What makes kids different from adults? Are some things that are good for
adults bad for children?
I am a child. I'm twelve. (and turning 13 soon!) I have never seen any bad
content in b-shelf. Some things have occured, but were quickly removed. I'm
a bit sad at this moderating. One of the good qualitys of brickshelf was
that you could upload something and immedietly post it. My parents won't
let me make a website. B-shelf is the only way to display my pictures. I
have a space creation that I've now rendered, but I'm not going to bother
putting it on brickshelf yet.

I think you hit the issue on the head...that is the problem. By not
having images moderated, bad content is always a possibility. I think the
majority of the posters on-line are abiding with not putting bad stuff
on there.
I also liked the relatively pain-free upload features of brickshelf. You
could upload it, and then see it in relatively quickly on the world wide
web.
The really bad part about this is it will put a serious cramp in my
posting of pictures of various things I put up.

John & All,

Legally, there is a good deal of difference. The age to vote, drink, serve
in the military, get certain media products, etc. For Brickshelf, if there
was a large percentage of "adult" material on the site, Kevin would have to
put up disclaimers, etc. on it about people under 18.

I have. It has been taken care of in the past, but there has been times
where Kevin did not get to it. That includes questionable material, plus
other LEGO related items that were not supposed to be uploaded recently.

The only thing I can say here is to remember Kevin is running this website
by himself, and he makes the rules, much like LUGNET. I can fully understand
Kevin's response. If you decide not to use it, that is your decision.
