16 years and over forum.

Crap idea. Would not work.

I think it's unfair, I'm fourteen and I consider myself as mature - tbh it's a silly idea, just ignore the ignorant children..

Same, but I don't need to go into a 16+ forum really to read about peoples 10" ****, mature I think not, ironic.

Myself along with other members do desire a forum where none of this childish behavior occurs. Though if it were based on maturity and not age, I think it would work out.

That's a poor attitude. Could you rephrase what you've said along with the reason you believe it wont work?

Yeh but then if theres 14/15s in the forum that completely destroys the point in 16+ forum? :S

Hmm.. It can be called Mature forum. Then described as the forum for users around the age of 16 that have a mature attitude. Syrup Monkey, you are right in one aspect, that it would be unfair to allow 16 year olds and over and ignore the the users younger than 16. Though if it were a mature forum based on maturity than that would solve that problem. Then even people who are 16 that aren't mature wouldn't be allowed. So it would work even better in one aspect.

Mature forum, i like that

As you have been saying and others asking how it could be judged, it's quite easy to determine how mature some peolple are by looking at their infractions, what they are for and the way and what they post on the forum. So yes it could be done, allthough the age would be an impossible thing.

if its mature forum then people will just get annoyed as your calling then immature :S

At the end of the day this forum is based around Habbo and is aimed at a teenage audience and I think you'd fine the majority of the forum is under the age of 16 however people under 16 would try to gain access to the "16+" forum anyway, it would cause issues and fights which would be hard to control if the forum had no set rules. Also people would abuse their opportunity's in the forum and just ruin it for the people who really wanted to use it correctly. There is no real reason to have a forum with no rules introduced as it just encourages people to be abusive and break other rules for the sake of breaking them. People can express their opinions and enjoy the forum without having to swear or be rude in anyway. Also people would be annoyed if they were over 16 but denied access and also people would be angry with people under 16 been allowed access and it's too difficult to moderate who would be old enough to view the forum or not. Sadly, although in theory this is a good idea it's too difficult to moderate and to put into practise especially on such a large forum.

I meant the name was funny, not it should be that

I think the idea could actually work with some thought going into and and i would be willing to run with it

dont call it 16+ then. call it the mature forum as said.


I'm all for it, im 13. I find myself mature but others might not. I don't know but it would be good to escape from the real... annoyances of some of the people on this forum.

I understand what you are saying but who can be the judge of who is mature and who is not I'm sure there are some people who are 17 - 20 who are still immature in some aspects but others at 13 - 15 who are mature and it's just not easy to judge. Maturity to one person can be immaturity to another it just isn't possible to say if someone is immature or not and also telling someone they cannot access a forum because they are immature could make them feel upset and feel bad about themselves. Even though it would be great to have this personally I think there isn't a way to judge who can and who cannot access the forum. Any bets if this went ahead there would be a good number of what you'd feel were "immature" people in the forum and lots of people would complain and thus sparking arguments.
