Regarding Chat or Forum posts. You can always click to view the member’s profile before you reply or chat with them. But of course that member could be lying about their age. So it’s really just a matter of personal judgement. I just need to do all I can as the website owner to let you all know the steps I’m taking to help with this issue. It goes without saying that if you do chat with a minor, or anyone else for that matter, keep the content of your communication to a very safe level. Untill you REALLY know the person (and who does if you’ve only met online), do not put yourself in a situation where you’re talking about inappropriate stuff with someone you think is over 18, but could turn out to be a minor OR worse, an FBI agent posing as a minor!


Just keep it clean, play nice and respect everyone on the site. I think scuba divers in general are pretty good about that so I don’t expect too many problems down the road.


Thanks! Greg.
