Even I feel the same way. Admins do have a responsibility towards the younger generation and I feel they have thought about the rules before making them.

Similarly the younger generation also have a responsibility.😳


EGGJACTLY. And our responsibility lies in trying to put forward our points, and trust the Mods to take the right decision. 😊

Brilliant suggestion Sharneil! A bunch of my favourite writers have decided to discontinue their brilliant FFs and I am pissed beyond limit..Why must we all be deprived of such brilliant fiction just because some people can't understand the difference between vulgarity/sexually explicit content and love making? And honestly, I highly doubt that teenagers/kids are as innocent as IF makes them out to be..I know of 13 to 16 year olds who know all about the kamasutra for heaven's sake! IF honestly cannot think that by making the site do darn prude they are keeping "innocent" minds from being polluted, well guess what, those minds were not so "innocent" to begin with..

What saddens me is that we can provide good suggestions but no one is going to listen..IF will be as staunch as ever :(

It's a reasonable solution Shalu. Let's hope they take notice and do something about it.

Though, seriously, censoring the web is just so not happening. It's just impossible. Anyway, like you said..not our problem if kids want to make fake accounts to read those stories.

I have a 9 year old niece...and she doesn't even know of IF..though she does use the internet. She's still into dolls, and just now reading Nancy Drew. And I would rather throw the laptop away than have her surf this website. Soaps aren't for children. Period. But I can see that not all kids might be as naive as her. If any of those kids are reading this...seriously..honey...go outside. Play. There's a whole life ahead of you to read hot stuff on IF! 😊

Cheers!

Agreed to all the reasonable solutions here , but what about the fact that people can change their DOB to access these "moderated" parts ...
My another suggestion would be to not allow anyone to change their DOB once entered (many kids actually might give their correct DOB in the first instance) ...

and secondly , if many din know , once upon a time , multiple id's cudn be created using the same ip at IF . God knows what happnd to that rule thou !! Since during that time , mods(me included) were becoming sherlock holmes n james bonds trying to track down multiple accounts with same ip's

again , as told by many , its subjective what a 9 year old can see n what he/she cannot. What a 9 yr old knows in US may be too much compared to a 9 yr old in India. I just hope rules are revised as they always have been

@ Shalu : I seriously suggest you to put a word to one of the mods here to move this to suggestions section after a couple of days . So that someone atleast will have a look at it and some steps are atleast thought of .

@red: who doesn't? 😆 we're not all complete losers you know, just because we come here to write, discuss, gush about the latest episodes, etc. 😳

@dark blue: YUP. Agreed right there. Which is why I always "liked" your posts and never commented on them! LOL. Cos I found it intimidating to even say a word on ur threads. 😆 But then again, as a writer, I'm not just writing. I read too. You'd know what I mean. You write, and from what you just said, you read too. And everytime I read someone else's work, I learn something from it. What to do and what NOT to do. 😆 We're all here to learn, discuss, share... People shouldn't be restricted to post, just because their english isn't good enough. They'll learn the art of writing, and learn to see beauty in language gradually. All we need is time to get better at this art! 😳


@Pink: I never said to add an age restriction. I meant, the writers of the "mature" posts can add the simple HTML COMMAND PROMT that will restrict users of 18 and above to view the post. Just like you post the NOCOPY or the MEMBERSONLY commands! SImple as that! In that way, the 9 year olds can be protected and the older ones can be refrained from viewing what's not to be read by their ages.

@green: none of our problems. If they do such a thing, it's their choice. it's their own business, and if their parents are fine with it, I don't know why we should bother. If their parents don't know about it, well, they're failing at their jobs then.

@grey: EXACTLY MY POINT. if the admins have a responsibility towards the younger generation, then they should not in ANY CASE forget about the older generation. We are users of India Forums as well you know?

@black: times change. people change. you as an adult, has lived life and experienced more than most of us here. You'd have had the privilege to witness such a change. and if this change is occurring, I don't see why IF should not reform with times. It's not just the establishment of a unit that's important, it's its maintenance that also matters. keeping the essential groundwork of what's been established, and also moving forward with times. You will probably not believe this but i know 16 year olds who DID THE DEED. and this was 4 years ago. :/ IN INDIA OKAY! NOT SOMEWHERE ELSE! just a small example. In HK they DO IT when they're 12 yrs old. According to my classmates here, at university.

As you can see, I have edited my comments...even before I saw your replies. I just skimmed through the thread and replied. I should have gone through the thread properly before commenting. I did not mean to challenge your views. Sorry for the inconvenience. 😳

I can see that all of you are frustrated about "pandora's box' which I never even read. I should have at least read it before commenting.

Yes I do not about 16 years old doing the DEED. 😆

I guess my comments gave you the impression I am 40 year old your with two-three kids, which I am not. 😳😆
