plus side is banned trolls we can talk about with immunity-BOB comes to mind
 
OK, i dunno why it has been done and i guess there must be a very good reason - but i still say it's the reason onelaughhadit and the spin-offs never took off! I don't log in when i'm at work coz they'll fire me but i sometimes go on in me lunch hour just to check whether anything has been updated on a fred i've been reading - i guess i won't be able to do that any more!

Its a shame that we can no longer advertise the fact we are a fun place to be as most of the fun happens in what is now the private members only area so i suspoect we will get less members joining (and consequently less posts, which will be less revenue and a less valuable site) but if you had to do it i guess you had to do it!

As i said, at least BoB will find it harder to log on as an alias and post people's private info all over the place though!
 
Maybe the government said clean up or shut it down. did fanny and his porn picture's do it?
they were pretty racy for a child doing a school paper in auto shop and looked up Land rover and saw those post's . good idea to restrict access to non members, just so things can stay the same.
 
don't think it's any big deal myself, like roy sez, he had a very very good reason for doing it.

the majority of peeps don't search/find us because they want somewhere to have a chat and a laugh, it's usually born out of some land rover issue one way or another. this would lead them to the rest of the forum, then if they want to post their problem, they'll have to register anyway. once they have registered, then they'll see it exists.

Gotta agree with O P on this one. :D I think the majority of guests are lookin for advice/info on here, and tbh there is sometimes a loada ****e posted on anythin goes..that regulars post.. me included..that guests wont exactly be searchin for.. :D
 
All we need now is Mod1 and we will have a menage a trois! :rolleyes:

Ere Roy - does that mean the rude, naughty and abusive stuff has to be in "anything goes" now?

Anything goes was created to keep rude, naughty and abusive stuff out of the way of people who don't want to see it. Anyone who reports anything in anything goes is just stupid for even venturing in there.. It does what it says on the tin.

As pointed out by Roy there is a VERY good reason for this, and as others agree, not everybody wishes to see bad language and smut when they log in. Just respect others views. If the only downside to this change is that you can't log in from work then please accept our apologies, but as pointed out it's this or clean up the whole site. Personally I prefer it this way.

Would this be to do with the latest rubbish the government have on porn censorship? My view is if all consenting adults=no issue.

Are you planning to put an age restriction on Anything goes? it may stop unwanted accidental viewing:D


Finally is this the Second coming [nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0GFRcFm-aY"]YouTube - ‪R.E.M. - It's The End Of The World‬‏[/nomedia] or the end of the world?

Or are you just increasing your post count:p

I don't think an age restriction is necessary but wouldn't rule it out. I'd rather it was completely open but our hands are tied i'm afraid.

And no it's neither the second coming nor me trying to increase my post count, I'm always here just often way to busy with other stuff to get involved with a lot of the threads. Unless I need help with the 90 of course:D:D

But it doesn't at present.... What could be classed as offensive by some is in areas outside of anything.... Are yu asking for it not to be, or will it be moved by the mods?

If my understanding of the situation is correct, telling people to burn it, swearing etc is to be in the anything goes section.

Technical assistance is to be a gentle calm positive thread.

it would also appear street viewing someone's house, posting their insolvency details and other such details would possibly best be avoided-
Due to possible legal ramifications.

Still you can always email them through a free email account via a proxy server:D So the game is still afoot.

There is nothing new about it, this has always been the case. This was all brought up a few years ago and left sticky for a while.

Nobody is trying to be a kill joy. You see how the other forums run, and even if we keep the really bad stuff off the forums it is still much more relaxed isn't it??

If you really think it isn't then spend some time on them and decide which you prefer to use.. simple..
 
Oh well, it was good while it lasted.
Shame though - another nail in the coffin.

I think your find a slight change in direction rather than radically different- but we shall have to wait and see.
