I need to know!! Why is this?

[Taggerung_of_Redwall]

To add my own thoughts, I'd like to say that the expansion of the staff to local moderators has also proven very beneficial. Everyone does a good job making sure the forum stays in order, not over-moderating or abusing their powers. In short, good moderators.

AMEN!

The forum works because the members make it work...that includes everyone, not just admins and mods (though I will take the compliments and credit where it is due of course!).  We are picky but if we weren't things will get out of hand because, well, it happens, no matter if you're 12 or 32.

I have noticed some actions that have caught my attention on these forums... A positive one! Everyone seems so happy and caring, and they all participate with one another. I have not seen one objective post here! No swearing, nothing. Why does this community mesh so well? You guys are so awesome! I love how i can go on here, and see everyone taking constructive criticism, and replying to it well. Is everyone here 18+? Or does everyone know how to act?  Just some thoughts, I think it's awesome though.

1. We follow the rules.
2. I would guess that most of us, like Maudie, have been raised in such a way that we automatically shun swearing and other "adult-content" posts.
3. Our super awesome Mods and Admins quickly deal with any issues.

yep, that pretty much sums it up.

I'm 13.

We all mesh so well because we are all Redwall fanatics, and share common interests like reading.

That is true. I think it's because your basically around your kind of person, metaphorically and literally speaking.

the problems with me though even though im 12 im used to cussing with my peers i always look over my post and make sure i dont have any cuss words. ive started using less now due to this site. if we didnt have the rules the place would be a battle goround of arguements and d3efinetly get off topic with nothing to stop it

[MatthiasMan]

Yeah.

[rakkety tam]

i would also say we dont curse and stuff because its a rule

[Gears]

i would also say we dont curse and stuff because its a rule

That's true.. But if any of you went to reddit, or minecraft forums, *shakes head* Bleh.

[Lutra]

Cussing was never an element of Redwall, and as such its not going to be an element here.   The fact we all agree with that makes things work.

[redwallgurl]

yeah i like this site to be a kind of internet redwall like it and discussing it

I am 12 and this is by far the best forums i have ever seen. I used to be on the Warriors forums, but there was so much fighting that i quit. I am new to the books and i am reading them in chronological order instead of the time they were written and i think it is helpful to be able to come on and ask, and get a good reply.

I'm only fifteen, but everyone says I act like I'm thirty or something. I think every Redwall reader tends to be a bit more mature than the average person. Brian Jacques just had that kind of influence. I know it was he that got me into writing in the first place. I started out writing small poems for the Redwall books, then moved on to long fanfictions.
