I noticed a topic was moved to a forum that said you have to have permission to go to. What is that?

It's super secret! Now that you know about it, you must be destroyed!

It's a section for adults only. Same standards apply, just the topics are more adult oriented.

PM Pam to let her know you are 18 yrs old or older and request to have access.

In that vein the official wording:

It's also worth noting that we have some photos posted in that section of our late night youth activities involving digging up bodies in the local graveyards for baptism in our temples, so you might not want to sign up if you are squeamish.

Sounds interesting. Yes, I am over 18 so I think I can handle that. They lock the gates at the local cemetary here so the youth cannot dig them up.

Oh. They don't do that in Utah because most of the graveyard owners and local authorities are mormon themselves.

You must send the message to pam first. Then, she will push that button to allow you to see/post in those areas. It's not an automatic, immediate effect. You must wait for pam to sign in and review all requests. That little cookie can only go so fast.
