So here was my situation. After I inherited FaeNetwork, I excitedly told my parents about it. Shortly afterwards, I was told that I could no longer have the website or make costumes, because the believed that cosplay and anything related was purely a fetish and I would end up getting in serious trouble within the community. Apparently my mother looked up 'cosplay fetish' and no shit every search result was about fetishes. She didn't even bother to simply look up 'cosplay'. Obviously I pleaded against that and said that they could look all through my cosplay sites including FaeNetwork and MerNetwork, but I forgot that this was the NSFW thread's prime time. I thought I would be done for and that was the last the mer community would ever see of me.
I don't know how, but somehow my parents didn't find the NSFW thread. But just imagine if they did? I don't want my passions to be labeled as a fetish and I really don't need anything to prove those labels.
Honestly, the thread din't bother me at all. I'll admit I had to peep a few times and have myself a couple of laughs. I'm a total Kerion shipper and my mer friends and would text each other whenever there was something juicy between the two.
I'm just worried about how much trouble content like this can get people in trouble, and whether or not it can get the site in trouble. MerNetwork seems to have a bad rep at the moment as it is. I don't think threads like this should be public, only for the safety of the forum. Is there a way you can make threads visible to members only? Or keep them from being indexed by google at all?
