LEWD CONDUCT ON SIMS SITE!!
I'm not sure if I put this into the appropriate category, so I apologize if I did not. After stumbling upon a new Sims site this morning, I am horrified, and feel it necessary to warn everyone else that loves The Sims and wants to protect their children.
I understand that many sites specialize in what many may consider "inappropriate." However, many of these sites are PAY SITES (can't get a credit card if you're not eighteen) , and all of them have "adult content" warnings.
But this morning, I found something HORRIBLE. Here is the link, though be warned that it contains graphic, inappropriate, UNDERAGE sexual content.
*LINK REMOVED*
Here is a link to the website.
Many of the people posting here are offering sexual advice to CHILDREN as young as 13 years of age. The forum DOES require signup - but this is free to do, and one only needs to be 13 years old (or smart enough to lie about his/her age).
Detailed descriptions removed
This conduct online is not only inappropriate, but illegal. Lewd Internet Conduct and Corruption of a Minor are real charges with real consequences. This behavior should not be allowed to continue.
The reason I am posting here is because I was unable to contact the webmaster of MTS2, which hosts the offensive site. I think it's disturbing, to say the least, that one of the largest FREE sites for Sims2 content contains this type of language and discussion.
If anyone has any contact information for the people running this site, please let me know. This is unexceptable and inappropriate beyond words.

That is absolutely revolting.
Edit. I actually just saw the site, and that is disgusting. I don't know about the laws in the States, but omg that has to be bordering on paedophilia doesn't it?
No doubt, there are 13 year olds having sex. An internet forum like THAT is NOT the place to be getting advice about it.

Edit because I saw the the owner is still active... My advice below still stand though...
An email to Delphy may be in order so he can take the forum down.

Aaaah no... take a look at the forum titled "kinkyness".
Its not just sexual, its pornographic. There are posts from 14 year olds there.
Fat lot of good that did. I have just received an email back from him saying:
Quote:You have to be registered to see that site. You can't see anything in there if you're not a member. And MTS2 members are not automatically MikeInside members. He supports his own userbase. We may host them, but we're not affiliated with them.
I sent a gentle reminder that the age of registration there is 13, and they might want to think about whether or not they want to be involved in something illegal.
I am literally gobsmacked, or perhaps I am gobsmacked at the fact that I WISH I was gobsmacked. I'm not sure yet.
Anyone that thinks this ISN'T wrong should visit ***LINK REMOVED*** where children as young as 14 are posting photographs of their breasts. Though fully clothed in these photos, it's quite obvious what the intent is, and one can only imagine what the adults posting on this site are doing with these pictures.
I'm sure there are far worse pictures being sent via e-mail to inquiring, perverted adults. This is an absolute disgrace to The Sims Community and what it stands for.

That's all the informational posts from the first page. The thread got to five pages before being locked. Towards the end people who were abused as children were getting pretty upset and doing some sharing and crying type posts. The last post in the thread:
As this thread has taken a turn that is upsetting people, I'm going to close it. I'll let Barb make the decision as to whether it should be moved out or left.
