There are predators in potco just like there are in all social venues. Potco actually is a feeding ground for the kind that prey on kids. There is a security division set up by Disney just for handling them. However, it is so rampant I don't believe they can do enough. Kids need to be protected. Reminding them is important. In an off site guild website I was in..some officers were made super moderators. This gave them access to things like our email addresses and ip addresses. Those can be searched for home addresses. After we found one of members(an officer), to be a convicted kid predator, I left that site.

Its better to be safe than sorry. And, yeah, that kind of thing does happen in potco.

Oh, wow. That's not good. Just asking, did s/he get kicked from the guild?



You just gotta remember these things happen, and don't let it ruin your day.
