I can pretty much guarantee you won't gain members so it'll be a 'safe' place. People don't join based on filters. I suppose you could put up some sort of argument that board rules will help members new to forums but it's equally acceptable to PM members should they break minor rules and teach proper etiquette. Obviously, everyone knows not to post around going "PENIS PENIS PENIS" so it doesn't seem to be that big of a problem. Of course, there could be other reasoning that Sith has that I didn't use.
