I posted this in another thread about the same topic that Im about to start a rant on now:

Okay that's it. WHAT THE FRELL IS HAPPENING TO SCIFORUMS!? In the last week or two we've had such threads as "Favorite Position" and "Homosexual Survey" and now we get a thread entitled "Big Penis".

I for one would like some uh, ya know. Restrictions. Most of these threads... let me rephrase that. ALL of these threads are in the free thoughts forum. Im all for the free thoughts forums, its where I do a great deal of posting. But I find that these new threads make sciforums look like a sleazy version of a "Id like to get to know about your sex life site".

These threads are highly inappropriate. What ever happened to my nice clean sciforums?

I contribute this to most of the new members that we seem to be getting everyday. Members like MeatMissle... haha yeah funny, name yourself after a human body part. The point to this post is that sciforums is quickly becoming a sex site. This site is about Science and Scifi and stuff like that. Not about how big your penis is. Im all for fun and comedy but this is far beyond anything that I signed up for. Im not leaving sciforums Im just complaining.

Now most of you will probably mention the fact that I started a thread called "New Girl (No not a new member)". That thread was about dating, not penis size or your favorite postion.

On another note most of you dont know that by coming to sciforums now while Im at school, or work, can get me in trouble because of threads like the ones mentioned above? Its the only free place that I can go and post anymore without having to worry that my teacher/boss will get mad at me. And that is quickly changing.

so what are you wearing right now, young man?

;)

This is why I think sciforums needs a "Sexual Politics" forum. You could throw any random sex-related threads, abortion, etc., into it.

It would make it easy for the moderators to keep the forums "topic related", without deleting the threads.

Though I recently was opposed to a "Sex" forum, I now think there might be a place for it, if only to clean up the other forums.

I like the idea of a sex politics area as well, that way those of us who didn't want to bombarded with these threads didn't have to see them, and those of us who do know just where to find em! Great idea Static!

I AGREE WHOLEHEARTEDLY WITH THE THREAD OF THIS THREAD:D
I as you will all know have contributed to most of the raunchier threads in what I hope is a light hearted fasion, sometimes I've had to shout people down a little because I thought that their lack of knowledge (oh damn it ignorance) was letting them down.

For the reasons stated by CC relating to school, this is a perfect idea to ensure our younger members don't get hauled over the coals for joining in here.

They may even learn a thing or two!

Also as a person who has worked in sexual health for 10 years. Has seen most of it and probably done it too I'd like to be considered for the post of moderator should this go ahead.

It shouldn't be a 'fuck me baby' site either. Gods know there's enough of them about online.

Waddaya say Dave? Let's do it!!

I'm just pasting what I responded to in the "big weenie" site:



"I just want to say that when I discovered this site I was totally elated..an arena with a lot of intelligent people plus valuable info. Something rare on the internet. Most sites are dedicated to selling/buying sex, making money and just plain ole' useless crap.

I can understand Counsler's dilemma though and I can understand how sometimes threads like these can continue indefinitely because they're humorous at times and address a topic which started about the time when Cousin Neantherdal sat by the fire contemplating his "weapon" or lack of. [Do men fixate about this in other galaxies?]

I guess the trick is to stay within the boundaries of acceptabilty according to Sciforums standards when posting."

Well, just for the record, I haven't said that much sexually in my conversations with pumpkins. I've really just been messing around. If it's really buggin yas then we can move it to p/ms.

Nothing ever bothers me personally...don't care who says what. I only posted my original message because being a "junior" member I only want to comply with the headmaster of this institution. :p :D

...Most of these threads... let me rephrase that. ALL of these threads are in the free thoughts forum.Personally, I would rename it the "Daycare Forum", ignore it and move on. But it's Porfiry's site and he is the moderator of that forum in particular and appears to have no issue. So I just ignore it and move on.

It's kind of like an AM radio station for me. Too much background noise.

Peace.

Porfiry if you want to make a sex forum go for it. Its your choice. But I think that it would lead to chaos....what I mean is that your going to get members to join just for the sex section....when I say members I mean weirdos.

Pollux you and pumpkin flirting having nothing to do with this. Its not like your talking about touching each other or somethng.... and if you are do it in a PM.

bbcboy thanks for agreeing with me and understanding my situation.

Goofyfish your probably right about it being a "daycare". But its a free thoughts forum. I would of thought that it would be more about "Hey why is cheese made from bacteria?". And not "How big is your doink?!".

Im all for free speech but the free thoughts forum is making this site dirty.

My 2¢...

Sex is as much a part of life as birth and death. There are places for most everything. That does not mean that we should BS threads such as, "How long my weiner is" or "My sex organ is a black hole" for example. There are plenty of sites out there where that is an acceptable subject.

One Site Administrator that has such comes here often enough to find a few brain waves for a breath of fresh air. He once stated that some of his members hit the reply button just to see the post count rise. (That was his method of indicating the IQ of some of his members at the site.) If and when he reads this I hope he understands that this was used as an example of where such will lead and not a reflection on his site.

What I am saying is that this will lead to a mentality drain as folks leave this site in search of something that simulates the brain. Believe it not that is a rare find in these days of mindless entertainment. Those that are left won't be much in the line of serious calibre for discussion once you leave that subject. A poor trade, IMO.

If you need the stimulation of sex, get the real thing. Talking about it here will not relieve the hormone pressure. It will just gather more of like-minded, flustrated, and on-edge members. I will give no advice on how to go about that.

While I am open minded on a lot of things, I fail to see where giving a forum to just sex will be a help but that is my opinion. I think that in the end what will result will be a lot of rude, unintellegent discussion on next to nothing but snide comments.

Wet1, Ive been waiting for you to show up.

Static76:

Bad idea. I can accept a abortion thread. One about your penis size is out of the question.

Porfiry:
Though I recently was opposed to a "Sex" forum, I now think there might be a place for it, if only to clean up the other forums.

