Hi all,
We the mods really need to get your opinion on this urgent issue. Due to the recent rise in number of threads on topics with either distasteful topics (brothel thread) or on topics which lead to distasteful spam and arguments (homo pole), we need your votes on this issue.

Some members like Type S Tony said to close the whole lounge altogether. In my opinion, having a lounge is a great thing because you can ask about all sorts of issues and get opinions from people in the know (for example, the passport validity thread). So instead of closing the Lounge, I would like for you all to vote on whether we should disallow threads with questionable topics. Questionable topics would include:
- What drug do you prefer to do?
- Which brothel is best?
- Do you donkey/falcon punch?

You know, the type of topics that have illegal discussion or generate many complaints from members through the post reporting function.

those are just stupid
vote no for all

closing the lounge is a very hard thing to debate
it may solve the prob
it may not

our lounge is on par with all other forums honda tech etc
but our technical section isnt as big as others because of our small size

Yup, that is why instead of closing the lounge, I would prefer that we stop the stupid threads. Keeping the lounge open is what I prefer.

Don't worry about the technical section. In this poll, it is only about the lounge.

Even though I don't drive a Honda I have a little blurb..

I think its fine to have this level of moderation in the forum, even within the Lounge thread. The topics started by some are offensive and even the ones that are started tastefully are bombarded by spam (eg. Nikki's hotmail issue).

I'm not sure what has happened, but I believe the level of respect members have for one another has depreciated throughout my years on this forum.

Some people have to be reminded that this is a "family friendly" forum, and the content has to be monitored. Just imagine a child was to click in on the "brothel thread" reading material that they shouldn't even be exposed to, its appalling, and to think that the thread lasted so long is beyond me.

From a personal perspective if the Lounge thread wasn't open I would reconsider visiting the ozhonda forum, as I am no longer a Honda owner..

Hopefully this is constructive.

That brothel thread is just wrong,FULLSTOP.It absolutely degrades the site and should have been shut down at the first site of it!!
The same person who started that thread is saying to shut the lounge down....are U kidding me,I love the lounge,it is my daily hit of smiles.

I thought the OH team was really onto this stuff,getting rid of all the rubbish and the people who come in and post it.What happened? Where/why did you guys lose the control?

Anyway,get rid of all this crap on here,clean up the site and keep this crap outta here!

there's no way to gauge that,
thats why theres a poll in this thread, so that people can voice there opinions.

and progress results show that most people would have found your brothel/sexual orientation thread disturbing and inappropriate.
those 6000 odd views would have been a majority of people clicking on it to see what it was about, then clicking off it disgusted at its content.
alternatively, that 6000 odd views is mainly of you and a few other people refreshing the thread over and over again in a hope to spam a few more posts within it to get your "lulz"

People who have to come to a car forum to find out HOW or WHERE to get laid, deserve to stay virgins for the rest of their lives!!

There are sex forums out there for the deprived, use them to find out where your local brothel/massage palour is.
That shit is distasteful and not warranted on a car forum.

We dont want this kind of material on Ozhonda, we want it out!

We have bigger issues to deal with on this forum than your lousy thread.
Reshaping the lounge and weeding out the crap within it be 2 of our main priorities.

Instead of trying to bend the primary goal of this forum, why dont you and the 3 other ppl that voted NO go off onto another forum to talk about your little sexual fantasies.

Keep the lounge get rid of the offensive posts. It seems that a VOCAL minority of kids like to post stuff like has been happening lately. They just want to stir the pot and get a reaction to their crap like the kids they are. I say keep the lounge and get rid of the trouble makers there are only a few easily identified kids causing the ruckus.

If the content of the thread can end up putting members in jail or being fined if the authorities read it, then it is not allowed. (i.e. drug usage, street racing, underage pron)

If the content of the thread is offensive to other members and they report it, then it will be evaluated and a decision will be made whether to delete the thread. (i.e. brothel, sexual aggression)

so you are saying that in the first instance only threads about illegal topics would be deleted? because I'm fairly sure this would be part of the terms of conditions anyway.


and then, that if a thread is offensive it will be deleted? Because im pretty sure this would already be covered in the terms and conditions.

