I think it would need more than that.

Someone could register, post and join in for a bit. 6 months later register a 10 year old. Allow 10 year old to use junior forum.

All the time user is a pedophile setting up a profile to abuse our children and use the 10 year olds account.

Re: Can't transfer ackers!

I agree neil, but one safeguard would be to block P.M's to and from junior members so that ALL contacts and conversations will be made in the public domain.

I am sure it would be difficult for Roy to set this up safely, but if he can, the Accyweb would be that much better. (If that is possible )

Re: Can't transfer ackers!

It would be good mate i agree. I just worry about the safety of my 7 year old. He would like to join in I am sure. All he does now is play games logged on as his mum.

I can see it being safer with only public posts - good idea.

Re: Can't transfer ackers!

Although I respect and understand your concerns we have to take in to account that there are a number of younger members already on accyweb without any of these safe guards in place. Obviously there is parental supervision and there’s always almost someone on who knows other members and their offspring.

Too many restrictions, “irrespective of concerns” would remove much of the enjoyment for both children and parents. We need to be safe, but we can’t continue to live in fear of these predators, we know their out there and we all have a duty to protect not only our children but each other. You can put in as many safe guards as you can afford or think about, but people who set out to abuse will find a way through, at the end of the day we are our own best defence, any concerns should be reported to the Administrator and or, the Moderators.
