people behave with a modicum of civility. At least on occasion. F-Bombs rarely raise the level of conversation.

So really it would just be the exact same forum, but with the ability to swear and post nsfw without having to click one button.

Meh

The forum as it is fairly mature compare to a lot of forums out there. The purpose an +18 forum would provide is the allowance of porn threads and visible filtered words.

I think it's unnecessary.