I haven't bothered to read all replies.

But my 2cents.

The threads are fine. For those whom don't like it, maybe an icon like the 18+ one can be issued to the topic to allow users to know about these sorts of threads. Then its up to the user as to whether or not they read it.

It should have been deleted. In an attempt to let members have a fair go with their threads, we tried leaving their controversial threads to run their way and hoped that they would stay on track, but that plan backfired on us.

No need to put Qball on the spot. This move to remove those kinds of threads was initiated by me. And yes, the azn and hot chick threads are at risk of being closed down if there members start complaining about them.

We've allowed those threads to stay given that theyre from way back before any of you were members.

That does not mean that we're going to let the lounge become inundated with sex oriented topics of a crude nature.
Everything in moderation is ok... however a few of you have stepped over this line and have persisted in posting up complete utter shit for the past few months.

Seriously Everyone,
I have felt for a while that the quality of threads has been going downhill, things like the Brothel and Homo ones were a bit off, (as are the racist ones) I don't have anything specific against either, but surely the whole internetz caters better to that kind of info to search.

I enjoy the fun that some people come up with, but theres times when this gets to be a bit like /B/ on 4Chan, and lets face it, let it go unchecked and OzHonda will end up on Conroys Banned Sites filter list (Remember the Pedobear Sig Thread?)

There are times when I can't find good information on some aspects of owning/repairing a Honda, but it's far easier to find out who thinks drugs are cool, or who can start the most gross thread.

I think there should be some freedom of speech, but lets keep it kind of clean, we should be proud to have a cool place where we can come and hang out, not make it a playground for really stupid posts that probably make the rest of the car forums think we are just a bunch of dicks.

How cool is the "Pic that made you Lol" thread, that makes my day, even if I cant see all the images due to my works firewall, but most of the time I just avoid the lounge as it appears like some 12 yr olds chat room.

Don't close the Lounge, just bring its class back to where it used to be.

I don't think I will ever change from owning Hondas, but if this keeps up I will find somewhere else to talk Hondas.

Cheers
Tseesinn Gwailo

there is no argument

the asian girls and hot chicks thread are off topic just like everything else in the lounge

and all the pics in both of those threads are not even close to porn, just women showing alot of skin, nothing u wouldnt see on TV, so they are fine

and imo, as much as i love those 2 threads, that is all ozhonda should have, otherwise it gets messy and out of hand

the lowies thread had plenty of CP, glad its been burned

the brothels thread turned into how much drugs and what sexual fantasies tony wants done, it should have been, this place is good or not......thats all

and even that is of bad taste, glad the thread has been deleted

In my opinion... how about we keep the forum clean enough so that anyones 17yo sister can read all threads without wondering if all honda drivers are perverts, deviates or drug users (by all means keep the PG15 hot chicks thread it seems to keep you boys amused) but dont go to the gutter level, it just isnt needed.

In my experiences OzHonda isn't held in high regard by most other forums anyway. But the people who hang out in the Lounge are a different breed. I like OzHonda for its relaxed attitude, which I haven't found on any other forum. Because I enjoy coming back to OzHonda I couldn't care less what other forums think.

Yes, we have not been strict in enforcing it though. And that has lead to the sharp influx of poor threads.

Hopefully it will bring back Ozhonda's reputation to being a noob-friendly Honda forum, and not a forum popular because of its lounge and lax attitude.

one of the polls you commented on the other day aarong wasnt really a bad poll...
if people are replying to it and are taking part in the poll, others must want to know the answer too, dont you agree?

but i do agree with you. the ones you mentioned theyre just fkin stupid and a waste of space

It sounds exactly the same to me, you have been closing threads that are illegal and waiting for reported posts on the distasteful threads. It doesn't sound too much different at all.

one of the polls you commented on the other day aarong wasnt really a bad poll...
if people are replying to it and are taking part in the poll, others must want to know the answer too, dont you agree?

but i do agree with you. the ones you mentioned theyre just fkin stupid and a waste of space

Yes, I agree. What I have been doing is allowing threads to run along their way until they get out of hand and they get closed. So all those threads, including threads like the brothel and homopoll, went that route. But in the end they all turned to pointless name calling and got filled with gay insults. And the backlash for me doing things this way was from members who then said that I should have deleted the brothel thread straight away and not let it run for the many pages it did. That then gives the image that the mods don't monitor the lounge enough and then get more complaints that we aren't doing our job.

