Just saying, Ocean, not EVERYONE puts their appearance as their profile pic.

And Pups and any user choose whether or not to display their age

Very valid point, though.

Hi, there! (Apologies... I haven't been on the board in a while! Finally have the time to go through it all...)

I've taken a class once on Online Safety and read a bit about it...

Wouldn't it be safer for the younger ones to not be able to display their age at all on their profiles? And also not to show any of their personal information and what they look like on their profiles?

thanks for the update man, if i see any creeps i'll tell ya

If someone even tries, they will regret crossing my path.

Creepy imbeciles. It sickens me.
They will get more than an earful.

A warning to all those weirdos: I'm not one to mess with. You WILL regret it.

Lot of new pups have joined lately, figured I might as well bump this ~~

Oh, I hadn't seen this. I remember one or two instances a loo-oong while back. Great post. Glad to know pups are being looked out for!

I will look out for creeps like that! :0

This is always relevant~

Some people don't want to display age, and that's alright. They don't have to. It would be a little unfair to not give them full access to the site just because of that :/ Also, Pup's have full access but we label them so because we want to protect them and make sure we can tell if certain things are appropriate. We are a friendly site for everyone, and so we try and accommodate all types.

As a side note, this thread was created in light of a recent incident we had. The older member has since been banned, but we don't like that it happened at all and so...an admin put up this warning, letting Pup's know to be cautious and tell an admin if there are advances towards them.
