Just my 2 cents ....

The site is what it is .... an open forum without age restrictions. If adults are uncomfortable conversing about mature subjects w teens, then don't do it. If we feel the urge to control someone elses "offensive" post .... don't do it. If it's really that bad, there is a process .... report it to a mod.

Just remember pplz, the mods are not full-time post monitors. They are subject experts who volunteer their time and are here to make us smarter. The reason why alot of us come here is to get smarter.

As far as adults conversing with teens: The best thing we can do is be role models. Lets tell teens the truth about this hobby, when appropriate How there sometimes can be risks to what they are doing and sometimes their parents are right.

We are all trying to make this a great site, and I respect the ideas/concerns mentioned on this thread (even tarog ). If we ruffle each others feathers, so be it.

The bottom line is that the members all should tolerant and respectful of the larger community, and we can let the mods and Ron handle big the problems.
