[quote=@HeySeuss] There's no particularly good way to verify ages and that's a problem across the board in any online forum community, and that's just a reality of life here, so yeah, pretty much gotta just hope and pray. But we've made it clear that it's against the rules and a bad idea anyway -- if you're underage and deceive a partner and then engage in that stuff and a parent sees it, you could be landing the partner into a shit-heap of trouble. Even if they aren't convicted, because the laws are a gray area, their lives will be seriously disrupted, perhaps permanently. That was, incidentally, a prior conversation over in RP discussion. Hopefully, this sort of thing won't be an issue and we can respect each other's wishes and try to be aware that what we do can harm others. That exhortation won't stop a predator, but we're talking more about someone that's misrepresenting themselves in an RP interest check or online in general more than a predator. So I suppose we'll have to appeal to people to be honest, and we're going to still clamp down on any pedo shit that goes on because that's just a no-brainer. [/quote] What if an RP brings it up, such as the Vikings example, as discussed earlier, but does not go into detail about it? Does the concept itself warrent the hammer, or is it just those who wish to use it to fulfil their sick fantasies?