As soon as you create that Porfiry sciforums would go down that hill and would not be able to come back. The best example that I can think of is what happend recently in Nevada. The reason why people didnt want Pot legalized is because it would cause total chaos. Drugs would be all over the US, a border patrol type situation would of been required to keep the drugs in Nevada. More trouble then its worth. Needless to say, if you created a Sex Forum the same thing would happen. People would join just to talk about sex, not science, SEX.

bbcboy:

Im not young, Im in college, a private college.. in other words its all indoors. I dont want a sex forum, it would decay sciforums even further.

A very poor trade. Im glad someone understands what Im trying to say. NO sex forum.

I agree with wet1 and coffeebean....if someone needs to talk about sex so badly there are about 1 trillion sites out there. Besides, the topic is repititious. I mean it's not like all of a sudden the medical profession disclosed "sex" is a cure for cancer or dimentia.

sorry Counsler....needed to add my two pennies...:p

plain, straight and simple - I do not support a sex forum.
These are sciforums! and that's why come here - and not to hear how someone is fucking someone/thing else

Maybe if the sex thread presented a scientific problem or something odd that people noticed, it'd be okay. But other than that.. :(

There are plenty of sex forums on the internet. There are relatively few good science/philosophy/politics/religion forums. This is one of the few.

If you want to talk sex, I say go to a sex forum. If you want to talk sex with somebody here, send a personal message, get ICQ or something.

I don't want to read this rubbish.

I agree completely with Mr. Coffee.

Take care :cool:

"Though I recently was opposed to a "Sex" forum, I now think there might be a place for it, if only to clean up the other forums."

Haven't the moderators the ability to delete inappropriate topics or posts?

If I get the jist of the anti-sex forumists then I whole heartedly agree. This is a science related forum not a sex forum. Of course, we might get into a sticky area if we start limiting speech.

Not at all. There is no free speech protection on a privately-hosted forum.
Quite a few of the posts in the Free Speech forum violate the agreement
that each of us "signed" when we joined this board.

"Dave's the mod in Free Thoughts... if he devoted his entire day I don't believe he could keep up with it."

True. But wouldn't co-moderators or multiple moderators, such as I've seen on other 'high traffic' boards, address that problem?

Take care :cool:

Surely would seem reasonable. I only have "rights" in the WE&P forum, I'm not sure about all the other moderators. Additionally, it might be that the TOS agreement we sign upon joining is just a boilerplate. While I do not hesitate to edit severe profanity, I am quite selective about deleting a post. I think Porfiry would need to clarify what, if anything is considered "over the line".

Dave?

You guys have lots of good thoughts and comments on this.

I'm still undecided on this idea though. On one hand, it would keep sex-related threads out of the science, free thoughts, and politics forums. It might also make it easier to moderate these kinds of threads.

On the other hand, I think many of you may be right, and a sex forum could get out of hand if it wasn't moderated correctly....

Golly... I wish I could be so decisive! :D

im with bbc

whats wrong with it???

and xev is eternally in his debt for telling us how to deep throat (and hopfully i will be soon to:P:D)

will u please look at the date on the fav possition thread

it is ages old

actully its about 3 months old cause it was just after i broke up with my ex

so its not a new thread and it was quite interesting actully

it didnt effect the other sections so who cares

hell we are all here to eat, sleep, fuck and then die

why is sex so taboo?

foods not

if u dont like it dont respond
dont even read it
and report it to dave (seeing as he is mod of free thoughts)

but stop complaining cause it didnt go down hill in the last 3 months so why would it now?

actully i quite like the idear of being able to ask bbcboy questions because he is the expert

I'm still undecided on this idea though. On one hand, it would keep sex-related threads out of the science, free thoughts, and politics forums. It might also make it easier to moderate these kinds of threads.

No. Your wrong. It would make it harder. This is a SCIENCE forum. Not a sex forum.

why is sex so taboo?

Sex is not taboo. Sex on scifourms is. This site is about science, not penis size.

it didnt effect the other sections so who cares

It hasnt yet Asguard. The point is that thats not what the free thoughts forum is about, and thats not what sciforums is about. At least the site description that I read said that. This is about science, not your penis size/sexual prefernece. Just give it a month after we create a sex forum, it'll spill over into everything. And you know it will, it happens, thats why I left my stupid ezboard community.

Yes very out of hand. We would be attracting the wrong kind of people. What we want is smart people who are into science, not perverts who want to talk about penis size.

If yall think it limits the basic freedoms to post whatever you want to post, then so be it. But I would just like to point out that this is SCIforums, its about science.

do u concider xev and i smart or "into science"?

what about bbcboy?

cause we seriously DID have a conversation with him about how to deep throat

u do realise u can be both perveted and intelegent and i would like to think i am both

u do realise u can be both perveted and intelegent and i would like to think i am both

Ok ok. I do not want to turn this into a slagging match (but I cannot resist)...

That quote above to me just doesn't make sence.

I associate short hand (u, little i's etc) as being a sign of lazyness, and lack of intellegence. Therefore your statement is massivley flawed in my view.

On the point of the thread....

I do not believe that sex should be a part of sciforums.

I did not join this forum to read about someones sex life or how big their penis is etc..., There are about 50 billion other crappy sites on the web with that topic.

I would like to see all refrences to sex removed from the sight a.s.a.p

I have to go bye..

what is it with prudes?

i came here for ethics stuff and if i dont want to read something i dont

quite frankly i am sick of bloody way right wing rasests but i chose to just ignore there posts rather than complaine about it

IF U DONT LIKE THE HEAT GET OUT OF THE KITCHEN!!!!!

What it seems to boil down to are participants who are too lazy to switch to another site when they want to discuss sexual matters.

Gee, what a great reason for having a sex forum.

Anyone heard of having more than one site active?

