Adult Section

With the exclusive section it is easy as people sign up for it.

I am digging to find a solution.

I may be wrong, but think it's more a case that it's not visable at all, so people don't know it's there. Having a bar saying 'Adult Section - click here to access' would solve that.

Might be cos I'm getting old but I don't want to come here and see a load of offensive stuff same as I don't want to see loads of swearing, but that's just me I guess.

I agree that if you have to have an adult section then just a simple link on the home page would look better so we don't have to see things like mygrannystw**.co.uk staring up at us every time we log on

Well, i'm old as well but you cannot shove adult names into a corner, shut the door and only give the key to people who ask for it.

It is a huge part of domaining in the UK, like it or not.

You joined this forum in 2005, how many adult domain posts have you had to read in the general "for sale" forum in the last 2 years? Plenty I presume.

Is it not better that it is now segregated and you do not have to read every adult post as you scan the "for sales". Now you will only see one and if admin finds a hack, you will see none, but please don't bury it by suggesting a lowly link is the way to go.

The adult section has only been made visible to members since lunchtime today, but already there has been 11 new listings and domains sold.

In the general co.uk "for sale" section there has been 9 new listings since lunchtime.

I'm not suggesting removing it, just not inflicting it on us, like it or not.

What I would suggest is to have the adult section just don't show the actual names on the front page. If possible in the last post section have a generic message like 'Enter adult section"

Plus under the domain names for sale section does it have to be first? UK domains for sale should be top as that's what most people are looking for IMHO

I have nothing against these domains, in fact I used to do SEO for several big adult sites until a couple of years ago It's just there is a place for this sort of thing and it should, at least be, one click away.

OK I have made it its own section:
http://www.acorndomains.co.uk/adult-domain-names.html

If you use the small up arrow to the right it should hide the actual forum / last post so all you see is a heading.

Does it work?

>like it or not
Paul, if that sounded facetious it was not meant to be.


Admin,
Looks like you have found a happy medium, but is there any chance you can move the adult section up?

At present you have it at the very bottom of the "wanted" section. It would be better served if you could move it above the "Wanted Adverts" as it is a "for sale" forum.

I see no point in that in essence is a total reverse on why Adult section was created in the first place..

If you all recall children visit the forum! Some women and men don't consider it appropriate to be seeing those types of words or at least there should be a choice. No disrespect admin, swear words are no allowed but allowed if in connection with adult seems very odd!

The last thing I want to see splattered across my screen is sp***.org.uk!

olebean, you have to be a member here to see it now, if you haven't registered on this site, which includes confirming your email address, nothing will show.

I don't know about other parents here but any email sent to my 9 year old comes through me.

If you want to hide it, one click and the thread titles are not visible anymore.

For me its good enough.
