Here is the Community Guidelines:

Be kind, helpful, and forgiving
We will not tolerate racism, sexism, bigotry, or violent threats
Do not abuse, attack, threaten, discriminate, or mistreat other members in any way
Do not hijack threads, troll, or post distracting or meaningless content
Do not post spam, advertisements, or copy/paste comments and messages
Do not excessively promote your club
Do not publicly debate religious or political topics
Do not post obscene or pornographic content
Do not discuss illegal activities
Do not open more than two accounts (a second, anonymous account is allowed for training purposes)

While that forum may not directly violate any of those guidelines, it still somewhat does because 'dating' is not something that should really be discussed about in the public forums. Plus, about a week ago, I heard someone else say that forum violates TOS as well. It'd be good if the mods just lock it.

What is the "community" they keep on wittering about ?

In the modern world they don't exist in any shape or form.

Guys wake up and smell the coffee.

Sorta, there was also one labeled.."space sex"..🤮. I can't currently find the link but the thread is at least a year old and was still being commented on recently.

I asked for the part of the TOS that it violates, not the entire guidelines

It is likely closest to violating 7th, 8th, and 9th community guidelines.

It may not completely violate those guidelines, but it is like publicly debating something that shouldn't really be allowed.

If the mods see this it might get locked though.

Yes! We shall see. But what's weird is that he hasn't been online for almost a whole month.

To try and state why this forum needs to be locked though, it's because it is somewhat similar to this forum right here:

https://www.chess.com/forum/view/off-topic/smash-or-pass-me-85544195

That forum was locked because @StumpyBlitzer was there. The reason why the dating forum has lasted so long is because @StumpyBlitzer hasn't been around for a while.

Avatar of Temporary_Closed-backsoon

The meaning of "smash" or pass is a bit different then just joking about dating though

Avatar of Temporary_Closed-backsoon

True though, maybe if stumpy Blitzer was around. Idk

Here's an example of another forum that needs to be locked

https://www.chess.com/forum/view/off-topic/putin-is-a-loser

Avatar of Gamerqwerty56

Yes.

But the main issue with the dating forum is that it definitely does not deserve over 1000 posts. That only deserved like 50 posts max or smth.