Take care :rolleyes:

PS One of the best compliments I've heard re.Sciforums was "You have to have a degree from Cornell to understand what they're talking about in the science section."

For my objections, it is not that I am against sex. As stated in the first post that I made in this thread, sex is part of life. However, my concern is the members we might attract because of the subject matter. I thought I had made that plain.

This month, my computer time has been limited due to real life concerns and activities. It happens.

I fail to see where what size your Johnson is contributes to the body of knowledge that sciforums contains as something of interest. Maybe I am wrong. What about it ladies? Is that something of interest to you? After all, you are born with what you get. A few have already made it known their feelings on the topic in this thread.

I would dare say the thread in question was contributed solely by males. (With one exception that I think is not what is claimed. Doesn't act right to be a woman. There were a few ladies that posted but it was a one post comment after which they didn't continue.) I attribute that to the tone of the thread.

Although i think Sciforums would loose its old glow that it has with Sex forums,but it would fetch loads of ads for Dave...isnt it?;)
hahahahaha...Sci forum with sexual attitude...kewl...

bye!

what is it with prudes?

What the hell does that mean?

IF U DONT LIKE THE HEAT GET OUT OF THE KITCHEN!!!!!

The problem is that heat spreads. You don't have to be in the kitchen to feel the heat of cooking.

I think you guys are probably right. At first, I thought a sexual politics forum would work like the Religion, Art& Culture, Philosophy,etc. And keep sex-related threads in one section, so they didn't clutter the other forums.

The idea was to clean up the forums, but I see now that it would only cause more problems than it would solve.

Actually I don't see the need of a sex forum either. Like CounslerCoffee says, some members are making posts while being at school. It would be a real shame for those members if they are caught while looking at Free Thoughts and the site will be closed because of the amount of sex related threads which are in there with provoking titles, as seen in the eyes of the teachers.

The name is not sciforums for nothing. (which may sound odd, brecause I am known to not post quite scientific :D), it might appear then, to outsiders, like teachers, parents and the like that sciforums is not entirely what it's supposed to be. To give information about things going on in the world nowadays. Not that there should not be info on sex, but it is not info, what is displayed here. I do not think sciforums is the place for info on sex either.

Lots of sex sites out on the i-net, for people who really want to join in such conversations.

Therefor, I am against a sex forum. It really is not interesting also, the threads which are there, to say at the least. Rather silly subjects, in my humble opinion. Even for a free thought, rather silly, I must say.

It appears to me too, that it are mostly young members, in their teens who start these threads. It says something about their hormones playing up. I suggest to those members to continue this by PM please if you really need to talk about sizes of sexual organs and the like.

Wet1 asked:

I think this subject and the interest level depends on the age/hormone levels of participants (male?) who want this forum. I personally believe that this sciforum site is not the place to validate your sexual machismo or explore your sexual urges with willing participants.

If you have genuine questions about sexuality, there are many sites that offer answers. If you want to just get your "rocks off" with explicit conversation...well, I believe that Dave's original idea for Sciforum would be trashed.

There is nothing wrong with sex. Infact it's great 24/7, but I have no interest in reading about how big your "johnson" (to quote Wet1) is, or what you did or want to do with it. Boring, boring, boring. Same goes for the females....I don't care about your "johnsonette" either. :)

What are you, gay :D

I oppose the idea of a sex-forum. Let people do it over MSN or get someone to make a Sex Board at proboards or something

What are you, gay

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

not at all..very hetero here..but that has no bearing on anything ;)

I was kidding, calm down :)

Just for the record...so am I ;)

Although i think Sciforums would loose its old glow that it has with Sex forums,but it would fetch loads of ads for Dave...isnt it?

Sex ads on sciforums.... Thats one of the things that I really hope doesnt happen. Dave I dont care how much money it would make for you (probably not a lot), if you did that id be forced to leave.

Yep. The wrong kind of people would show up on sciforums door. Posting erotic stories, posting "pics", which would eat up bandwidth.... it would spill over into other parts of the sites. There would be flame wars on all the boards. Chaos would be the only word to describe that.

so calm here that my heart rate is probably at 45.....:D ..you just don't see the smile on my face when I post the messages

There are plenty of sex forums on the internet.

:bugeye: yeah...and, how would you know??

<i>"Sex ads on sciforums.... Thats one of the things that I really hope doesnt happen. Dave I dont care how much money it would make for you (probably not a lot), if you did that id be forced to leave"</i>

Hey Couns,hows everything?anyways who said those ads will be sexual ones...they can be anything.you know any site discussing sex will be popular on the internet and people would know'bout it.
...so we will have ads ranging from Macs to Sex products and also messages for AIDS...

so,isnt that kewl?

Ive seen plenty of internet banners in my time, I think that we can all say that. One thing that I can say is those ads to increase your penis size. You know, the ones that show the HUGE ERECT PENIS. Yes I want to see that ad every time I log onto sciforums. NOT!

They just keep getting better and better.

In other words, if you are / were in a monogamous relationship and your honey started getting it on with someone else, at which point would you say that they had begun cheating on you as far as you're concerned? What are you okay with? Where do you draw the line? First they hold each other for a minute or two. Then they begin french kissing. Then they begin fondling each other through their clothing as they kiss. Then they start taking their clothing off as they continue kissing. Then they begin kissing each others neck and chest area. Then they begin masturbating each other. Then they give each other oral sex. And then they fuck.

Going into descriptions of what kind of sex you consider cheating... I dont see it. I dont understand what purpose that thread has. You can talk about what you think cheating is, Im okay with that, but when you start going into detail and polling what you think constitutes cheating (and that list includes Oral sex etc.) Im not for it.

