Is this forum name for real or has the forum been hacked? If so, isn't it a breach of the TOS? (And before any mods fire off a warning to me - check the name of the forum containing The Vent.)

I think it is safe to say the forum has been hacked. I can't see OpaQue allowing something like this, he is much more professional than that.

no the site has not been hacked OpaQue did add that to the site, I talk to him about it. Best thing to do is say you don't like that being on the forums and opaque will most likly change it.

Well I certainly think it is a step in the wrong direction. I thought he was trying to keep a high standard for the forums, no spam posts, quality posts and all the rest. A forum name like that does not convey that sort of message at all.

I'm not fussed about the word itself but more about the lack of consistency. As Avalon says, can't expect people to stick to rules if they see admins or mods breaking them.

What OpaQue should do is edit the same to something like or something like that. I mean it makes more sense and such, and does not use the "bad" words.

Do not take this in the wrong way but it is his forum though he can do what he wants, but yeah changing the word would be most appropriate due to the age range we have and the good standards and practices we want on this forum as well.

I thought www.trappedinshit.com was for real. It didn't work though. But it's kindda weird. Why the name?

Avalon, please refrain from assuming right away the forums have been "hacked", it might scare some people.
Because in fact, OpaQue did actually do this, here's his post in a topic I created;
With such negative feedback I'm sure he'll probably change it.

The name does have a bit of profanity in it, but when I asked to other people, they all found it very Catchy and funny! I hope, they take it in that way.
www.trappedinshit.com is in progress and will be soon pointing to our little vent forum
