For those of you who are upset by the strictness of our roleplay rules - please remember that this site has always been a family-oriented website with strict content rules and a large proportion of our members being children or young teens. I know and understand that the rules on things like romance and violence will be too strict for some members' preferences - I'm an adult too - but for those people there are just hundreds and thousands of other roleplay websites you can use which aren't targeted at young children. If you choose to roleplay here then please follow our rules. If you don't like the rules then please roleplay elsewhere.
It's a pretty common trend for people to join CS when they're young, enjoy the light-heartedness of it, and then as they grow older they feel like it's all turned to crap and is totally babyish and dumb. Well, it really doesn't change that much over time, you're just older and have different values and interests. It's normal to grow out of things. That doesn't mean the site has to or should grow along with the "first generation", as we have new children and teenagers joining us every day that we are still catering towards.
It's not possible for one site to please everyone, and we are well aware that we're not the ideal site for people who want to post mature material in the forums. We never have been that site.
I am actually pretty okay with the Role Playing Rules. They are well balanced and not too strict.
Good RP stories are NOT full of inappropriate stuff, which are usually not needed to make it neat. That's what I think. c;
That's a good point, Naira. I agree with you.
It's kind of funny because I always took for granted how clean CS was. Until I got older, I thought everyone and everywhere was appropriate. That's isn't always the case. I've seen bad stuff on CS, (pretty sure they were buried or taken care of by now though) but I've seen much, much more on other sites. The mods are very good on here.
