And what the article linked to was one guy admitting he was a pedophile, not any evidence of pedophiles preying on other posters. I think that's a really vague line to walk unless you witnessed someone who identified as a pedophile actively pursuing a discussion with a poster known to be under 18.
I don't know a lot about laws related to posting on internet discussion boards, but I picked up the idea somewhere that discussing one's pedophilic urges -- even if it's not pursuing another poster under 18; just discussing it without having a target, so to speak -- would get a board shut down.
I don't know if I'm remembering that correctly, though. It might just be a revenue/advertising thing, like the Google ads thing, where no advertiser wants to give a bunch of pedophiles money.

I want to say "awesome!" but I'm not sure if it is....
I included "totally" because I was surprised it was a thing that had a name. DW thinks I'm bizarre because things like stacked roof tiles or a close up pic of a strawberry make my skin crawl. Even typing that made my skin crawl. Ew.

Oh, you could be right -- I was just extrapolating based on how things usually work, I guess?
It's gross either way. And I think his position of, Eh, just find a new username, is atrocious.
We have rain! Ok, it is light rain and there is lightening, but any bit of rain will help. There may be more rain this evening.

Some things should be against the law to photoshop.

So I'm guessing a gift of something covered in beads would be a bad idea.
Yay, Suzi. Lots of rain~ma for Colorado.
