Until someone finds a way to pass laws against "thought-crime," there is absolutely nothing wrong with what we do here. You know as well as I that the films, videos, and images we talk about here are all legal. You may have noticed how I try to discourage people who want to use this forum to discuss or trade anything illegal like pornography. If THAT was going on here, I think Parsimony (or any service provider) would be well within their rights to close us down ASAP.
From the limited information I have seen, Parsimony evidently closed the other boards after a certain self-styled anti-pedo crusader faked a porn link and complained to Parsimony. One of the two boards was a technical board that meticulously excluded anything erotic; however, it did serve as a place where announcements could be made about the status of the planned return of the Free Spirits sites. The other board was run by our own friend Kabouter. That board had fewer restrictions, but again there was no illegal activity there that I ever saw.
