I do ask myself that. Then, and when it comes to advocacy and protecting those in the crosshairs of harmful people/communities, I realize that typing in a gaming forum may not be the best use of our hearts and time. Don't get me wrong, there are people on forums that become really good friends and/or who through a msg or two can help another peep get through a difficult time. Yet, those are very rare instances.

Want to help, I highly suggest sharing your energy, heart, and time with your local communities. Volunteering at a soup kitchen or something along that line, too.

I have been following Chris Hansen's focus on Roblox and Discord. Predatory adults have been using those tools (and many other tools) for years to prey upon children and that these platforms know about that. Online "life" is not a healthy life.

The reason online life is, as you said it, "not a healthy life" is not strictly because online itself is unhealthy, but because you can't literally see people online (unless you two connected via Zoom or some other similar apps). Therefore, literally anyone can come online and be part of any community anywhere. So, predators can be here.

In real life, you wouldn't normally hang out in ghettos or other similar dangerous, filthy places. Nor would you bring your children (or anybody's children, really) to such places. But online, that's a different story. How can you "see" a good, safe place online? Predators can be on any website at any time.

That's why kids shouldn't be allowed online until they're 18 imo. And even then, it's still dangerous for them.

There are felons here right now. I know of one already, and he trolls here and PARD 24/7.

You shouldn't go around slandering people's names just because you don't like someone

He admitted it himself years ago. Before you comment on something you know nothing about, do some research first.

Guess what? Theres more. A Trusted member got caught a few years ago for molesting a girl. He's in jail now. His name is Paparick. You can ask around if you don’t believe me.

It really shouldn’t be that surprising that there are felons here. Nor should it be surprising that they are on here a lot (it is difficult for felons to get a job for one thing, and I know TiStuff is unemployed).
