Comment by Friends of Angela Lansbury - Bet on July 6, 2010 at 8:20pm: Not adult adds though like I ran into on Socialparody.com. Ning has been a friendly site. So far so has socialparadox.com

Comment by Magic Happens on July 6, 2010 at 8:17pm: l like what l did see on FOREST OF TRANQUILITY website. We all may run into some adult sites, but if we are mature we can just click off that site. l am sure there are many nice sites like FOREST OF TRANQUILITY and like yours will be. Ning has some adult sites also.

Comment by JenSocial on July 6, 2010 at 8:16pm: Good deal FOT.

Beth, these 2 platforms are owned by the same. Yes, you are correct that you should not see any Adult content on the one you are using.

Best,
Jen

Comment by Magic Happens on July 6, 2010 at 8:09pm: Let's blame it on the links. lol

Comment by JenSocial on July 6, 2010 at 7:59pm: Forest of Tranquility,
I feel I must share this with you, and you're probably not going to like what I'm going to share with you. But trust me, I only tell you out of my duty to help our members, the best I can.

Here it goes: The only unfortunate thing here, whether you realize it or not - - these 2 platforms will likely be associated with each other on some level. And, this really doesn't matter, except for one critical factor. If Google cross references the links and they link to each other, Google is likely to disable Google Adsense. If you're not using the Adsense program, then no problem. And, I have no idea if the 2 would ever be linked, just a suspicion that it's possible.

Comment by JenSocial on July 6, 2010 at 7:47pm: Hi The Douglas Archives,
Not sure what's happened here on the TOS you provided. They (Developers of these 2 platforms in discussion) probably changed the TOS you provided, as of today. I just looked and this is what I read:
"Social Paradox provides a non adult software platform (the "Social Paradox Platform") that enables users 13+ to browse, join or create Social Networks ..."

Everyone,
First, for the record, I don't consider anyone blind or trying to cause trouble here. IMHO, this is a simple misunderstanding, no more, no less.
Here's the deal. There is a very good chance that the TOS for the Adult platform WAS the same as the one for the non-Adult platform -- accidentally. Or, the links were screwy. If someone like the Douglas Archives accessed the page another day before it was fixed, he would still see the old page in cache - - quite possibly. :-)

Can we please drop the conversation about the parody versus paradox. The tone of this conversation is not the way we usually discuss things on JenSocial.

I realize a misunderstanding has taken place here. Let's accept that, and move to our next topic.

Thanks!
Jen

Comment by Friends of Angela Lansbury - Bet on July 6, 2010 at 7:20pm: I tried that. Didn't fix the problem.

Comment by Friends of Angela Lansbury - Bet on July 6, 2010 at 6:23pm: Forest, I am having a problem with forum and group tabs. They seem to go to the one same tab which is Forum tab. What gives on that?
