Has SN taken a step forward with the all new ADULT section?

Of course it's not as valid, if you're wishing to assert that there has been some deterioration in the content of the site over time. You have one point on your graph where others have twenty on theirs. Unless you have a fake user ID.
It has been explained why it was a 'pay for' section elsewhere. Yes it allows for ****, yes it allows for swearing, and any other adult content not suitable elsewhere. It has been pushed for at the request of members, as Corradoboy rightly pointed out. There was a demand for it, it was eventually brought in. Again, I will say, those who don't have any interest in what may go on in there, don't have to bother. The issue of how it is displayed has been raised, so that it doesn't cause issue to those who don't want to see any info as to what is going on in there.
To be honest the issue here is rather narrow and therefore my thoughts have the same validity as anyone else's.
Is it a step forward or a step backwards? It's a question of evolution. Some like it and some don't. That I'm afraid is the way of the world.

Strictly speaking, evolution isn't a step forwards or backwards, it's a change of gene frequencies in a population, in response to random genetic drift and the pressure of Natural Selection. But I take your point.

I always thought it was a change in gene material, not the frequency.

Regarding your other point, genes are the bits that make up genetic material - it is their relative frequency that changes in response to natural selection and random genetic drift. The macroevolution that follows is the result of those changes.

I've been in had a look and thought WTF!!! It's I'll swear cos I can and I'll post minging pics, cos I can, saw someone who I thought was a friend have a sarcastic dig at me cos I wouldn't pay to join, needless to say I'll not talk to the person again.
What I find incredibly ironic is that they shut down the BOTW group on a section of the boards due to alleged complaints about it
I don't believe for one second there was one single complaint! but hey ho
I have to admit I'm kinda pissed with the moderators here, I get the feeling that they feel because they are mods they are somehow far more important than the other users (not all of them but most of them) and that isn't good IMO
Funny though that the BOTW group was shut due to an alleged complaint, yet the adult forum still goes on despite numerous complaints here and in policy, people even wanting their orange club status removed, others wanting their accounts deleted, it's ridiculous and the double standards are ****ing unbelievable!!!
One rule for the mod gods another for the rest of us! TBH I'm sick of SN now and so fecking glad I didn't renew my +membership when it expired, I think my posting days here are pretty much over, I'll stick around for a bit, but my input will be pretty much nil from now on.
Cheers

I dont beleive there was complaints either, who would complain, the scoobynet wimmins are generally ok, some are even quite funny, i know we have our fair share of tree huggers, but even they must like looking at a bit of skirt?
The fact BOTW was banned is total bollocks, this is a scooby forum, you should have at least have owned a scooby to be here, that means you should be of driving age, which i turn means you have probably already seen many a muff in the back of a car or at a party, so a bit of scantily clad flesh isnt going to suprise anyone is it?
This forums getting like C.O.D, no swearing or antysort of banter incase kids are reading, the game is rated 17 ffs, kids shouldnt be playing it or reading forums about it!
And all thos peeps moaning about NSFW threads, either dont look at them or do some ******* work
And last but not least, to the git moaning about valley commandos avatar pictures in the oppposite thread to this, are you gay?

Nothing wrong with it in my opinion. PassionFord has done fine for a long time with the same kind of thing.
There's no adult content in sight on the main page anyway, only part of the thread titles. If you aren't interested in seeing the content, then don't look - simple.

That is incorrect. And you know it. The only thing admin (I) did with that group was delete some nude pictures based on reported posts (I didn't even know it existed until that point). Not everything was deleted, and the clothed pics remained. It was the group creator who deleted everything and shut down the user group, not admin. And that group leader appears to be "Tam the Bam"
So you shut it down. Not admin. I (as a moderator) just removed some offending pics.
As for the what those removed pics contained, well guys. I'm forced to do this just to be transparent and show what was going on: So if you want to see pornographic images carry on with the below:
(warning do not do the below if you don't want to see pictures of full naked women fingering their private parts
).Put "ScoobyNet - The Babe of the week appreciation club!" into google (with safeserach turned = off! ) and then open the "cached" vesrion on the top result and you will see a very nice exmaple of some of the pics that were in this group before I had to remove them.

I go in the sport section quite often and its the same users in there most of the time, shall we remove that because some don't like sport? I went in the Adult section just because i noticed it, had a look round some nice pics some not so nice
. If i don't want to go in i won't simple as.Also People that think they know best or know more or have more right than a newbie to post in threads. P**ses me off when newbies opinions are shot down just because their a "newbie". Every one should have the same rights in here , most people have been driving longer than Lewis Hamilton does that mean your the better driver? ( no doubt some people think they are or indeed some people might be
)

Olota fagina......on a more serious note, Manchester City have sold Shaun Wright Phillips to Madonna
No it's a backwards step and exactly the reason I stopped reading Max Power many years ago when the ***** outnumbered the cars.
This kind of things lowers the site from an enthusiasts/owners club to your Max Power chav brigade level, I for one will be staying away from it.

Plenty of **** on the net, does it need to be in here ? and as Clare says it kind of cheapens SN and you see people in a different light, especially a certain person that bought my Scoob, you filthy wench
Not that I'm averse to it, of course I enjoy it like most red blooded men, sometimes too much
just think that maybe SN isn't the best place to share the joy.....Just dont look if you dont like
