This is one of your three groups of the sexually explicit genre of anime/manga.
Hentai has a negative connotation to the Japanese and is commonly used to mean "sexually perverted". In slang, it is an insult meaning pervert or weirdo and isn't applied to pornography in Japan. 18-kin, adult manga, and AV are used to indicate pornography.
Hentai anime/manga is focused on sex, the 'yummy parts,' as some may say. It's heterosexual sex, and your homosexual sex is yaoi/yuri.

Get the Hentaimug. Yaoi is a popular term for female-oriented fictional media that focus on homoerotic or homoromantic male relationships, usually created by female authors. Originally referring to a specific type of dōjinshi parody of mainstream anime and manga works, yaoi came to be used as a generic term for female-oriented manga, anime, dating sims, novels and dōjinshi featuring homosexual male relationships.
Yaoi began in the dōjinshi markets of Japan in the late 1970s/early 1980s as an outgrowth of shonen-ai. BL (Boys Love, another term for yaoi) creators and fans are careful to distinguish the genre from “gay manga,” which are created by and for gay men.
The main characters in BL usually conform to the formula of the seme who pursues the uke.

Get the Yaoimug. The second best forum host the Zathyus Network has created, it is founded in September 2002 by Brandon Kopetzky. It is often shortened to IF. According to its terms of service, InvisionFree does not restrict forums on the basis of post, topic, or member number, nor bandwidth, nor will forums be deleted for inactivity. Google AdSense is the site’s main source of revenue; however, users may pay InvisionFree to remove ads from their site, or to make more space available for file uploads. InvisionFree boards are subject to several limitations, though; among them are the inability of the administrator to access the MySQL database directly or to access the board's filesystem via FTP. If you know advanced HTML, you can create custom skins for your forum. You can convert from Zetaboards if you haven't already.

Get the Invisionfreemug. It's usually used with a forum host, with a ridiculously long URL. Forums are used to post messages, but these days are used for support rather than entertainment. Moderators and Administrators usually moderate the forum and even use their ban hammers if necessary.
Forum administrators/moderators usually use their ban hammers too early in terms of infringing the law.

Get the Forummug. Often shortened to ZB, it is another forum software created by Zathyus Network, created by Brandon Kopetzky, the same guy who brought you Invisionfree. Plus, according to its terms of service, ZetaBoards states that they do not restrict forums based on the number of posts, topics, or members, or bandwidth, and never deleted forums for inactivity. It is a modified version of Invision Power Board version 1.3. Zetaboards was made public in March 2006.
Limitations of ZetaBoards include the lack of FTP access, editing restrictions and inability to access the MySQL database directly, as the software is remotely hosted. Also, e-mail notification of new topics, replies to existing topics and notification of new registrants is not part of the standard ZetaBoard package.
Google AdSense is present on all forums to allow for the free cost to forum admins to host their forums on their own domain.
Users now have the option to purchase ad removal for their forum. After board conversions from InvisionFree to ZetaBoards began, multiple bugs and glitches were found among the converted forums. While the Zathyus team informed its users that converting from ZetaBoards back to InvisionFree would not be possible, many forum owners expressed concern on the company website as to the fact that they are unable to return to InvisionFree due to disappointment with the new system or problems arising from faulty code or lack of support for some skins and themes.

Get the Deviantartmug. 'Cloned' means you're surrounded by attackers at all sides, nowhere to run from. Taken due to the fact in the flash game Newgrounds Rumble, if you take the upgrade with the three heads, and you and a clone is taking both of the sides, it means a lot of damage for the victim.
Person 1: OMFG... I just got cloned in GunZ Online.
Person 2: How?
Person 1: By those kstylers. Damn, I need to know how to do kstyle.
