The Teen Life Section

I think something needs to be done about this section perhaps more moderators because when you see it
The section clearly says:

Quote:

Teen Life (5 Viewing)
Talk about being a teenager, everything from crushes to bullies. Only post what you are comfortable with posting, and please don't post any sexual content

But the section is getting full with threads with little to no real content that are just complete jokes based around sexual content. I think the section is really being misused as it was originally made to talk about problems faced in a teenagers life and for advice on problems such as self harm and drug abuse. But with threads such as how big is your penis? touching your tool? Burnt my balls. I mean come on are there no moderators in this section? Anyone can see this section is being misused.

I can see where you are coming from, but most of them are from immature members trying to be funny and completely failing at doing so.

And, if people were to make threads about drug abuse and self harm, they'd only get abuse back because people wouldn't believe them and say they were emo or something because they don't think that they are real problems people face.

I agree, it is getting out of hand... :S too many pointless threads getting made with containing rude posts.

Im saying it used to be used for help. Just because the post are made by immature forum members doesnt mean they should remain there, I'm saying forum moderators should actually remove them. People did make threads on drug abuse and self harm, I'm not saying they need to but im saying that it should be used for help and advice on topics such as bullying as it was originally created for.

I think this backs up the case for the "mature" forum that was discussed in a thread last week. If you wanted to talk about issues related to "Teen Life" you'd probably get a better answer from a "mature" forum than that one.

,Jess,

I know, like every thread is about penis size or what you can do with your penis. It's like greatttt.

It's difficult though, because some threads are serious and then people make duplicates basically takling the mick.. but like I can't give an infraction for pointless posting so like I can only close the threads, there are way too many being made though, stupid threads I mean

I think it is full of perverts, perverts who know that children come onto this forum.

An 11 year old for instance, comes on the forum, looks about and her innocent mind finds a thread called

"HOW DO I MASTER BATE??",
"MY PENIS IS 3 INCH, IS THIS BIG OR SMALL?" ,
"I THINK I HAVE A SEX TRANSMITTED DISEASE" ,
"I USED A ***** FOR THE FIRST TIME" ,
"IS **** GOOD?"
"I MASTER BATE TOO MUCH"

I mean seriously... It's disgusting. It's perverted. If these prats want to talk about there penis then they should go to a health forum not a bloody children community!!!!!!

I agree, there are little weirdo's posting about there penis size and other weird things like that.
And yet nothing seems to be done about it, the threads are there for weeks.

It need's more moderators or something, I like posting in there as I don't play Habbo so the majority of the forums for me I do not post in, yet when i go to post its full of stupid immature threads.

tbh yeh i agree unless it is a serious thread but even then they should go on that teenhealth.org thingy. I think it should have more mods even though Nvrspk4 does a bloody good job as you see in my sig

The forum needs to get stricter, there are complete idiots on here making stupid threads daily, yet all they get is a infraction or a caution! Whats all that about?
Just ban them, they are a waste of space.

i agree. but if you think your 11" penis is small, you might think the world is not worth living and self harm.

I know I am sick of seeing a brialliant forum which can be so helpful ultimately ruined and brought down by certain individuals who are constantly making pointless, rude and often completely out of order threads and getting away with it.

Agreed. And i have PM'ed a few people with my opinion and what I think should be done.
I also am now reporting every bad thread/post i see, i have reported 4 in about 2 minutes with the reporting post messgae saying "BLOODY SORT THESE POSTS OUT! its ridiculous!!!" - to try and get there attention..

So lets see if i get banned for harrasment or the threads get sorted.

If you are like me and think something needs to be done about it then report every bad thread you see :)

Trust me - I have been because it is simply getting beyond a joke.

Those who actually require some form of guidance and help from others on here come and find any time they make a post they are either being ridiculed or the forum is bombarded with completely idiotic, upsetting and/or sickening threads which prevent theres from receiving the true light and reception it would otherwise.

It really is about time some action was taken against these people - otherwise a negative attitude may be taken in response from Habbox users and maybe those actual dedicated members will stop posting and helping in such, normally, useful forums. :rolleyes:

Everyone i seem to speak to feels the same.
Well i await a reply to a PM and then lets see what happens. Hopefully something will get sorted.

I am just gonna cause the mods a lot of report posts until something happens :)

Well thats what the buttons there for. I presumed the 100 report posts I had done this week would maybe have some sort of impact, but you obviously need to go right to the top to try and get something done in this place...

This is a huge problem for teen section mods, if we delete/lock any of the threads we feel are innapropriate, then we may seriously offend someone that was being 100% serious and they may even lose theyre trust in posting anything anymore.

Okay i understand that, but threads such as "how long is an average vagina?"
"how often do you master-bate" "how big is your penis" "i have a big penis" should be locked and removed.
Especially when they are being made by people such as Chadwick and that other person, you just know they are not genuine posts.

It's as though now the moderators are scared of the members, not the members are scared of the moderators.

If they have a problem with you locking there thread then tell them to go to ---MAD---, and he should defend your decision as long as it is not completely wrong.

You shouldn't have to cower and wonder whether or not the person who creates the thread is going to be offended every time. Heck they don't do it in any other section! There is a clear line between something which is serious and not. If someone creates a thread which is about something that could be considered a real teenage problem (worried about their bodily really, crushes etc.) then fair enough, but like Jack said when it is clearly disgusting and irrellevant threads from little boys it shouldn't be accepted.

The big bold warning that says nothing of a sexual nature should be posted is basically forgotten completely.

Also Jack - this wouldn't have happened back in our day ;) Those certain idiots would have been long gone!

We are not critising you personally, if anything the moderation on a whole.
Fair enough you are new and learning, but don't let some of the idiot members over power you. If they don't like your actions then tell them to talk to MAD or someone.

Do what you think is right, not what those idiots think is right.
