March 28, 201016 yr As far as morals and values go, does anyone think it's weird that a forty-something year old man resides in a forum of predominantly teenage and young adult users? In particular, in the real world, what would be made of such a person interacting with young teenage girls? What would their parents think? What do we as a forum, a community and as individuals think? Do we not mind because, on the whole, this forum is faceless, with people from places large distances from each other? Is it just all a bit of fun? Or is it slightly disturbing to think that such a person freely roams such a site talking to girls young enough to be his daughter. Is this not something which is ingrained in internet etiquette as wrong? Is it not something that parents, councils, communities, task-forces, governments, devote time, resources and money to explaining is a danger within the realms of the internet. Whether harmless or not, in open society, in the real world, would such a situation, a middle-aged man talking to random teenage girls not seem odd, creepy or disturbing? Fundamentally, is apathy and inaction, naivety and complacency factors in the ability of such a person to continue doing what they are doing? I'd like to hear what people think about this. Whatever you have to say on the topic would be appreciated to get an idea, a consensus on the feelings of the board.
March 28, 201016 yr I'm going to be coming back here in 10 years and people will still be talking about this issue.
March 28, 201016 yr look, I'm not a fan of mark. But if you're going for laughs, you're not funny, and if you're being serious, you're just stupid.
March 28, 201016 yr This thread is stupid. Everyone's just going to get pissed at each other. I don't mind Mark, I just hate that everyone hates each other. My dad is 40 and comes on this forum. People don't hate him.

People don't hate him. Well if everyone hates each other, then you hate him and he hates you.... sorry, I just felt like being a complete smartass.
March 28, 201016 yr I think it's weird. But I don't think it's any worse for an adult to try to be friends with a teenage girl than it is for a 20 year old to be a complete ass to teenage girls, calling them retards, etc. Have a little integrity.
March 28, 201016 yr OH MY GOD IS MARK YOUR DAD?!?!?!?!??? *facepalm* No. My dad is like "Itsme4now" or something. He only has like 5 posts but everyone seems to like him.

March 28, 201016 yr I hate it when nobody argues. it would be boring otherwise. And i don't find it too weird. I think may return in 23 years ( i think, brain cannot function at 3am D: ) and talk to teenage boys. but i doubt they'd be many here. :sad:
March 28, 201016 yr We should totally all come on here in like forty years and see how it's changed :laugh3:
March 28, 201016 yr and die at the same time :heart: That'd be fucking weird if we all did D: We're a cult.
March 28, 201016 yr I don't want to get old though. D: Unfortunately, it's not really a matter of opinion :( :shrug:
March 28, 201016 yr We're not a cult. Nick, this is your chance to start a cult. Don't blow this oppurtunity.
March 28, 201016 yr Unfortunately, it's not really a matter of opinion :( :shrug: FOREVER YOUNG I WANA BE FOREVER YOUNG lol.
