I had someone on a BBS when i was in the 4th or 5th grade that would
have come
to house and picked me up and took me to a motel so I could see real
porn and quote "Mabey we can mess around" I'm so thankfull I did not
take that person up on there offer...Also when i was around that age
I was hit up by an adult multi times on a synchronet system from the
bay area and I actually contacted the SysOp and was told that he had
been doing this to a number of young people and he said he would
look into it.... BBS could be a dangerous place and the internet is
even worse.
Never had any of those issues with our users AFAIK. But we didn't run chat (kinda pointless with only one line), and in those days, the sysop was able to read all messages, including private ones - today's software has capabilities unheard of back then.
I wish transcripts were easily available, because others who had plead guilty had much lower sentences, such as 9 months.I here ya i don't have any trust in the justice system now. though I know a lot of Good people that are first responders including Law Enforcemnet but then again there are always bad apples out there..
