I've never understood why sex in the real world is 16+ but sex or anything sexual related is 18+ on the internet. But there is probably a reason, and thats why I have raised the idea of 18+.
As I said, its up too the moderators and what they think is suitable. I would prefer a 16+ section than none at all. But I can imagine a LOT of 16 year olds going in and giggling at everything.

Right... I am only saying 18+ because thats the age of consent for watching porn and stuff. Just being safe, but I am sure we could stretch too a 16+. But it would be what the moderators felt was needed.

All this would help the forum go down in threads that people under this age should not be reading.
It's worth pointing out that internet forums are not made for children and Big Brother is a program which is aired after the watershed and often contains sexually explicit content.

If parents don't want their kids exposed to explicit content or conversations, then perhpas they should keep a closer eye on what their kids do on the net.
Which is maybe why the admins should higher the age limit so that young eyes do not see some of the content which is talked about on here.
I don't see how it's the admins responsibilites what these young eyes see.

What would be more suitable would be if an admin were to notice a thread that they deemed too mature, they could make it so that you would have to verify you were of a certain age before going into the thread.
Thats the same idea as the section =//
Minus yours is a lot more awkward!
Hardly, your talking about a whole new sub forum exclusive to over 18. Mine is simply a stamp mods could put over it, and would avoid the clique problem.
Ok well there wouldn't be a clique, I dont see the obsession with Cliques =/. Also having a thread where only certain people can talk in is basically the same as having a small section where only certain people can talk in. We could even tie them both together and have the section then if there was a too mature thread posted in a normal section its moved.
I am just saying its an idea, and would be fun for us older members that want to talk about older things.
It's not an obsession it;s a big issue on forums. You think that if over 18s were given an entire sub forum to themselves, they wouldn't form cliques? Whether or not it's intentional, it is enevitable.

its so funny all the under 18s who have issue with it
also it wouldnt be cliquey the only people complaining are those who are not old enough to use anything like it including some that are some of youngest on here who if were my child i wouldnt even want watching bb let alone discussing adult topics all of the older members have been where you are now in being younger than age limits such as drinking clubbing etc

Not all..
I think its a great idea... obviously because I am under 18 I would prefere over 16... but if over 18 would suit the forum better and would be safer I wouldn't mind... please don't compare us all to Gazbo..

:tongue:

As I have stated before I don't actually care very much about whether I would be able to use it, I'm just looking at all the problems that go along with it.:rolleyes:

Persoanlly I don't really want to discuss sex on a BB forum. I have other places for that.:whistle:

16+ I reckon. 'Cos that's the legal age for sex, and most of us 16yos have drunk alchohol/smoked etc. (which was only made illegal like last year ... )

I've brought this up before and I'm sure Lauren and Linda have too.

I don't recall bringing it up.. and to be honest, it's probably a bit ageist.. I've already been on the receiving end of some ageist comments today, so I dun wanna be dishing any out. LoL

Hmm, tbh I think this is a Big Brother forum, and even though it would be fun, I dont think we should branch of in to adult issues... yet. :whistle:
