where everything is hosted on one archive but if you're not logged in you have to click a button saying you're over 18 and if you are logged in you have to be over 18 - or say you're over 18 - to see R18(NC-17) material.
Yeah. If there were any sort of age restriction, it shouldn't be anything more than that. Most people are not going to be keen for a new archive if they can only post their adult fic locked to members only, and a lot of people will refuse to link, rec, etc. fic that's locked or passworded in any way, so it's just a bad situation all around, especially when there are plenty of other archives that don't make you jump through hoops (a new archive is going to attract people by offering more options, not fewer!).
