LETSBEEF HAS BEEN AROUND FOR 13 YEARS AND THERE HAS NEVER BEEN AN ISSUE OF THAT NATURE, BUT, YOU ARE RIGHT WITH THA POINT OF PROTECTING OUR ADULT MEMBERS AS MUCH AS OUR YOUNGER ONES ESPECIALLY WIT THA WAY THA WORLD IS TODAY....... BUT TBH THAT WOULD BE DOWN TO X, LIKE I SAID I DONT KNOW THA INs AN OUTs OF INTERNET LAWS SO DONT GET YA PANTIES IN A TWIST LOL

13 years was a long time ago. Internet privacy laws have drastically changed from back then. And even back then, I don't necessarily believe it was a positive thing to have a userbase consisting of primarily children. I feel like relying on the past basis isn't always the best approach. The U.S. used to segregate blacks from whites, for example. And at the time, it was viewed as totally acceptable. But, was it appropriate? Absolutely not. I realize that this example is a lot more extreme than it is in regard to LB. But, the point remains the same, the past doesn't always denote the best solution. And that just because that's how it was back then, doesn't mean that that's how it should have been at the time, or should be in the future.
