The staff doesn't pay as close attention to group subforums as the rest of the orums, that's why you get your own moderators..
if the sub-forum is viewable by all, naurally it has to follow all the rules so it's ok for all ages, if it's private and only group members can view it, then alot more is allowed, you kind of make your own rules (within reason)
it's a common sense thing, and the whole idea for group sub-forums liek this is to give people their own little place to let loose a bit and not worry about posting in the wrong forum, or having someone mess with you because they dont like others having off topic conversations.. if they don like it, they can stay in the other forums and not come in these.
I thought it was a good idea

was a combined effort by myself, Katie G, and the rest of the staff, the hollaback girlz were a test for it, and it's working pretty well there.
