it's all porn

It doesn't appeal to me at all. The layout is confusing, the avatars look awkward, the content is crude and the name is horrendous. I won't even make an account to test out the other stuff, because from what I've heard there's really not much point because it's cash items from the get-go. I can't see it lasting all that long.

[Sweatpants Princess]

The option to check SFW wasn't even available when I made my account, right before it went down.

Damn.

Damn.


But yeah, I don't like the layout. Forums are appealing to me, tags and scattered topics are not. I don't use reddit, pinterest, 4chan, or tumblr tags for very good reasons. I have types of sites I actually enjoy using.

Hate the avatars.
I really hate to bash the artists, but they do NOT do it for me. Bases, items, anything. It's all s**t. I stopped playing dressup games on deviantart to avoid this aesthetic. :/
Plus, ew ew heavily heterocisnormative ew, and basically is like a dating site on a bad trip, and porn literally makes me squeamish if it's not cartoons and art (sometimes even if it is).
Not about that life.

Needs a lot of moderators to keep things under control. It would help if its rules were laid out for new users from the start (not that it'll help really, but still. A lot of people seem to assume it's a porn site, but there's a NSFW section for a reason).

Needs a lot of bug fixes, especially the annoying one where if you buy something when you still have it set as being tried on in the shop it'll take your currency, put the items in your closet, but when you try to equip them it'll tell you that you need to purchase them stare

Needs a tutorial of some sort since people are confused about how to earn currency.

I'm not sure what you're bleeping out there..

But you do realize that it's your own choice for signing up for an 18+ site and ticking the "NSFW" box.. right?

Anyway. I hadn't selected the NSFW box. Because I'm at work.
I feel a bit left out with everyone screeching over the genitals though.
:c
I wanna see a pretty water colored p***s...

You don't need to tick the NSFW tag.
You'll see a swinging dong regardless if you actually make an account.
I don't even want to explore further into that rat nest of unsightly images.

All you have to do is visit the website, it'll immediately take you to Explore Forums >> Trending.
After that, just scroll down and ... yeah, it's there.

It's there and I don't even have an account. So, it has nothing to do with tagging a NSFW tag.
I know they dedicated a forum for it, which is a huge mistake imo. However, it shouldn't be out in the open like that. Not everyone feels comfortable with a naked man swinging his junk around.
18+ doesn't mean I want hard core p0rn.

Oh well there's your issue.

Wangs are always trendy. emotion_dealwithit

But seriously, there are way worse websites.
I think this issue is just getting blown out of proportion because everyone is in love with cutsey little Gaia.
But what's one sex crazed teenage brother compared to the numerous serial rapists running amok?
By brother and rapists I mean websites.
I like metaphors.

TL;DR
It's nothing new. And it's not even close to making it to the top 1000 most obscene websites list.

[Kurochan1]

Yes you lucky few who are spending your Gcash, your money is going into a new gaia porn site.

[Sospel]

« ‹ It's really rather bland right now which is probably why I haven't really been on since I made my account. It seems like everyone has more interest in posting NSFW stuff than anything else, really.

The interface for the avatars is still pretty dodgy, I think. The layering on a lot of the clothes is weird (coats and dresses don't usually layer together, corsets don't layer over most shirts) which bothers me a good bit.

Navigating the "forums" is a bit of a pain in the a** if you aren't familiar with it (even as someone who uses tumblr A LOT, it's still weird.) It'd be nice if they were a little more organized instead of just "WOW HI I'M HERE!"

It's boring. There is no atmosphere.
The avatars are very nice, but the forums are bland.


Also, a big point, I don't see it as "the other Gaia" at all.
It's similar because it's made by the same company.. but I doubt it'll actually be anything more than a generic forum-with-an-avatar-stuck-on-the-side-of-your-posts

Boring~

I didn't make an account, you can travel freely there actually. I apparently caught my cousin (below than 18 ) surfing freely on that website. neutral He said, "I'm too curious that's why I check it".

The sad thing. Most under 18 year olds are gonna join it anyway.

Let's be realistic, most under 18 year olds with access to a computer have been staring at genitalia for quite some time before their 18th birthday.

Pretty much!

Same with the 13 year olds on dA who do public smut Roleplays.

« ‹ Pretty much the only reason it's labelled 18+ is that is allows pornographic content to be posted, and the avatars are somewhat anatomically correct.

[Mr A s t a r o t h x]

I tried it out and it's nothing...to get bent out of shape over?
It's very slow and confusing and needs lots of work
especially with organization
but it's nothing any hasn't seen before--especially from a new site.
So I'm not understanding the why everyone is freaking out to this degree.

I'm not happy resources have gone into making a site
that is obviously just trying to follow a trend
but it is what it is and it could be worse.

I'm hoping to see it develop and better itself
especially RP wise. Smut RPing aside, it would be nice
to be able to RP graphically violent and mature themes without worrying
about getting in trouble as you would here on Gaia.
