Yeah, that will happen sometimes. Honestly it’s okay if it stays or get’s moved, it’ll be ok.
Pretty sure the idea is that the TOS doesn’t ban people between 13 and 17 so the forum HAS to be friendly to them since the optics/legality/morality of showing adult things to minors is atrocious. Plus, we want younger fans. The game itself will likely never be rated, and as such it is up to the discretion of players and their parents for whether they should play the game itself, but the online space we have here is open to everyone so…
Plus, we ban political discussions, so, combine the two, pretty represive overall atmosphere, which works, it’s not like thrive requires politics or adult content to function, and imo the general vibe of repressiveness helps a LOT in keeping everything sane even if I think the rules can kinda be a bit silly, if i say a curse word no one is gonna die, but if everyone feels welcome t say them, someone is gonna wind up saying something real bad because there is a big difference between “Belgium! Didn’t like how xyz turned out!” and “You’re evil and a Belgium and xyz!” and many people cannot see the difference because rules that allow cursing allow both (the latter would be removed for meanness or harassment, the perpetrator could feel like the content of the message was fine and they were punished for some alternate motivator). I think the rules make sense, but I have always wondered if this place will ever have some sort of a less restricted section. I’m unsure of the Finish laws, but I think making a little 18+ zone would be possible. I don’t think it’s needed, but at some point I think it might make sense. Maybe. For now of course, a vague “keep the vibes appropriate for 13 YOs” rule works fine, and the reassurance that 9 YOs can be kicked off makes total sense and seems to be doing okay.
