Back on the subreddit, I recall a user called /u/r_socialism_run_by_kids (or something to that effect that fit the character limit) and I am not surprised to find that there is now data supporting that assertion.
I would be extremely interested in similar data about Hexbear users. Frankly, what reason is there to assume that our user base is substantially different?
Seems like I see more of the former than the latter.
But one thing that sucks is seeing something like a post about school or whatever, then checking in on the megathread and it's half borderline-horny :top-use-words: :bottom-speak: :headpat: shit and I get really fucking uncomfortable. :libertarian-alert:
I think kids are also more likely to talk about their lives.
But yeah that fucks me up. We need the volcel police back and for them to include that weird petting role play that folks deem important enough for a mega thread.
Not to be a prude but cmon man :biden-harbinger: I much rather have a prude volcel site that stays on topic over a horny leftist wing of a fan fic rp forum
The volcel police depends on a network of snitches. Please alert the nearest officer if you see any offences in progress so that they can be dealt with
I mean they're trying but it's just one person with an account. I try to keep it up and call out people when it gets too much. I think we should unironically give the VolcelPolice account admin powers, just to keep people on their toes
I am calling for swift moderator removals of all horny posting, plus notification in the thread by the moderator of why the post was removed. Only through corrective action and education can we rid ourselves of the scourge of age-questionable hornyposting.
Yeah the TOS only requires users to be over 14 years old to have an account. Even if we changed it to 18 underage people would still be on here. So the best answer is just no sexual shit. End of story.
If the people want it, we are prepared to move to an admin role. Of course we would need to consult with the actual admins first, but that's another conversation. Until then, we remain (mostly) ever vigilant :volcel-judge:

We had a user survey a good while back and iirc the 21-25 segment was the plurality, so the average user here is significantly older than the average Redditor, which makes sense.

Appreciate the boomer comrades a ton personally. I can't imagine having to put up with this bullshit for over 50 years

I see a lot of posts talking about a posters highschool history class. But also about the same as people talking about their kids.
I feel like the accessibility might create a bell curve of age ranges centered on early/mid 20s

We've been saying this forever and it's been a non-stop deluge of aggro horny posters demanding horny.
The volcels are sick of it and are gonna RISE UP
Next struggle session: Horny gulag to protect the chaste scholars of the site from being distracted by weird head scratch emojis.

Yeah the @VolcelPolice is there for reason, and not a bit.
I think part of the problem is that VP was always at least in part a bit, and now it's gone on so long that people think it's entirely a bit.

We had a survey, average age of users was mid 20s, though around 20% to 25% of responders were under 18
So, not substantially different. I love how the people here really seem to dislike that fact, judging by the votes.
We lean like 3 to 5 years older on average but that's it really. Other than that it's pretty similar, if not exactly the same
Average? How do the median ages compare? ;-)
I'll need to try find the survey in the modlog or something. But yeah, I feel I am both too young and too old for this site at the same time
Almost 30 now lmfak
That's cool that you're 29; I myself am no longer in my early 30s, but anecdotes aren't data.
Data is a collection of anecdotes :galaxy-brain:
Nah it's data ur trippin
