The more I think about it the more it doesn't sit right with me.

Kids and teens shouldn't be on a website that has porn on it, even if it's under a filter. I'd never let my kid on to Fur Affinity and if most parents knew the website's contents I don't think they would either. I think this place is well passed divorcing its relationship with porn (and shouldn't have to!). It's very clear that that is the main draw. I know it's easy to circumvent an age filter, but it would turn the general consensus from "I guess it's ok that you're here." to "You are not allowed to be here.".

What is the appeal of keeping it all ages? I'd partially understand (but still wouldn't agree) if relations with payment processors and advertisers were of concern, but as far as I know none of that is happening. Unless there are plans to get something like that going in the future? Even then, I'm sure there are plenty of adult oriented services who don't already have ads on here who would love to. Or even something like community funding.

I dunno. Just feel like a lot of the issues that FA's been experiencing over the years would be lessened if the people running the joint just got real and slapped that 18+ sticker on. If I'm guaranteed dick and balls on your website's front page every time I log in then you're running a website for adults.
