Or this site could make it impossible for over 18 and under 18 to communicate.

That would be the likely outcome, one 18+ and one U18 account. Maybe you yourself have already done this. :shifty eyes:

I would like to suggest two straight forward enhancements to the site that would not limit the freedom that current exists on here:
1. Make displaying of the age compulsory. I know that people can rort this but at least there has to be a deliberate act to do so. 2. Create a landing page that you have to click through. This would enable messages such as "The rules of this site are..." to be displayed and acknowledged. Been an interesting discussion, thanks for raising it Jessie :-)

If the worry is underage exposure to s/M and potentially harmful relations then get rid of the risk- get rid of the s/M area completely. If the worry is about creepy dudes (let's be honest) being creepy let's deal with that. gD can either change its model or people who use it can protect themselves. Imagine a person who goes to the beach to tan, doesn't use sunscreen, gets burned, then complains about how much the beach sucks. The complaints here sound a lot like that person at the beach. You don't have to be here. You can protect yourself. You can not get burned. The problem isn't the beach, its the person at it and the problem isn't gD its the people using it. I want to stop the sun from burning people, and I wish creepy dudes would disappear. Therefore, I take precautions. I use sunscreen -I don't talk to creepy people. I do wear a hat- I look at profiles. I sit in the shade and drink lots of water- I don't engage in s/M relations. Try it out. Be sun smart- be internet savvy. If the creepy dudes are a problem, report them, block them and do not talk to them again! |

I'm not an IT person but I would envisage that when you go to www.getdare.com you hit a page that asks you if you want to proceed further and has the "rules" text. By clicking through you move to the existing screen and also agree to adhere to the rules. This is a bit simplistic I know but I'm sure some clever person could make this work.

I disagree with most people that have posted.
I DON'T think that people should be forced to display their age. HOWEVER I think some of jessie's idea's would be very helpful (eg) colour coded for users - Under / Over 18) This would give anyone NO EXCUSES for asking S/M to underage users provided the rule is clearly stated. After all do you really need to know that a user is (example) 37 and not 24. You can easily ask when talking if it's important to find out. Would you think differently about someone if you knew their age. ALTERNATIVE SUGGESTION (may be a large thing to implement, if possible) A traffic light system for people wanting S/M (bubble) Green = Available / looking Amber = Already taken / not interested Red = Underage / Not interested Black = Not selected. You would then be able to see (in chat / of profile / of posts) if a user is worth your time targeting. Also would be useful to find users for advice if needed (Amber) Some people must get frequently asked for S/M that are not interested, and again people must that are already taken / in a relationship. At the same time this may help the people that are looking (green) as people won't be afraid to ask fearing that they would get there head bitten of (All under 18 = automatically marked as RED) - Also would be required to fill in when making new users profiles and information about it Just a different suggestion, based around the original question asked, however understand may not be an easy thing to be implemented. Love Rachie x x x x

Rachie I really like your idea. When I posted for ages to be displayed, it wasnt so Id know the exact age but just a way to know if they were over 18. This is definitely a better suggestion so people dont have to post their age but everyone still knows whether they are over 18 or not.
RACHIE EDIT Can't take full credit from that, as Jessie's suggestion was similar to this, however thank you

Rachie, I ADORE your idea. I really don't care to know actual age, just need to know if they are plus or minus 18. I great solution, really.