What most people seem to be afraid of is sci falling into the depths of depravity.
You fucking nerds!!!
Have you no faith in your strength of character?
Have you no power over your own discipline?
Do you so fear your own human depravity that you will fall to the dark side.
A sex forum will clear up the boards for those who contribute to the science factors alone.
It will also give vent to the concerns of those, often long term posters, who choose to contribute to similar threads.
(You know who you are!!)
As well as those who seek knowledge around these issues.
People are dying in the world!!
How dare you turn your back on those who need this information!!
I'm reading the words of a hundred pussies who fear the dark
YOU ARE NOT ALL BRITISH!!
Remember this!

ha ha...some of you are starting to become awfully anal. (and, i don't mean bbcboy, either - you know who you are):p :rolleyes: :D

all the sex threads i have seen are basicly "look how fast i can post typing one handed."

if a sex forum is made here, maybe we should also have an "i'm on *this* drug right now, and yes i'm on it for scientific purposes only" forum.

not stating my opinion, since i dont know what i is yet, but...

if there were a sex forum, wouldn't it have limits aswell? but i think there are ineterseting topics that could be put in there. I dont think it should be all.. um.. "touchy feely".. but i think there are things that could have a place there without being xrated. but i think it would need a good mod to keep it working right. perhaps maybe a test run for 7 days or something could help.

At the same time though it kinda makes me think of ICQ and those little advertisement chicks tht come on there and act like they know you and as you are trying to rack our brain and figure out who they are the show you their "pic"... and it becomes a race for the "close" button. or clothes.. i suppose..

who knows though im not really sure where i stand..

Of course, CC is opposed to this after his major contribution to the girls pic thread.

I expected my meaningless post to get deleted. As a newbie, I didn't know how common those posts are.

But how do some of these threads go on for pages, while mine was closed within 6-9 posts?

Understood that some start out with good concerns, but there is a common theme that always seems to go astray.

Probably the only appropriate sex talk is in the Ethics forum

and in the politics forum..... since it wont be long before big brother is your pimp....telling you who what ahere when and how to have sex...

oops

i'm thinking "so"

if its a discussion about the law of a sexual act or the like why wouldnt it belong in politics?

for example, the outlaw of female circumcision in a country in africa (ethiopia i think)

dont have an immature view on things. its these people who manage to think about an "erection" when they see "direction" that make a perfectly acceptable discussion into 5th grade recess after sex ed class



edit: here you go. this is the type of thig i'm talking about

title:Female Circumcision Comes to America



http://www.theatlantic.com/unbound/flashbks/fgm/fgm.htm



how is this not a political issue?

what about a thread labeled "at what age did you lose the big V?" (its a lousy example, but its all i could think of off the top of my head). This is a topic that could be very information to people, and i would be interested in knowing. even if it were simple only a poll. and i think it would take a moderator to keep things clean, but would be an interesting subject to discuss for many reasons, without getting all "touch me baby"...
i see the pros and definately the cons.. .. and im still undecided, just thought somone should give the other side.

It would depend on the premise of your post, but even if the discussion were to center around:Knowing that federal legislation to deal with FGM is far from a certainty, a growing number of people are joining the battle to stop FGM in America.I would still see it as a legal issue, and consider it appropriate to the EM&J forum.

okay, what about the law concerning registering sex offenders?

my point is simply there could be a political issue involing sex appropriate for the politics forum

another pun in this thread?

No offense, but this thread is exactly why we don't need a sex forum.

If you want one, they exist elsewhere.

A sex thread will drag the intellect level of sciforums down lower than it currently is, if you can believe that. I remember arriving at sciforums to see the boards seemingly dominated by the writings of goofyfish, xev, wet1, orthogonal, cris and a few others. Now our board features such brilliant displays of intellect as:

And this is only a few of the ones I think would not have appeared in the old sciforums.

i agree with Tyler.

Your correct Avatar. I know who some of these individuals are.

Oh and I agree with you Tyler. JTLYK.

I'm sorry you don't see things the way I do.

I'm sorry we are different.

I'm sorry for contaminating this forum with my inane postings.

I'm sorry for all the stupidity I have exposed you to.

I'm sorry I can't take criticism, by posting this post. However, I'm truly sorry that we can't be on the same level here. I understand your thoughts, though I'm hurt you didn't feel enough compassion to alert me before things got too far.

I'm sorry.

I dont beleive that ALL of the threads you pointed out deserved to be made fun of tyler.

or maybe im just too stupid to see everything your, ..err. i mean, the right, way.

Bluesoul; true apology comes not in acknowledgement of fault, but in change for the future.

There's no need to apologise or change in any way, my friend. You're a smart one and you know it, so relax and don't worry if a few people don't appreciate you. Stay funky. ;)

First few threads I saw when I joined sciforums were about:

The 5th dimension and onward
Nature of Time
Relativity
Size of the Universe
Early Memories
Designer Babies
Human Sexuality: Static or Variable


And furthermore, I was not making fun of the threads. I was stating that they are not what, in my opinion, sciforums is at it's best. Of course, I also don't believe sciforums has been near it's potential for quite some time.

Damn, I am so busy that I missed the party. Anyways, why don't we just have a general "drivel forum" which includes but not limited to sex.

All threads there gets deleted automatically after 24 hours to conserve bandwidth.

hmmm.. perhaps someone should put a sign on the door so that we dont have this confusion again, and those of us normal people wont slip through the cracks. So that all of the rest of you and your high IQ's can have your debates on how big the universe is and the rest of us can still try to figure out where its at!!!!!:mad:

In my own opinion, I doubt my IQ is very high at all. I don't consider myself of more than slightly above average intelligence. The standard at sciforum was never about how smart the posters were, but that the threads posted were actually intellectual. That was, of course, the goal of this site at one point: to be an intellectual discussion board for people of any intelligence. So long, of course, as they are wanting and able to discuss in logical, mature ways.

LOL @ nightfall. I have no clue which universe you're at. :D

Just joking.

Edit to add: My mental capacity is quite high, but that doesn't mean I have to use it.

