Adult Posts

I think they should be in the correct section but your never going to stop that as new people join up and they don't read the rules .

I find your post offensive as it is patronising and insinuates sexism I didn't even know she was female when I made my post.

I think that some people have the ability to see something they might find distastfull and just ingore it and move on, where others feel the need to try to sensor everything they find distasteful with the misguided belief that they are doing everyone a favour.

To threaten to report people who post adult names for sale that a person personaly finds offensive is oversensitive and ridiculous, they are just words, made up of letters in the Alphabet, get over yourselves.

That wasn't what Caz said. From what I understand, there isn't a problem with adult domains as long as they are posted in the correct section.

I mean the severe ones that can only be in relation to illegal activity of an adult nature.

It's not about reporting names that are 'personally offensive' or generally adult in nature, it's about reporting ones which are obviously describing an illegal act (whether typo or not).

Exactly.

And I haven't the time or inclination to try and censor peoples posts, but as it says above, anything which is against the law in this way, miss spelt or not, should not be able to be viewd in public.

Taken from a pm I sent to someone earlier...

Domainers seem to be despised in a few Internet circles and the few people I've tried to explain what I try and do, buying and selling domains have had a look at acorn and pointed out all the bad bits.

I guess that's what a community or club site is like but like yourself there are some lovely people on acorn and I thought I was certain that the majority wanted a good business type site with banter yes but nit a free for all. That looks good for a bit but after a while the new people who are attracted to joining see it as the norm and before you know it the good people leave or visit less.

Do we really want this as the Norm?

And to the person who left this negative reputation

'personal attacks are out of order'

I was not aware I had made a personal attack, I really like and respect the poster of the domain that is mentioned, and I did not point to a thread nor give any clue.

Look if you think the forum is fine as it is, then get on with it.
 
I would be interested to know what your opinions are of non adult related names that describe illegal activity, like roberry.co.uk mugging.co.uk, shoplifting.co.uk, carjacking.co.uk, stabbing.co.uk, call me pedantic if you wish, but is it just illegal adult activity related names which you find abhorrent?

I personally do not own any offensive names, a couple of mild adult ones, but that's it, and I agree that they should be in the correct place, its just the holy-er than thou attitude of some people that annoys me, as most of the time these people are the most hypocritical.