So with this poll, we are trying to get member feedback on what you all think about the recent influx of poor threads. I don't want to suddenly announce that every bad thread will be deleted and clamp down on everything. That is just too extreme in my opinion. I want feedback from members, which we are getting really good ones in this thread, so that we can fine tune our guidelines on what is allowed, what should be allowed to run until it gets out of hand and what should be deleted straight away.

Also, with support from all of you on mods enforcing this, it will help the mods identify these rubbish threads because members will make use of the report post function more frequently because they know that the mods are working on getting rid of these types of threads.

Its a Forum! its a place were people congregate to talk about certain things, in this case its our cars, but in talking to diffrent members over time relationships/friendships are born between people and enevitably over time the taling isnt just about cars anymore, its just human nature & thats the way we humans are built.

When a mod comes along and says we cant discuss certain things and we have to do this that & a whole heap of other bull crap to keep the forum alive this just shows me that the mods dont have any respect for basic human nature & its actually very Nazi of them to be discussing this!

Yeah but it up to individuals weather they want to read a certain thread or not, if a memeber decides to open up a thread and have a look, to me that signals that their interested, if something that is interesting to members is posted on the forum doesnt that thread have the right to be allowed to go on?

don't take offence but it may also mean they want to have a laugh at anothers exspense

or to make themself feel better by seeing how many people have to pay for sex when they don't

Sorry mate but the mods have more of a passion for the running of this site than you ever will. It appears that this forum is a bit of a joke for yourself and a few other members who do not provide anything constructive in regards to making Ozhonda a friendly place.

It's easy to sit and complain but it takes a lot more to actually do something about it.

As for your 'nazi' comment. I cannot make any sense of what you're trying to say however the general concensus is that we will be cracking down on these silly threads.

i hated moderating because of the lounge itself. that is partially why i quit.

As for your question, the 'line' can never be defined in reality.

Perhaps we can have a sub-forum in the lounge for all those sex depraved, drug addicts to post all they like. But have the lounge itself a family friend environment. Moderators can move offensive threads at THEIR discretion. Dunno.

Life's always but a decision,do I follow my ego,my lower self or do I follow my intuition/intellect higher self.It takes no brain power to think about screwing a chick,it's a lusting desire to posses another whether you believe that or not and it's operating from the ego,the lower self.
You should go somewhere where people's minds are made up and are more than happy to sit and wallow in those negative energys and not prey on the young and easily impressionable!

Kid starts reading about a brothel thread on ozhonda,figures it must be all fine and dandy to just go and pay for sex,on a regular basis,kid ends up some sexually perverted freak! the world is full of already full of em'.

What is blowing people away is just how comfortable you are with going to brothels and paying for sex on a regular basis!!
But whatever,each to thier own!
BUT You know full well how impressionable these young kids are but yet you continue to talk about this stuff to justify your actions to yourself and make you stay comfortable with you.Truely the act of a selfish and self serving person.

Can U see how a man can easily become a sexual deviant freak if he starts down this path that you have offered? Can U C???

When I was 13 we went on a holiday to greece & one night when i was out an about with my uncle and my cousin they asked me if i was a virgin or not, I said no and they straight away took me to the nearest broth & got me laid, I have them to thank for opening up my eyes and seeing for myself what the world really is all about. I just hope that i can provide the same service for any other 13 year olds who are oblivious to the world around them and get them trained up for sexy time with girls when they get older so their not left behind the pack when their 18 & still a virgin like alot of the members seem to be on this forum!

It's a very interesting topic and it has made everyone think,that is a good thing.

But what is obvious is what 'going to brothels' and the sexually desiring for
other's does to someone,especially men.You are old enough to see that and you should have the decency and respect not to put it in the faces of the young and impressionable and that's that!