I still think my idea is quite good. Just Let the "drivel" forum be the sewage of sciforums. Any thing drivel like "what is your favorite position" or any more threads by Ralph Nadar about chess wiz or actually anymore threads by Ralph Nadar about anything can be moved there. It saves bandwidth and brain power.

thanks alot Joeman. but i do go nuts thinking "if im on a planet in space, then where's space?" and get that odd "im an ant" feeling...

A wise philosopher once said that "Some people talk about other people's sex lives. And some people have sex"

If I can't say "fuck" in politics, I think the idea of a forum dedicated to discussing fucking is a twee bit hypocritical. It supports two standards of behaviour....one in which we can be hormone crazed and one in which we must be logical adults.

Blue:

Your apology is accepted.

Tyler:

*Blushes at implicit praise*

I agree with you. We used to have real discussions. When I first came here, it was in response to a thread about the "neutrino gap".

My mind isn't that suited to the analytical sciences. So I stuck to ethics, general phi and religion.

We used to talk about philosophy. You, Tyler, were the one who really inspired me to get off my sorry ass and read Nietzsche. Another poster here introduced me to Foucault.

Now here is general philosophy:
http://www.sciforums.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=35

Here it was four months ago:
http://www.sciforums.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=35&daysprune=120&sortorder=&sortfield=lastpost&perpage=25&pagenumber=5

Six months ago:
http://www.sciforums.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=35&daysprune=365&sortorder=desc&sortfield=lastpost&perpage=25&pagenumber=8

A sex forum is unnecessary, redundant (as sex forums exist elsewhere), and is likely to drag the intellect level here down further.

Not only that, but we have some rather young posters here. While I'm not a prude, I don't think it's appropriate for a twelve year old researching the moon landing to end up seeing a discussion of how to give a better rim job, or worse, a endless parade of "wanna c my tits?????!!!!!"

The only argument FOR it would be the possibility that it would keep the stupid people in one place.

Edit to add: My mental capacity is quite high, but that doesn't mean I have to use it.
lol believe it or not, its pretty much the same here. I'm not as smart though :(
My mind has been on other things lately so I haven't done many "insightful" posts

Nightfall: Are you suggesting that some people here are becoming elitists?

Bluesoul: Don't apologise, you have done nothing wrong in my eyes :)


I would like to add for the record that I was part of a certain alliance, it was only if said forum was about sensible issues and moderated properly. It then clicked that the same things could be put in Human Science. Silly me :rolleyes:

But here is my official reason and I hope many will agree:

I believe it would bring down the integrity of an already fragile sciforums and many posters will take it for granted and the whole thing will eventually collapse

This is just my proof that its new members doing this, not the old ones:

http://www.sciforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=13332&perpage=5&pagenumber=1

Creating stupid threads that is.

Just a suggestion, if by some way a Sex forum does find itself onto our monitors, what if access was only granted to certain members that have proved themselves worthy??

I wouldn't go there btw, not my bag

I know of that plan, Thor
but.... worthy for what?!
worthy for discussing the best ways of how to do it anal? or the best ways of how to fuck an aligator?
:rolleyes:

although I'd be interested in the aligator case:p

i agree with Joeman, its a good idea. There has been an elite at sci ever since i have been here but it goes with the territory. When you get a group of people with higher IQs they tend to think themselves superior. It doesnt bother me, but, what does it the amount of drivel being posted on a science forum (i always thought it was). Drivel too takes up bandwidth.

There was a plan :confused:

Ok *steps back*

The alligator thing would be quite interesting actually...I'm curious...I'm gonna search google....for pictures....of cars.... suckers

That is not true. What happens is there is a group of people who think they have high IQ and superior, but there is really nothing superior about them.

Coffee, ha ha funny how your poll basically wants everyone to agree with you. No options for 'no'? Says a lot about you.

Sex is not something that can be wiped from forums, not any more than the scum on the upper inside of your toilet bowl. It's there, and it's fucking well gonna STICK there. So deal with it.

Besides, sex is one of the primary drives of humankind. We should celebrate and elevate that drive.

so many things i meant to say. very well put. :p

How does adolescent banter and soft core porn elevate the sex drive?
I had a semi-intelligent (I thought) discussion of promiscuity and social conditioning in ethics:
http://www.sciforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=11080

Others have discussed incest and homosexuality in ethics. Hell, I've deconstructed porn shops in General Phi.

I don't see why we'd need a seperate forum for it. If you want to discuss "whether those cherry flavoured condoms are tastier than the chocalate flavoured condoms" or "what's the best way to treat rope burns" (aloe vera and antibiotic cream, cotton gauze that can breathe), put it in free thoughts or find someplace that it would fit.

Not only that, but am I the only person who's been inside a chat room? C'mon. The last thing we need is more idiots.

Just a suggestion, if by some way a Sex forum does find itself onto our monitors, what if access was only granted to certain members that have proved themselves worthy??

Who the fuck would bother, then? I hate elites. 99 times out of 99 they aren't elite at all.

It never ceases to amaze me at how others see one. Lordly, never considered myself as a too bright a candle on the cake. Just a joe that has been around the block a time or two.

Now myself, I enjoy seeing the ladies on the forums. Why? Because they have totally different views on life and subjects from us guys. That includes the regulars such as Xev, nightfall, strgrl, Bansee and on and on. (Sorry if I misspelled anyone's netname.) But guys, face it, most of the ladies will not care for the crude and rude. (And no I am not singling anyone out or pointing fingers.) Nor am I saying the ladies are saints or will not get down to the same level. But the majority have at one time or another made it clear where to stop. I for one do not want to lose a single one of them to some yoyo that doesn't know when to quit or where to draw the line. We have indeed seen a few of those out there.

I addressed some concerns to the movement, so to say and can not support such without those concerns being met. I will not disclose the nature or the people involved but my intentions are for what is best for sciforums. Without solutions to those problems I can not in good faith support such a topic as a forum theme.

