Grooming, blackmail, extortion.
See what I said about emotionally manipulative assholes. Â It's a common tactic even against adults, and it's a known tactic used against minors by predators a LOT. You see this sort of shit with charismatic sociopaths as well.
You don't forget it after you see it happen to someone. It's why I said make a lot of friends. Don't focus, don't orbit one person. If you aren't being allowed to or are being manipulated into avoiding contacting/playing with others outside a clique by one person, it's a red flag.
That's a fair point, but I think the kind of person that would end up in that situation has a higher probability of not following this rule to start with:
Quote:4) DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES use the ERP or even just RP in general to fulfill a need you are missing in real life - whether that is sex, romance, or anything else. Â And DO NOT RP with someone who is clearly using you to fulfill their need.
Though that doesn't make it their fault, it's still the assholes doing the social engineering fault.
True, but it's easier to recognize once it's known to you.
Also it's not social engineering, or a pick up game. Â that really downplays the consequences of this sort of really terrible behavior. in the context we're addressing, it's strait up sexual predation. Â It's fucking horrifying.
(Notice I have Views on this. Â Because Reasons.)
