MATURE CHAT

I personally am getting tired of "controversial" subjects booted out of Chat A/B because some people find them unsettling.



I am suggesting a Controversial chat so that we can talk about more "adult" themes without getting shushed. "Adult themes" does not mean sexual content [as that's kinda best hidden in the adult section of the forum] but things like taxidermy, roadkill, outdoor cats, unfixed animals, etc etc are all things that are NOT 18+/ADULT but keep getting shushed in Chat when nobody is getting out of control just because the younger players don't like talking about it. I can see it having the same type of rules as Chat A/B with no swearing and if it turns into an argument, it can be sent to the debate board.. but I just hate not being able to talk about things like the above because there are children around.



If someone doesn't like talking about gore or hunting, they are 100% free to go back to Chat A or B and leave the rest of us to talk about this kind of thing maturely.



Support? Why or why not?

Yes,yes,yes! I am also tired of the tight leash ala has on chat. I do understand the resoning behind the topics that are not to be talked about in chat (Taxidermy and such) being such. But this would solve the problems.

If this is really a problem one could conceivably make an IRC chat room offsite and direct people, who would like to talk about things that have been asked to be taken off Ala's chat room, there.

Ahhh that is a perfect way to put it, Ava.<br /> Walking on eggshells.

Support. I have largely stopped logging onto Alacrity because having to walk on eggshells to avoid making anyone 'uncomfortable' deeply upsets me. I can't count the number of times I've read along with a conversation that really interested me, only to have a mod step in and shut it down on the grounds that it might offend some delicate soul who happens by. Having a chat where people are allowed to discuss more sensitive topics would be fantastic.

Oh. I meant forums lol. It's good especially for those who want freedom.

Well Nafia, I didn't really mean nobody under 18 could enter, I was just trying to stress the point that mature subjects would be discussed there

Support! I can't go to 18+ chat because I'm not 18 but it is still fun!
