Big site update!

[Thalassic]

I like the new updates, but I think there should be an rp/talking board for people who registered 16+. Only people in or over that age could view and post in that forum. There would still be moderators and rules, but it will give more freedom to the older players on cs.

That would kinda make it tempting to see how far the rules would bend and some users might think that the regular rules are not as strict there. Meaning we would end up with a whole lot of confusion and rule breaking.

So? The rules are too strict here anyway. It ruins everything the older members here worked for.


But seriously, are there any roleplaying sites for older people that are as popular as CS? I've looked and looked, but I can't find any. I tried making my own site, but it didn't attract enough people, so now it just sits there. Can someone PM me a link to a good website for older members?

I have seen many rule-free role-play sites, but I cant really help with any links at the moment since I have to paste something important and cant copy anything else. >.<
But Making another forum would be even confusing, and wouldn't people just make another account and change the age o see whats going on there?

You've got to remember guys, CS is a pet-collecting site. Its first and foremost idea is adopting and collecting pets, everything else is periferal for people adopting the pets. It's not a roleplay site or art sharing site, all those are just additional options for people who adopt pets to spend their time on. So it's kinda unrealistic to expect CS to be a very advance RP site with very user-friendly rules for RPs. Be happy CS has those additional options at all, because most game sites dont have any RP boards.

The rules aren't that strict actually.... Like EVERYONE has been saying, this is a CHILD FRIENDLY website.
Do you think children should be reading about teen pregnancy or cutting themselves? Kids are influenced by the things around them and they wouldn't know any better.
The whole website must be child friendly in order to keep it safe. Do you realize that parents are trusting CS with their child knowing that it's safe to play on this website? Yeah they are, and just because some adults or older teens think it's fine doesn't mean it is.
Just go on a different role playing site. There are plenty out there, and it's not like a person HAS to be in a role playing website 24/7.
Also I'm sure there are tons of kids that would say they're 16+ so they'll be able to read and chat on the 16+ board.

Umm...Is there gonna be a Free Art Request section added?
I'm well aware of the many people wanting/asking for one, but I wanted to know from the 'experts' if there is any "behind the stage" talk about adding it. x3

Thank you for the work you put into every thing.

Honestly, I don't care about the violence rule--I find harsh violence disturbing myself. By "dark", I mean mental health disorders. That's the one rule that I really hate. I'm sorry CS, but mental disorders exist, and outlawing them will not make this place "child-friendly." Heck, I was born with mental health disorders, so as a child I had them, and I still have them. They're depressing, yeah, but they make me who I am, and outlawing that is just a stab in the back.

i have mental disorders as well, and it's quite upsetting that people roleplay them in a glamorized way. mental illnesses aren't a thing to be taken lightly and i'm definitely very happy that CS has said they aren't allowed in roleplays. with your mental disorders, i'd think you might feel the same way.

anyway, i am in love with the new update. *n* new rules were definitely needed and i'm incredibly glad for the picture rule. the RP boards lagged my computer something awful. D;

'Outlawing' them is a good thing. I don't wanna see a bunch of people roleplaying with mental disorders they don't have. Any and I mean, any RP site you go to, you'll find nothing but people making their character(s) have nothing but Anxiety disorders, Mood disorders, Personality disorders, ect, ect. It's so, so offensive to people with the disorder. I would know, I have to watch people do it on other websites. I hate watching people pretend to have something and sugarcoat it, when I have the disorder and know it's nothing like that. Which is all people do, they never do the 'whole' disorder. Just some parts of it that they 'enjoy'. It's offensive for almost everyone to have to watch people pretending to have their disorder for fun.It's makes it a very child-friendly place, I don't think 'friendly' would be children seeing people cutting themselves, staving themselves, going insane, being suicidal , and you get what I'm saying.

I type too much and a late reply.
