Re: Golden Days of GC

Hehe. In heart I agree with you and Lucky completely. In mind I don't. Part of the reason is, indeed, to keep GC as tame as possible, in order to be most able to remain online from the very moment GC looks for hosting. Then there is the issue that all links have to be manually checked - which poses a possibility of something slipping up in the time before it's spotted. Legal pics are not enough reason to get a site down through legal action. But they are enough reason to get a site down through the kind of pressures you both recognise. There have been, all through these years, many other fora that have been devoted, partially or primarily, to posting and trading legal girl (little and teen alike) pics - mostly child models. I know of no such site that allowed actual kp, and the majority would stay clear of all nudity and even nip slips under that rationale too. And yet they all go down after some time - why is that??? I don't deny the possibility that some members might have exchanged kp somehow using those fora, as is the speculation of a poster below regarding GLF. But the public forum itself would still not be reasonably described as a kp trading site... and yet the pics fora go down... all of them... I would also add that pics fora usually have other speech rules that GC doesn't. The kind of language that is required, usually demands to downplay the sexual aspect to it. Why it should be that way I have no idea, as most of the people there have no problems with admitting how paed they are, directly or indirectly... But there are, in general, rules on speech that would be negative for a site with the purpose of GC - not to mention that pic fora attract you in another mood than GC does, same as an adult bikini site attracts a breeder in another mood than a relationship advice site. I have nothing at all against pics. Or pic fora. I just don't think "the main" GC should be about that (though I wouldn't mind, theoretically speaking, a sister site); nor do I think the risks are worth it either.