I have long stated that we can not ignore sex and that it will creep into our topics and thoughts as it plays such a large part in our lives both in day to day and in the course of life itself. But that is not an excuse to see just how down and dirty one can be. I think we have all seen examples of where that leads, mainly in Free Thoughts. Understand, I am no prude. I am a father. That should say something by itself. My daughter long ago grew up, got married and had children of her own. Need I say more?

That is not true. What happens is there is a group of people who think they have high IQ and superior, but there is really nothing superior about them.
This is also what i felt but i didnt like to put it as bluntly as that. :)
There are plenty other forums out there that support sex forums, I suggest they vacate this board and go to these sites.

screw it! do what you want profiry- its your board and theres no way to satisfy everyone, especially on an issue such as this where someone will always be trying to push the limit.

You're a little new around here, On Radioactive Waves, but there have been
a few in times past who have pushed the limits ... But with some intelligence
and without being juvenile potty mouths.
:cool:

oh, for fucks sake!

temper, temper. :)

Zero:
Coffee, ha ha funny how your poll basically wants everyone to agree with you. No options for 'no'? Says a lot about you.

Zero what does it say about me? I think that it says that I would rather have the people who are against this topic post their opinions instead of voting on a poll.

Coffee: then why'd you throw in a poll?


Captain Crunch: it was just a joke! lighten up! (for chuck's sake!)

Coffee: then why'd you throw in a poll?

To make people laugh. Duh!

Then why didnt ya throw in a picture of yo mamma? OUCH! okay, just kidding. No offense.

ORW, you rarely have anything interesting to say. Oh, just kidding. dont take offence. :rolleyes:

That's not true. I think ORW has posted some interesting inputs in the Physics & Maths section.

like it said, ouch, only kidding.

Then why didnt ya throw in a picture of yo mamma? OUCH! okay, just kidding. No offense

When you post things trying to insult other posters then back it up with sarcastic comments doesnt win over good opinions of yourself. arseedrain, you have to agree with me? no?
Its not what i consider a joke okay, am i allowed to voice my opinion? :D

Well, you did type "arse". Aren't you also insulting me?

As for your question, yes I agree that you shouldn't insult other posters just for the sake of insulting. And yes, you're certainly allowed to voice your opinion.

It was a typo. It happens.

Typo? Well if you say so...

Not funny? Well, on second thought, I have to admit it was in rather bad taste. That's why I edited my post.

It was a typo.
If you read my other posts you will realise im not the sort of person to make a fool of people deliberatly. What would i gain from deliberatly spelling your name wrong? I read it as arsedrain, it looks pretty much like it so i put it down as that.

aseedrain- thanks for the back-up.

captain crunch- the "yo mamma" joke was about the most generic joke I can think of, and just to make it obvious it was not directed at anyone, I stated I was only joking. If you cant see that then well.... go find some other posts to bash me. Wait, you already did.

oh no, i am wrong, what ever am i going to do?

That was sarcasm by the way and wasnt directed at anybody.

what a mature way of showing it too!

and 'your mum' jokes are any more mature? i think not.

my appologies, coffee. maybe your mother just died or somthing. I did not mean for you to get butt-hurt about it.



"Learn to laugh at yourself, and others will luagh with you"

the "mature" thing was a retort to a comment he made to me in another thread. Yes, i know, that was also "mature"


edit:

and damn, do you need to learn how to take a joke? The whole basis of the joke was for you to become upset and say "I can't believe you took it there" or laugh along with me. Lighten up you sourpuss.

http://www.clicksmilie.de/sammlung/spezial/jasons_smilie/argue.gif http://www.clicksmilie.de/sammlung/spezial/jasons_smilie/rifle.gif

Wait, the type of sex forums I had in mind was some human sexuality/psychology and social events related type intelligent place.

OK, everyone kick me for even trying to think that everyone was mature enough here for it.

Hi peeps me again Don of the shagfest mafia :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
There are obviously two camps here (and I use the term loosley!!) but the main point is that you're all right.

A new forum isn't the issue because that will either happen or not and ultimatley it's down to Dave to decide agreed?

Whether or not people visit there and exchange proper adult views as well as the occasional element of jokeyness (we're not mormons for gods sake!!) :D :D is again up to them.
The mod would need to be vigilant and strict, but xev'z right the only real reason for having this forum would be to leave the others open to more philosophical debate or political debate or fre...anyway you get the idea!

So all of you who miss the old ways of the forums maybe should be in favour.
All of you already in favour keep it up (as it were) and all of you on the fence...
No one ever got laid on a fence. So climb down, knock boots and then you'll have a much clearer picture of what the issue is.

There will be problems to do with posters ages etc but the younger posters will give them selves away if they're too young and if they don't then maybe they're not too young anyhow.
I treat many 13 year olds for sexually transmitted stuff and they've been around the farm for some time.

Maybe a little properly thought out educational site might just help some young people make the right choices in life and you guys could be a part of that. Think about it!

"The mod would need to be vigilant and strict, but xev'z right the only real reason for having this forum would be to leave the others open to more philosophical debate or political debate or fre...anyway you get the idea!"

Highly disagree. Most of our less than serious members here started out in the Free Thoughts forum (obviously a haven for lack of intellect) and have squirmed their way into the philosophical boards unfortunatly enough. The same, I believe, would happen with sex.

im sorry for trying to stick up for someone that obviously doesnt appreciate it.

Yes, you would get chimps finding the sex forums and there the quality of posts would deteriorate, they would then spill over into every other forum reducing the quality of the whole site. Just now its only the free thoughts forum that is lacking thought.

BBC:
Tyler beat me to it, a sex forum would attract the less serious posters, just as free thoughts did and does.

If they stayed there, it would be fine. But they also slip into the other forums and make a mess.

Now, I do a quick google for sex forums:
http://www.google.com/search?q=sex+forums&sourceid=opera&num=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

Do we really need another?

