View Full Version : JW age restriction.

I was talking the other day with a friend at University and we where talking about cars and I subjected to him JW.
He joined straight away but two days after came to me with a rather intriguing question??
He asked, “Shouldn’t the site have some king of age restriction?? Because I see there’s a lot of over 18 material, such as photos and links to videos, and there’s some member’s that are just kids.
I know these kids can get the same on kazaa or on any other website but looking at the site which seems to be very careful when dealing with copyrights, etc, isn’t it missing something is this specific part??”
After thinking for a few minutes I kinda agree with what he says.
Should these topics be in some kind of “over 18 group” or something like that??
I know that the under 18’s are going to disagree and that everyone is very welcome here and many may not agree.
What is your opinion on this??

Good point. This forum is primarily for cars but I was noticing the other day that the naked ladies on the site get a lot more traffic. Those topics will get something like 700 views but only 10 posts. Pervs like to keep in the shadows I guess. :wink:

well even if u dont belive me i agree...
cause i get distracted by that, specially when i can see it so easy..., in school and stuff like that...
What are you going to use as age verification?
Pics or STFU? ;) :lol:

no age verification needed , but u are right on the ball with the pics and vids of ladies being popular here. one look at the 36,000 views of my 99 pics(prob 90 of em ladies) third only to the post whore extraordinaire TT (197,000 views from 1771 pics)and a007apl. ive been looking at porn since i was old enuf to get a boner and know what to do with it. i wish id found a site like this when i was 15 cause i would be allllllllll over it instead of having to browse shitty porn sites with hurtin pop ups. besides all the pics are tasteful, there is no hardcore and the only thing remotly riske is the pics of tawny roberts i posted in the gallery with her fingering herself!(with 3500 views between the two of em, they are very popular)
if a 'child' comes on the site and the material is offensive(i doubt any male with a heartbeat is going to find NETHING on here offensive) then let it be up to their mom and dad to bust them lookin at naked girls, not us!

How would this be accomplished? You can change your birthdate to 1900 if you like and the net is full of pics. Good idea ...yet seemingly impossible.

Yeah, if a mom ever complains we can just say "It's not porn, it's art. Deal with it."

We should just slap one of these on those sections of the forum.

That way JW wouldn't be liable for exposing underage people to some good porn. :D

if age ever became a concern on jw THEN there'd have to be some kind of warning page. actually, maybe just a "terms of agreement" page that's displayed before registering, that would INCLUDE (not be primarily about) an adult material warning. if there were sexual content warning page then people might get the idea that this site is primarily for adult entertainment, which it's not.
frankly, if there were ever an age cap on the forums i think it should be limited to 18, since MOST of the queers and dumbess on jw seem to be below that age. don't make me mention names
We dont need no stinkin age verification, i hate how people try to hide reality from us non adults. We see it at school anyways. not to hard to get a girl to show titays.

If a kid is old enough to figure out how to use the internet then he/she is no doubt able to find porn. Maybe a little disclaimer just to cover our asses kind of thing.

what i find amusing is that various alcoholic beverage websites have 21 and over restrictions... ? why? its a website, you cannot drink a website (that i know of)
another thing is that not everyone has access to the gallery if i remember correctly. and a lot of places ive seen have 13 year old restrictions. in america, that makes sence since you can see 1minute of tities in the terrible movie titanic at age 13 in 'tastful' form. i think it becomes 18 when it gets 'vulgur', and 17 when its ... i guess somewhat less then 'vulgur' and that image of the girl fingering herself is the most like that..... but its also uploaded images by users, and not posted by the site as its own, but a place to store, and browse pix.
to close up, i dont think anything new is really nessesary in the form of a porn disclamer more then what already exists with the universal 13 and up.

I think this is very debatable as with many other issues, and there will always be people in favour and people against.
Maybe a little disclaimer just to cover our asses kind of thing.
I think maybe this is the best option.

Maybe there should be a disalaimer to prevent any possible lawsuits. But stopping people under 18? Come on! I'm under 18 too. :oops:

Right, firstly I want to know what 'schools' is like today. Two people have mentioned seeing it at school, I presume on the internet. I never saw any at school :? Man, I want to go back! Sounds like school is a peice of piss today! I know it is off topic, but there are plans on paying kids £500 to stay on at school after their GCSE's! :shock: WTF!
Anyway, I don't think that an age verification should be a larger feature on the main page. This is ment to be a car site, and as such, may 'scare' some people off if they see an over 18. Perhaps, an over 18 for the specific section of the forum, but certainly not the whole site.
At the end of the day, it is down to Jabba and Co.

yes, sweet tits, that means you too :wink:
Completely useless IMO... I always clicked "I agree" or "I am 18 years old" even when I was 15 LOL..

Maybe. I don't know England's laws (as I think this site is based there), but maybe those kinda contracts' small, very small words at the bottom of the page that "adverts" in some way, such as:
this web site may have images not proper to underage ppl.
In a comics shop my family had,we had to put a paper next to the "mature" and "adult" section so we couldn't be punished (closing the store or having an economic fine). After the little paper, we still allowed kids to buy some material "not proper" for them.
So... JW couldn't have any problems for that. And it's only a thought

The official line on this one is "we will cross that bridge when we come to it" its almost been a year now and still no sign of that bridge yet either.

Its art :wink:
c'mon
I always looked at it as art. :lol:
All the people who look at it and don't post under it must be under 18
I remember when I was under 18 I loved art.
My friend used to steal his dad's playboys and penthouses and sell them to us.
Those art magazines got me through the day

Completly useless. First off how will we verify age? Scan our driving license? Well I wont do it. I dont give out my address or phone number online, so scanning a document would not happen.
I went to porn sites as soon as they started. I was watching porn when I was 8.
If someone finds things here offencive then :fist:
If parents dont want their kids to see nudity then put in some website porn blocker or something..........
And how can a picture of a naked woman be offencive? I dont get it. A naked woman is reality and its beauty. Nudity is not offencive.
Penetration may be offencive, but trust me, you wont find any drilling action on this site.
Anyway seriously....no porn before 18? Thats just stupid. most people get laid at 15lol.

In my experience, you can get a bit of porn on the school PC's, but the girls in class are a better bet. You can't go through a day w/o seeing somebody mid-finger in the toilets or somewhere. Some girls are well loose, too, and will flash their tits at ne1 :lol:
To sum up - Skools gr8 and an age limit is a dumbass idea :roll:

I was very relaxed throughout that whole post. :wink: the problem with internet is that you cant show your emotions through it.

I don't consider pictures of naked women "porno". Of course, according to the dictionary, those pictures go under "pornography: Sexually explicit pictures, writing, or other material whose primary purpose is to cause sexual arousal. " Of course that's very debatable, but I must admit I've gotten quite a few boners while browsing throught the "babes" section.

um, I'll take a Coke and a Pepsi please... *Inside Joke*
But seriously... I dont think too many kids come here for porn... theres some way better sites, and also the section can go for weeks with no new posts... Not like i'd know, I just see them when the little Icon is yellow on the topic ;)

I don't think any of the porn sites around the net are trying to "enforce" their age restrictions, they just have the disclaimers to cover their as*.

It was just a relaxed suggestion. I don't believe anyone here didn't have a look at porn on kazaa or something like that. I remember when I was 12/13 letting my parents go to bed and then get out of bed to go and watch Playboy on TV. :D :D :D
It was just a thought and maybe a suggestion.

this has gone quickly topic, i especially like jabbas point, address a problem when one arises, frankly there isn't one right now, and whether or not anyone else can get access to porn sites isnt of value to the issue of if age verification is needed at JW.
