    Great idea Clunky, this has been talked about previously mate.
    I will continue to delete any posts that I deem unsuitable for our family orientated forum.
    I know that some may think I am a bit over the top on my moderation, but I will continue to do so until I am told different by AB

Having the threads tick over is healthy for the forum: the Meme thread is harmless enough, if things are a little more relaxed in the memes thread it is a sign of the times, Memes are the new way making a joke, most are funny. There needs to be a line be in the sand for sure, our argument has always been we must protect the forum from google rankings, memes make it invisible. I'd be happy to scroll through that thread for a laugh. Maybe a language warning or banner colour change for that thread only or something.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    No issues with that mate...... I know you do what you think is right for the family friendly side of things and I know I have a habit of pushing boundaries.

    But it would be good if this can be made to happen....... at least for your sanity hahahahaha

    This has been discussed a hundred times and crossed my mind a million more.

    I think it's time to come up with a solution to suit us all and keep this place humming along with similar attributes on how it was built.

    Ill get back to this thread tomorrow with an answer...

    I don’t think we should underestimate the influence having one ‘private area’ accessible by a few might have on the forum long term.
    I also fully understand that those who have access don’t need to look, but my view is that it is the absence of what some might find offensive or unpleasant which makes this forum one where we all want to be. I wouldn’t want to see that put at risk. We can each have different views about what influence a thread as being suggested might or might not have, but if I’m correct & it ends up having a negative or destructive influence, the problem is that it is too late by the time it is recognised. I’m no prude, but my preference would be for things to stay as they are. There are any number of other venues online for the ‘NSFW’ stuff.