Am I the only person here who's ever seen an AOL chatroom?

A sex forum is unnecessary and will likely drag in stupid people.

If you want to talk philosophy of sex, there's general phi.
If you want to talk biology, there's the human science forum.
If you want to get into adolescent "wanna c my tits?", there's AOL.
If you want to cyber-fuck other members, there's AIM, Yahoo, MSN, ICQ......

What else do you need?

Captain, it isn't just free thoughts. It's general philosophy, religion and ethics too.

I dont use the religion forums but have heard and seen from such characters that do. It slipped my mind as i dont frequent it all that often.

However i do use Ethics and philosophy and didnt notice! i'll keep my eyes peeled. ;)

Hmm...Xev seems to be omni-knowledgeable on such things. *elbows Xev*:bugeye: I never noticed!! All the stupidity I noticed was from whatmuscles, and at least he doesn't resort to sexual references.

Okay I wasn't going to mention this but I think that this is another problem. Should members be able to create threads about other members? I know people have problems with other people but is this really acceptable?

Counsler, this guy is quite a menace. Sure he gives us something to do, but whats the point in continuing a fight that is more or less won and the other "side" is too arrogant to see it.
Anyway, I'm not bothering with him anymore, he seems to be ignoring me

My 2 cents,

Sorry CC, I know you've moved on to another question but I've only dropped in to see if the subject matter in free thoughts has improved, and found that I'm not the only one with this view.

Xev is the only one who mentioned the word "Porn" which is what most of the stuff relating to sex is heading towards.

Sex can be discussed in a mature fashion, it's the gutter language I'm not interested in reading. I agree with Banshee too, I think it's originating from the younger members who can't control their hormones.

The decision will ultimately be Dave's and I don't envy him this job because no matter what he decides, not everyone will be happy.

My own view is that I was happy when I first joined the forums and the topics were intelligent and informative. I don't think the people here think of themselves as superior, just people who've outgrown the urge to discuss sex all day like when they were teenagers. I'm happy to see we've had few more members join of mature age lately.

Thanks CC for raising the topic.
Cheers
Teri

If you start controlling what kind of threads can be posted (about other members or otherwise) doesnt it sort of restrict what can be dicussed? If a member is causing havoc like whatsupyall and the poll thread u listed above, it lets the member know what others think of their conduct. Hell even mods create threads about other members like the 'Joeman tantrum thread' created by Goofyfish (i believe) that was a sticky in politics thats since been deleted.

Should we be allowed? That is decided by, at least in religion, Oxygen who will delete or lock posts that are inappropriate.

And is it pure coincidence that the person is question is whatsmuscles for all three?

Actually Zero I found 4 threads about him. One of which I didnt link.

Yeah see the problem is that it cant be discussed in a mature fashion. Someone will always start a thread about a big penis or something else... Its just not possible. And if it is a mature thread then chances are its going to break down into talk about a penis or something and people will be making jokes, not discussing serious issues. I just dont see a point to it.

Actually CC, I was refering to sex issues rather than the sex act itself when I wrote that it could be discussed in a mature fashion. However, I believe that your view about it degenerating into porn or gutter talk, is most likely right. It really depends on the people doing the discussing, and when there's so many different viewpoints things are bound to go downhill. It's just human nature.

As for threads about any particular person, I really see that as a job for the moderator to pursue. We do have free speech, but there are people are just plain mean. There's no need for it. If someone is a problem to the rest of the forums then Dave has the right to disallow access.

Cheers
Teri

Actually Dave has the right to do pretty much anything he chooses with Scifourums, dosn't he?

He does

All hail dave!!!!

I second that notion.

Avatar, sex IS a science. face it.
It's one of our basic necessities. We evaulate this way, getting mature and understand (personally and interpersonally) our environment according to its (even sexual) reaction.
Many scientists, such as biologists, study this subject all the time and get obssesed with it (beauty, garment and so on).

I'm just saying that we need to know the red line, of course.
However, it's a science, and SCIforums should discuss about this subject too.

I meant to "social-sex", let's call it that way.
Society can (and should) be analyzed and discussed through the eyes of Science.
Don't forget what made the science come true- Society.

Human Science- yeah, we can talk about the more "sexual stuff"
in that category. I AGREE.

This just shows that if you use the report button then it will get the attention it deserves.

Sex is something to experience, not to discuss,.....
so who needs a sex-forum anyhow? just get an AI and chat-bot, learn it to talk dirty to you and off you go,....


Greetz fukushi

There should definetly be a forum here about sex. Also, we should be allowed to post annonoumously in it.

Oh Gawd... I thought that this thread was dead.

i dont think posting anonymously is such a good idea. becuase that would give everyone the freedom to act like complete morons, and have no one else know who they are (if they're good at it).. and it would just bring in too much carelessness.. i still think we could use a sex forum.. but not one like that..

Hey, I don't want to give out my fetishes, sexual fantasies, ect and then have them there for just anyone to see under my name! I'd love to explain them, but if I have to do it under my name it would be very embarrassing if anyone ever found out my true idenity (which can be done if done right) and then linked them to my sexual info. It should be ananomous.

awww.. come on... we're all freinds here..... ;)

Not really, and definetly not that closely. And what if someone from *real life* came here and found out that I like... well, you know.

We have moderators to keep things from getting out of control, although we would need more for a sex forum.

