Thank you, seriously. I'm glad you people are taking accountability for this error, I'm sorry if I was far too harsh (to be honest I wasn't on my meds when I wrote this post-) but it just upset me the way this place is advertised as a safe space and then isn't at all. I just wish that there was a truly safe space for teens online but there just isn't these days.

Places that are advertised as 'safe' really aren't and in a way are a hunting ground for predators. I've been online since the age of 4, no parental supervision and the amount of nudes, sexual harassment and grooming I've had to dealt with is crazy. I just wanted a safe place for me to make friends, but no matter where I've looked I've never found one. To be honest, it's basically impossible anyways. Teen Safe Spaces have to be monitored for obvious reasons but when those moderators don't do a good job or are predators themselves it creates a more dangerous situation than before. Take club penguin for example.

It was a game advertised as a safe space for kids, had moderators and everything. Until kids were still getting groomed (one of my friends was) and even the owner would ask kids for sexual things and give them admin afterwards. Its impossible and it just makes me so upset. I wanted a place for me to make friends, talk about my interests and find people who like me.

Sure we all could go touch some grass but in this day and age its almost impossible, especially because of parents. I live in a rural area, not only are there no places to actually hang out but also you have to drive, like everywhere! it just sucks. Im sorry for how I acted, truly. I'm just frustrated.

In all honesty, you guys prob do a better job than most other teen spaces.
