- that's the thing, though, Subeta IS NOT A KIDS SITE. We are not Neopets here, we are not geared toward what you call KIDS. Age 13+ ONLY. You basically want Subeta to BRIBE the users not to report items that are NOT illegal in the first place to the news?! Are you really serious right now?

'Kay even excluding CWs, there's trunks, angelic potions, infinity berries...
You're still talking tens of thousands of dollars.
And even if Subeta did get "bad publicity" from releasing kinky items (when similar ones have existed for literally a decade) I can imagine the media would get a kick out of saying they tried to bribe their users with free currency to keep it quiet.
Look at the most recent poll for peoples ages there is hardly ANYONE 13 in that most are 16+, we all grew up with this site.
And ALSO the site doesnt need to offer compensation to anyone period, as a survivor I totally understand I have been triggered from a film that didn't give a warning that, a scene like that was going to be in the film. People are allowed to voice their opinions on items they don't like but they don't need to offer money and such to those that dislike the items. I do feel for victims and such it is terrible that they are reminded but, the request for these items were made with 0 complaints against it until they were actually released. I like the new items because honestly we have far less kinky stuff on here than anything else and what better to match than survival?
A lot of this forum seems to be backpedaling comments tbh
"I want them to bribe us so no one goes to the news with this story." This is getting wild.
If you think this is bad, you should have seen Subeta back in the day when it was down EVERY Saturday morning. Yes, the forums and the SB being shut off was an inconvenience to some/a lot of users, but to demand CSC items/GA time for it is a little far out there.
Compensation seems like a bad pr move. Just raise the joining age to 16+, nobody younger joins usually anyways. I honestly don’t know why the starting age is so low to begin with?
Please keep the fact that I've only started seriously playing Subeta for... idk my bathouse streak is 22 days so I guess that long.
I agree with above that I think Bug did a great job pulling everything together and I really appreciated the message on the forums page from Bug stating that it would be fixed ASAP and that they knew how important forums are. I also don't have a problem with the kinky items, because I'm 1. an adult and 2. not a parent of a child on this site, so I have no reason to be offended for someone else. Also, sorry to those who were trigged by the items, sending you all internet love. <3
I DO have to say though, I am generally disappointed in how buggy and laggy the site is, from the 22 days of me actively playing I feel like there have been more 'bad' days than good when it comes the site- even if it is restricted to one place. Even without the lag and forums being down today, there are still small things like the Rift wasn't reset properly so it could be used again today. It's a small thing but it really is frustrating to deal with, especially since I'm new to a lot of the events here and experiencing them for the first time (survival not included but I think I kind of tried to participate the first year I joined?).
I think the coders do their absolute best and I appreciate the communication, but I can't say I disagree with OP about possibly seeking new coders or volunteer coders. I understand financial issues but I believe volunteers is an interesting discussion-- there are lots of people who love subeta and also have some sort of coding knowledge.
Also I gotta say I'd take 5 free cash shop items... I don't think we deserve them at all, but I'm greedy and like the vanity items. /s
How the hell is Subeta going to find money for more coders if they have to lose on tons of CSC as compensation?
This does not compute.
Also, my sister is a journalist for a major network in my province.
I'm just gonna tell her about the kinky items tomorrow. Might even show her that thread, hell. :D
OOPS THERE GOES YOUR BRIBE LEVERAGE. The media WILL know about it, and it will absolutely just LAUGH IT OFF. Because this is such a ridiculous thing to get upset by.
:) We have plans to extend the holiday. and I talked about it earlier and I wanted to make sure we had a good chunk of stability before extending. did a great job keeping open communication with y'all and I'll address all the things he did in the post when the holiday gets extended.
If you don't like items that are released, you can always block the images (like some suggested in the news post) or just not use them. We're not going to give y'all free cash shop items over the kinky items. When we give out CSC, it's generally as a THANKS FOR BEING HERE SO LONG (previous firesides) or I'M SORRY WE MESSED UP SO BAD (lol that one luminaire tree gift fiasco).
Thanks for extending the event!
But perhaps put a trigger warning news post for the new items or any kinky items in the future. I mean, you did so with Bubbles' murder.

If a reference link is in there, you sure bet it's mine, I dealt with her in the 30 past years, I should be the one to reap the benefits! :D :D :D
You know, usually when I have some problem with an event, it's usually with the way staff handled some problem. But this time around staff did a fantastic job! It's the players I'm massively disgusted with and disappointed in.
I was fine with the kinky items - your kink is not my kink, but your kink is okay, and all that - even thought releasing them was kind of funny until I read the monumental trash fire that was the comments section in the news. That was a big fucking mistake. I should have known better than to do that. Now I hate seeing them simply because they brought out the worst in everyone, whether they were comfortable with them or not, and seeing how horrible everyone was to everyone else was enough to kill my enthusiasm for the entire Survival event stone dead. Probably going to wind up sitting most of it out, until I can forget I saw that whole mess.
Sorry I went off topic OP, I was pissed and just had to get that off my chest. I won't do it again.
Subeta loves you guys!
Bathory is hungry for MORE MORE I SAY. - If you think you are unattractive just remember you look like your ancestors, and hey all of them got laid-
That is NOT needed either. As Amber so wisely said, Ad block it or find another way to block it, or just don't buy the items. Stuff in the news does not need trigger warnings.
- WE LOVE YOU. <3 On behalf of those of us here on Subeta with actual common sense, I apologize for this entire thread. I didn't write it but I apologize that you guys have to put up with this.

yo here's some custom css if someone doesn't want to see the kink items and doesn't want to use adblock:

display: none;
}
this doesn't stop avatars wearing the items from showing and also doesn't work on pet profiles tho ;;
Not gonna waste my time reading this thread, but I saw your icon, happy birthday!
I would blur instead of removing the image, just so nothing goes wrong in shops/vaults/inventory if you actually have the item.
Just copy/paste the item urls, and set blur level /** censor specific item **/
.hover-item[src="https://img.subeta.net/items/clothing_surv_dog.gif"], .hover_item_preview > img[src="https://img.subeta.net/avatars2/b_face_Surv_Gimpdog.png"] {
filter: blur(3px);
}
/*--optional click-to-disable */
.hover-item[src="https://img.subeta.net/items/clothing_surv_dog.gif"]:active, .hover_item_preview > img[src="https://img.subeta.net/avatars2/b_face_Surv_Gimpdog.png"]:active {
filter: none;
}
test it here
Yeah.., nope. Back to kissing, 'cause I think the kink is cool, and I need 'em all!
thank you! c:
and oo that's rly neat actually! o: at first i wanted to try and replace the actual item images with something like but couldn't get it to work and it's too early in the morning to bother 😂
