    In this forum you can find stories of porn addiction, severe depression and anxiety, families who got destroyed and so on.
    "NoFap" doesn't translate all the seriousness of this subject. It looks like a bunch of teenagers trying to control their "silly" desire.
    What y'all think?

    nofap used to be a joke, i believe it should not change.
     
  4. But Nofap isn't only revolves porn. It's about sexual and masturbation addictions in general.
    I don't see what's wrong with "Nofap", its short, catchy and to the point.

    at least in my country, "fap" is very childish.
    Like, if someone ask me, I'm not in "nofap". I'm healing from addiction... That's what I would say.

    Care less about the names and labels.

  8. It's copyrighted, I don't think it's gonna change :) Though I personally agree, I've always thought it sounded super childish and not serious.

    Of course a lot of members are younger, but at the same time with the more serious content it could surprise people if they just read it and then those two facts right there indicate the diverse demographics of the site.

    Wasn't it literally created on reddit by some redditors ? :) Childish, cringy, memeish ... that is the fire it was forged in :D

    But yes it won't change.

    It should be something like sex regulation because there's also monkmode which has been known/popular for a long time in this community and recently the introduction of a3bstinence/celibacy for life section on this very forum.

    But calling the forum sexregulation.com would cause a lot of struggling people in here to say the word sex more often than they can manage : ))

  11. Sounds good to me. Addiction is a serious issue, but learning to deal with it without a smile on your face would be a mistake.

    And look at the slogan! "Get a new grip on life" is as absurd as ingenious!