Type S Tony
22-05-2009, 12:30 PM
look im not some sexual deviant who cant controll himself @ the site of a woman or some guy who cant get a root the normal way, Brothels have been part of society since the jesus days so we need to face the facts and realise that its part of human culture!
Some guys prefer to go to the broth and pay their $150 and get the chick of their choice and fulfill their fantasies whilst other prefer to go buy a shirt $100, pay entry to a club $30, buy drinks for the night $150, buy drinks for a few chicks you might have a chance with $100, try all night to get the chick to come home with you! get a cab back to your place $45,have some random chick in your house who vomits on your carpet cause of all the drinks u bought her, need to pay for steam cleaning $300, she loses her wallet somehow & needs a ride home $50 to fill up the car with petrol, the list can go on.

Potentially is can cost up to $925 for a root for 1 night, Now you tell me where is the value in that?? oh i didnt even add up the mobile phone credit for calling the bitch!

This is why we need a brothel thread, to save guys going out every weekend and blowing hard earnedd $$$ on chicks like Clare From the Cross **Chk Chk Boom**

beeza
22-05-2009, 12:39 PM
let them blow there money and hopefully they will never do it again!!!

You are truely honest but that does not make it fine.

There's a hell of a lot more to this world than sex and those energies.

OR

There's FAR greater energies to experience than the sexual ones,FAR FAR FAR greater.The sexual desiring energies are a trap,a trap of darkness.It is an act of service to self and pleases/satisfies the lower self.Act from there long enough and you are gonna have a real battle retaining your will from darkness.Lose your will and it's all over for you.

And that's that.So I see the danger and I act accordingly,just like everyone else has acted because they know 'it's not right' but just not sure exactly why.

18+ is there to be used as a warning

leave things as they are

no subforum for shit

u wouldnt talk about a brothel and ur experience whether it was good or bad publicly, so get rid of it

asian girls, hot chicks and the lol thread are all common topics

so they are fine

there has to be a little bit of moderator discretion, stop making such a big fuss about such a dumb shit ass thread as the brothel thread

like i said tony, if it had remained a discussion about X place is good, Y place isnt, then it was fine, but it decended into talk about ur sex life and what drugs u do or do not want to do, WHICH IS ILLEGAL

dont get rid of the lounge

Haha,either do I Tony :)

I believe there are 2 ways we as human's can go.Life is but always a decision to follow the lower self or higher self.

We all have 'free will',that is universal law and cannot be violated.Free will to make our own choices,problem is most are not aware of the choice and are bombarded with that much crap all day everyday,crap which you can and can't see it's not long before they give into it and it's power's and start gravitating towards that energy.
Sex,guns,money - control,power,these are all acts of servicing the self/operateing from the lower self and are all traps set up to seperate U from your will.Darkness/evil cannot just take it,it has to trick,lie and decieve it from you.The more you operate from your lower self,the ego,the weaker your will becomes and you gravitate towards the negative service to self energies and you become a service to self being (STS) from a beautiful becon of light - Service of other's being (STO).
Here,life is but always a decision,whether we stay strong and true to the divine or not,therefore there are only 2 outcomes - A Service to self being (STS) or a Service to Other's being (STO) and until one has control over thier own decisions they are easily swayed to the dark side.It's so sad how many true light beings have been lost to darkness.

This is the danger.A great great danger.

Looks like the point has been made in this thread. The Lounge will stay (no subforums) and we will be cracking down on threads that do not belong here.

Will keep this open incase there are any other valid arguments. However if it ends up resulting in why the brothel thread should stay, it will be locked.

I have my email linked to my email client on every PC that I have and it is checked everyday. I can pull up every single reported post from 3/3/2009 (none earlier on this PC just because I cleared the folder). On my home PC, I can pull up every reported post history probably from 2006. And no, I don't see you reporting the wog post in there when looking through this whole week's reported post. Maybe your report button is broken.

And please open your eyes. One mod not checking reported posts does not mean that every mod does not check reported posts. So stop ASSUMING things.