This is a waste of time. We never will have a sex are. But why not.

i think it really deserves a test run. and id love to mod for it. but i agree that it will probably never be given chance. :(

i again offer my board for this

it already HAS a sex section, all you have to do is ask for the password

It's really not that active though. Has anyone even replied in the last week?

well thats not MY fault

if people join and post maybe it will kickstart it

Fine, I'll join as Scottster, but I won't promise you that I will donate any serious content to your board.

that would be the problem

i have 56 members and HOW many have posted?

but anyway if you guys WANT a sex section dave wont put one in

i said you can use the one on my board

its your choice

There are so few things in life that we really all have in common... hehe... they are fundamental and sex is one of them. I think it a bit prudish to say "don't talk about sex here". There are a lot of important issues in life (and the discussion thereof) that revolve around sex in one way or another. Sure, it's primal... but isn't the primal aspect of our mind the perch on which the intellect is so precariously balanced? If you are making a conscious decision to disregard that which is primal... do not start a sex forum... if you do not think it proper to make such a division, start one and moderate it and all others with extreme predjudice. Er, I meant "with a vengence." *giggle*

no offense asguard, but... your site is too damn colorful... and.. im afraid of change. can't leave here. lol. dont know why.. just can't do it. lol. :)

and who knows.. maybe if i win the lottery and pay him enough he just might give it a chance. ;)

i can change the color for u baby:p

-Sex is good
-Sex is fantastic
-and my ... is bombastic!

so much for trying to persuade with maturity.
there goes our shot at a sex forum.

asguard. please dont call me baby.

Going against my better judgement, I think I'll ask the question:

Does mental penis size qualify as a sex related topic?:D

Does mental penis size qualify as a sex related topic? i dont even know wtf it is... lmao. :eek: :D

From behind a perfectly laid shrubbery, William bounds onto the scene wearing nothing less than a fig leaf.

"NI!"

:m:

here's a crazy notion: Don't read it.

i dont think it is so much reading the threads and posts in the sex forum that bothers some of the members, but the people that having such a forum might attract.

but wait! I've got an idea. what if there was a delay in access to the forum?
in other words.. after you have 50 posts it appears, or after you've been here 14 days or something to that effect. without notification that it is here beofre that. ( i dont know if that is possible, or easy for that matter). BUT it would eliminate those who are just looking for a sex chat, and usually by 50 posts, i think we'd know if this person would be disruptive or not. also, by not notifying them that this forum will appear, it would prevent a sudden flood of posts by one user just to get into that forum. as i said, i dont know how possible or easy it would be porfiry, but.. its just a thought.

here's a crazy notion: Don't read it.

Neb. This is a good point, but it doesn't work that way. You see, some of us post from school, on a college campus, or from work. Everything that I view/type goes through a screener. If I type out SEX SEX SEX SEX **** *****! Then Im going to get a note from the guys in charge (My professors/office people) saying that Ive been doing to much surfing, and viewing to many topics based around sex. Im okay with certain topics. Just not Big Penis threads, and other types like that.

so don't go into the sex section.

im pretty sure ive never been in the Physics & Math section. its not hard to do.

Im okay with certain topics. Just not Big Penis threads, and other types like that. -laughs- i was thinkin a little more like lykan, a little less like bbcboy.
curiosity over crudity .. (eh.. that wasn't meant to be offensive)...
a good thread for such a section could be.

sex before marriage, pros and cons.

and it would give a place for all of those more risque threads, and might help to keep the rest of sciforums more minor-friendly since there will be a PLACE to put those threads in the first place, and then be edited there.. instead of clogging up free thoughts with them.

Heres an idea... If a "sex forum" was to be created, don't call it a "sex forum", otherwise you would probably see people that have lived their lives in the Adult chatrooms flaunting their "warez" there.

If your asking Porfiry to create a forum, I would guess that the topic should be so controversial.

Perhaps under the "Human Sciences" heading a "Freudian" board.

Then you could talk perhaps along the lines of Psychological issues that involve discussion of sex.

^you missed the point.

by a mile.

Hey Stryder: maby all they want to do on that forum is 'dating'?
and to say that they have the largest ... ? :p

Mine is bigger, better, stronger and that kind of shit?

What else is there to discribe or to discuss about sex, if it isn't psychological related?

Well: mine is 17cm-18cm long and 3.5cm-4cm thick, eeh,...apart from that, I love all stances,.....(did them all) andeeeeeeehhhmmm
eheeem,......well, that's it,...I don't know what else to say trough writing,....


I'm a poet,...and a romanticus,...but that's part of tender feelings and psychological blabla,...so? is that sex? no I don't think so either,....

gosh,...what is the meaning of all this? !?uh? Someone's fetish is writing about sex? or what?

okay: And now I put my .... in your mouth,...and you swollow my ....

you mumble :"Mljbllmbmjbmlkbmmlkbbb"

:) :p

^you bring up a good point

is it possible to ban someone from only one forum?

I dont think so NightFall, ask Porfiry. My idea was something like a People & Relationship's forum. Some sex stuff could go on there, but nothing extreme.

for what it's worth: I think that People & Relationship's is already more then covered in various threads on this forum,...

But you could merge all these threads that go over feelings and romatics yes,.....is that a good Idear? :confused: I don't know.

Mostly people post that in the free toughts section, but it depends on wich kind of aproach you want to take on People & Relationship's ofcourse.

Am I making sense to you guys?:cool:

is that a good Idear? i understand that some people have a speech impediment or an accent that makes you pronounce the word "idea" odd.. but did that accent travel to your fingers?

i bring this up because your not the only one ive seen do this.. and it just blows my mind. :confused: :bugeye:

NifghtFall, often the words I type come out wrong. I say: ya'll, ain't, workin, yellin, partyin, just everthing with an "in". Its my natural accent, and thats how things are spelled sometimes around here... In school at least. If you want to sound like a kentuckian then just slur your speech and press your words together and talk fast. Thats us. Also, if you can tell me what "Geet" is, then I'll... Uh.. Be impressed. :)

Aww... come and visit the Physics section, Nightfall. You never know - you might like it! :)

i know im not the brightest crayon in the box, so id rather not clutter up your itelligent threads with my one-liner posts. anyway, its nice to have limits. but thanks. :)

some of us have better things to do than spend our day wading threw desiding if this is bad or good
