Why it’s important that Minors do not interact with Adults on Tumblr RP PSA
I’m not gonna sugar coat things here cause let’s face it, RP is fun and all but this fandom and many fandoms deal with adult content and the internets changed heavily from the early 2010s.
I know it feels like there’s a lot of 21+ only blogs out there and that can feel like fandoms and blogs are being gatekept by adults but trust me when I say that it’s for the safety of everyone online that it’s this way. Not just for Adults but for Minors as well.
There’s real consequences that can happen to Adults if they’re caught writing adult themes with children regardless if they knew their age or not. And that doesn’t mean just explicit (sexual) material.
Hiding or lying about your age to RP in a community that for adults isn’t worth it. Period.
You can get people in a major amount of trouble or even jail time and on a sex offenders list if you aren’t upfront with your age. There are laws specifically to protect children online from these kinds of things and even if it isn’t your intention to get someone in trouble it won’t matter to police or a court system.
If you are below the age requirement of a blog then do NOT interact!!!
For the Adults out there, it’s safe to never interact with a blog that doesn’t have their age stated for your own safety, no matter the state or country you live in there is always the potential of having major life altering consequences so it’s better to steer clear.
Be safe, responsible and respectful.
