Maybe have it like the pixel art group - you have to join the group to see the forum - but there is no badge.
Therefore it is up to the person.

Or you have to be a certain age upon sign up if thats possible :S
On the topic of age limits and that on the teenhelp.org forum they have a modification in place that you need to be (i believe) 16 to view a forum.
The forum in question on teenhelp is 'Non PG-13 Discussion'.
I spose u could password protect it. and then join agroup to get the password or something.
or just leave it the way it is, if users looks at that forum they should expect to see some sexual content and words, i think they should just put a bigger notice or make it underlined or something "this forum contains threads of a sexual nature, discretion is advised"
The fact is its not allowed and children around 12 are being submitted to sexual material, because mods dont seem to know the rules.
We do know the rules, thank you.Quote:

As it has been pointed out, the rule has become more and more slack over the past year, until now it isn't enforced as much as it used to be. If you disagree with this, I'd suggest PMing ---MAD--- and talking about it.
Thankyou for explaining, but it wont change my opinion, this rule needs to be re-enforced.Quote:

I always thought it was obvious that Habbox Forum Rules contradict each other? Well, welcome to the glorious world of Habbox Forum and their badly orchestrated rules :)
Also, children of the age of 11 learn about sexual education, as far as I believe anyway. I first learnt a bit about it in Year 5 or 6, so that would of made me 9 or 10 years of age? This was at school by the way, not just general boredom and wanting to 'learn.'
Sorry, but I disagree. If you have a 'Teen Life' (or similar) section on a Forum there are going to be threads with mild sexual content. The fact is, this Forum is increasingly becoming non-Habbo in terms of it's members and the majority of those members are in their teens and therefore they are going to be looking for advice which may be of a slightly sexual nature.
The rule states - "A26. It is not allowed to talk about adult subjects like making love / sleeping with somebody or sexual details in anyway - Because this forum is meant for people of all ages, and teenagers in particular, it is NOT allowed to talk about subjects that could be not suitable for younger members." - although some of the threads are like that, not all of them are explicitly sexual. This rule simply backs up what I have said earlier by saying "teenagers in particular", teenagers are the ones who are going to be asking the majority of this mildly sexual questions...
