Well then get out the soap and water because there are sure a heck of a lot lately who need their hands washed...mouths too in a lot of cases!

You clearly did not undertand that adage i see. Peace
As a long time lurker, I see this forum is becoming more and more just like the blackhat version of "digitalpoint". There is alot of immature kids and people in here.
Even though a "adult only section" most likely will not be created, to people who say don't discourage "young ones from makin money because a few of them are the future millionaires"
Please let's be realistic here. The few who "might" actually make any money are the ones who are mature and will not become discourage anyway. The rest of 95-99% would just fail. So in the end it is just a case of weeding out the bad apples much quicker.

21 Here, and I wouldn't mind.
I'm tired of the BS posts that are useless to any of us. I'm not new around here, just a lurker, btw...

You might only be 25 Virtualv but you remind me of my Grandmother saying that! She always threatened to wash our mouths out with soap for swearing when we were kids!!Your right mabey it's worth it to just cut the kids out i understand that would reduce the immature shit heads but most of the methods to weed out the youngsters are time consuming. I can't stand the kids on here either but the mature ones that are serious and devoted should be allowed to stay thats all i meant

We could just have 2 pictures when you first come to bhw. One of an xbox 360, the other of a bag of cash. If they click the xbox, kick em out forever.

Dear VirtualV, an old fogie speaking here, since i'm 45, is a matter of evolution, and patience, soon they move to another thing, or perhaps get a girfriend, a new toy, or somehting like that. As this is black hat, probably they'll fake their birthday to get access, buy a VCC, etc.
And yes, i'm a little tired too and of course, restraining myself a lot to give advice in these days, if they want to get burned, banned, flaged by the Networks, other members, well let it happen. It's life.

I thought that would be the theory behind exec VIP and jr VIP?
People will donate when they want to donate. But i think JR VIP should be done on a poll basis with the people already in jr VIP. Ive seen it done many times on other forums where they have a "secret" forum for those who have been there for a long time.

I agree with you virtualv...but another part of me says: TOLERANCE. Age is a poor indicator when it comes to voting, drinking, gambling, being all grow'd up. Some people can handle the responsibility when they are 18/21 some not until they are 40.
As our community is not quite as large as the one outside this box I believe we can be more discriminating (ohhhh, thats not the best choice of words) when it comes to identifying those that can handle themselves in a mature way and be an asset to this community.
As such start flagging the posts that piss you off. A profile will develop on those that are more trouble than they are worth. To help minimize the workload for the mods perhaps we could include a category which is titles "immature" or something similar. This was you can sort them all and see who is topping the list. Then the warnings start.
But overall I am hearing you.

That's a good point and also a good idea about "reporting" the dumb posts. It won't work in all cases, but might ease the pain a bit...

I kind of agree with what you are saying. There are a lot of under 18,s in here making a lot of money and they will give out some great ideas and stuff. But then 20 minutes later they are posting some bullshit or flaming somebody cause they are bored.
You can't mix knowledge with age. When I was 13 I had people 10 years older than me contacting me help them make money. I don't see why under 18's can't have access to information that others have just because they are born a few years after. If something like this happens I'll personally contact one of the admins to get me banned myself.
