Pretty sure I already know the answer but new posts from the Adult & Yaoi/Yuri sections don't show up at the top do they?

lol @ the cats and dogs

What do you mean in the top? If you mean in the lil part at the side of the releases page, it does.

I think she meant the new forum posts in news. Nope, it doesn't. 18+ used to, once upon a time...

Oh, a question: how is "yaoi" pronounced?

O_O there's this girl who was talking to me about it sometime ago, and she was like "yah-wee" this and that and I have no freak'n clue what she was talking about until she mentioned a title (which was actually shounen-ai, but I got the idea)...

By top I mean on the homepage where it says "Latest Topics" right under the Stop Tazmo.
I've seen it on the side...I think. But not on that top part

Weird I just noticed that as well. Maybe it's some sort of censoring?O.O

I asked the same thing not too long ago. xD
I think it's ya-oh-e 😕 Don't know forgot. I pronounce them all wrong!

@Sefina: you're welcome~

And yep, it was because of thread titles that aren't for minors and to dissuade them to check it out too, I think.

Ooooh, great minds think alike, May~ 🤣 Ya-woi and ya-oh-e O_O lol so many possibilities!

maybe I should just call it gay smut lol

And thanks for answering, guys.

I call it Yah-ohii (or something like that).
I've watched a clip on youtube and the pronunciation was the same.

*Breaks the Female thread take over

I call it ewwww

j/k

anyway, is an open code operative system a good idea?

I mean, it sure as hell sounds fun to program, but I have the feeling hackers would have a free candy shop day with something like that.

Yup, we did that on purpose too. Most of the stuff we do is on purpose...but that doesn't mean we're entitled to tell you our reasoning , although in this case, you pretty much got it. You realize how on the front page, only thread titles are shown? Well, it cropped up before that there were some really obscene thread titles we didn't want showing on the front page...We usually don't allow those anyway, but if some spamming bot or person suddenly does something, a mod or admin might not be online to delete the thread. And since it'll be the newest thread, it'll show on the front page...and if people keep bumping it, it'll be stuck there too >_>

Oh, a question: how is "yaoi" pronounced?

やおい/YA-O-I/Yowie - like the chocolate/slang for Bigfoot.

O_o
dunno about the chocolate, but the only similar name for Bigfoot I can think of is "Yeti" which is...not quite the same...

Fouke Monster - Fouke, Arkansas
Lake Worth monster - Lake Worth, Texas
Momo the Monster - Missouri
Nuk-luk - Northwest Territories
Old Yellow Top - Ontario

and Chewbacca xD

Is it possible to delete comments made on series' pages (and if so, how)?

A comment you made or someone else's? If someone else's, you gotta have an admin (like me) do it. Forum mods don't have that power. You can delete your own though...at least I'm pretty sure...

Nope, you can only update your own. Unless it's a hidden box or something.

Random question based on Mei-chan no Shitsuji having a lolicon tag: Does any series with a pre-pubescent (what age is that?) love interest get a loli/shouta tag? Only ones where the pre-pubescence is sexualized? Is it loli if the girl has breasts?
