The TK Lounge

[Azrael]

http://www.setbb.com/tkos

For the time being, The TK Lounge will be housed at the aforementioned address. We're brand-new, a TK forum dedicated to intellectual discussion, whether or not such discussions actually involve tickling (those that do, and those that do not, will be equally welcome). So far, it's just us lonely founders hanging about...

Discussion of the TK Lounge is more than welcome. We're particularly interested in what prospective members would like to see, by way of forums, polls, pinned topics, etc. A number of moderately amusing (or at least slightly entertaining) features are available, and being looked at, including a chatroom, a built-in java-based arcade, and a 'points' system whereby said points may be earned, through posting and playing games, then used to purchase exclusive graphics and-such (note that these features are not yet implemented).

Additionally, the TK lounge is a plast to post links to tickling media. The capacity to actually store large quantities of media will become a reality in the not-distant future.

Drop on by, and let us know what you think :)

Nope.....No thanks....

I Agree to these terms and am over or exactly 13 years of age

Minors and adults do not mix well....especially in discussing fetish related topics...

I shall pass this time around....

Of course I'll be joining..!!! Sounds like fun! :justlips:

Oh...and...since you are being picky with the grammar and spelling on the site...

dis.cuss, dis·cussa·ble, dis·cussi·ble adj.

dis·cuss.er n. (not discussor)

Synonyms: discuss, argue, debate, dispute, contend

A rather immature post, Venray, but I'll take the assistance where I can get it... after all, I did ask for it. Given the number of spelling errors that the average user of this Site makes, I feel that I'm at least permitted one.

Incidentally, that 13-and-over thing? Is SetBB. That's to use a SetBB forum. That is not specific to the TK Lounge, which for the time being is being set up on SetBB (one of the many "sign up for your own free sub-forum" Websites scattered across the internet currently).

Members who attempt to join the TK Lounge must be individually authorized by the two administrators, myself and Mairead, and thus we technically have a far greater amount of actual influence over age-related issues with our members than this Site does. I have no intention of allowing minors in. For that matter, I have no intention of allowing in random individuals that I've never heard of, before; I was planning on going exclusively with individuals from the TMF.

So, if they're underage at the Lounge, they're underage here too.

Honestly... how many prominent members have come out, here at the TMF, and announced that they joined before they were 18? One, as I recall, was even made a Moderator before they figured out that he was too young.

If you choose to avoid the forum, based on what you've already said (an implied resentment of a focus on intelligence, combined with a confusing and obviously poorly understood regard for age-related policies), well, it's your loss. You're more than welcome to join us. I would appreciate, however, if future attempts at libel were reconsidered before being posted; your post takes an out-of-context statement and suggest that I myself have advertised as accepting minors to a fetish-related Site. I am deeply offended at the implications.

when one learns the difference between sarcasm and immaturity one will learn to take a joke..... :jester:

Anyone who signs up on a fetish board where the age requirements are not 18 and up puts themselves at risk if something goes wrong...

It would be best if you refrain from making reference to the TMF in your posts so as not to encourage minors to join here...probably another thing you did not think through.....

As for prominent members that signed on here as minors...yes..there have been, but if it were discovered that they were minors before they turned of age they would have had their memberships removed....not the case on your new forum..

I spew forth no libel, sir...I just wish members here to be aware of the risks involved in mixing it up with minors on a fetish board....

the fact that at the moment minors can sign up there makes the risk not worth it...

The fact that you assume intelligent discussion cannot take place here or without your judgement as to what is and isnt intelligent makes me wonder why you post here at all and is an insult to those members who do post here...

[venray]

What are you using for age verification?

[venray]

i dont know what if anything is used...it is just that we state no one under 18 is allowed to protect us...

The freebie you are using does not state that and as such somone could complain that the topic for discussion should not be done so on that forum..

I am playing devil's advocate here knowing how hard it is to screen..

Also as I stated I do not believe a separate forum needs to be set up for intelligent discussion, but to each their own.... ;)
