We have a Gothic category for images of the "Gothic" nature. You may take that as literal or as movementarian as you wish. If yours is of a "left hand path" nature, and WITHIN the TOS, there is also the "Religious/Spiritual" category. Adding a category of forum specifically for Vampiric/Goth/Dark posters is, to be honest with you, a bad idea. Why? Because then, we'd have to cater to everyone else who wants one with their category. We'd have a Christian Right-Wing Forum, a No-Holds Barred Rough It Out Forum, a Dances Naked In Pink Hats Forum, and all kinds of other requests. Believe me, you think your idea is way out there? I'm sure that someone will come up with a stranger request, usually in a matter of minutes. We're all different. Not one of us is so much alike others that it's one big clique. That's what makes the art community in general a good thing. As for hiding behind anonymous posts and threads....that is a bad bad bad bad BAD idea. We've got enough problems with trolls as it is. If you're not brave enough to be yourself online, then why would posting anonymously be a good thing? It facilitates lying, cheating, and hurting others. I'm not saying it is a bad idea. Just not a good idea here. If you think that enough people would want a forum like you're describing, by all means, create one. Purchase some hosting, run your message boards, add some galleries. No one's keeping you from it. It's just that, here, g we have a hard enough time keeping the peace sometimes ;). MorriganShadow Renderosity Moderator
