Animation Source Forums

I personally think you're taking it way too seriously and acting somewhat immaturely about it. The reason we have that restricted warning is because when we didn't some young members' parents complained about having that sort of content. If you really want to read the fanfic I'm pretty sure as Wolf_Bassist said you could download it or PM Cat for it.

Because not everyone under 18 is like you, and after this warning it has been much more 'peaceful' than before it was implemented.

Wow, got a bit of fire to yourself there. Settle down, tiger.

It doesn't matter if you have the heart, mind, or stomach for it; the fact of the matter is that certain fics contain content that's just not suitable for children [and if you're under 18, you're in this category. accept it]. Baltosource, nor any other website, can condone allowing kids to expose themselves to such content without warning them of what to expect beforehand. Of course, steet knows this won't stop kids like you from clicking these links anyway, and unless you shout it out like you've so boldly done, there's no real way for the mods to know anyway. If I'm still not getting to you, just think that the rule primarily serves as a warning to all viewers that Baltosource cannot be held responsible for people who've scarred their innocent little eyes when they click to read a story that may have adult-oriented content in it.

Ask someone to type it for you if your that despreate, but if it has too much gore for you, it's your cookie now.
Adult Policy on the internet is great- really with art, I suggest you start to understand what it really does. Honestly, I don't think you can handle adult content, I've read some; [Books and Fanfiction] it's not as amusing as you think when your younger.
You might as well Cool off, I don't think the site will go on a rampage if you leave it.

Just do what you want and move on. Read it, don't read it. The warning is there because this site is designated as a children's site.

Your over reacting. Get over yourself...
It's there for a reason.

Now is this a total fail, or isn't there a law on this? Which steet has to enforce if he is to have such fanfics?

However, although whenever I click on a fanfic and it says "This is a R related fanfic", I usually just shrug it off and leave. No big deal for me.

Pretty much what everyone else has already said.
The LAW says that those limitations MUST be added to the site to protect people who are under 18.
Otherwise Steet himself could get in trouble for it and so would the site, especially with parents being protective of what their children see on the internet (rightly so aswell).

Most sites, if not all, have age limitations. If you look up a gory video on YouTube the chances are it'll give you a message saying you can't view it unless your age you set on the site is over 18.
If you choose to ignore it - that's your problem and your problem if you don't like what you see.
We put the warnings there for a reason, not just because we think "lolol lets ruin some people's day".




Moderators also have to follow the rules. If a mod happens to be under 18, even if by only a week/month/etc. they also cannot (or should not) view it.
The admin is over 18 anyway.

The only full-proof solution to this is to not even allow those fanfics on-site. But considering recent history, that probably won't happen. Save for removing them, making any changes will likely be redundant because it will emerge with the exact same problem. The warning is there, it is very visible. We just have to deal with kids thinking they are hardcore because they can bypass/ignore the warning.

Edit: I suppose increasing security would be helpful. Perhaps the user needs to be 17/18 to view the content, and if they are not, the page is not displayed.
