Idea for new forum: Adults Only Lounge
Must be over 18 (or 21, maybe). Sex talk okay. Only open to registered users who would have to certify their correct age. Is it needed? Is there a demand? Workable? Practical?

2. It's been suggested.
It was a no-go. Short of creating a new, private forum, there's really no way of doing that here.

4. Reason #13423 I'd need a fake ID card.
Good idea in principle, but I think it'd be too hard to carry out.

Just my $.02.

5. Never gonna happen
Never. But you could go run it by Skinner in ATA. I'm sure he'll have something witty to offer. Perhaps some Swedish Fish?

7. Although I'm sure I'd enjoy it...
I don't think that is the image that DU wants to project.

18. I've wondered about that...
Edited on Tue Apr-05-05 09:33 PM by sendero
.. but I'm sure the admins don't think it appropriate, and that's fine with me.

What *could* happen is that someone could set up a message board somewhere else. They are pretty easy to set up, as long as there aren't thousands of visitors.

So here's how it could work:

1) get a domain, say "duforum.com"

2) set up a free forum board (phpBB or yaBB)

3) let folks register - but here's the twist: you have to prove that you are a DU member and that you are the DU member you say you are.

That would be easy, but it would require manual intervention. When you sign up, you have to go to DU and make a post using a set of key words. You supply a link to the thread/post. A duforum administrator would verify that you really are who you say by checking your post.

Ok, I've done the hard work, I've figured out how to do it. Who's gonna go for it :)

19. Your junk will likely end up at the credit union.
They like to find out personal information about people, and will probably infiltrate any forum like this that's on DU.

There's only a partially nude pic at the top, but the rest is one of the funniest things EVER. If you posted in this thread, you are on that site!

26. meh
an "adults only" lounge would make it ALL sex, ALL the time. and thats not entertaining, IMO. It's better when it slips into a kitten thread, or something random. Posting in there would be like you HAVE to post "sex" threads
