Regardless of one's age, this forum is generally not a good way to meet someone IRL, due to security concerns, regardless of your age, as someone you meet may do serious harm to you in trying to learn your private keys/seed.
Absolutely right, and I also agree with you that there should probably be a rule against declaring oneself to be a minor (though the definition of "minor" varies widely). I don't think this forum has ever had a problem with sexual predators, and I'd still like to see that PM that was sent to OP, but better safe than sorry IMO. Maybe Theymos could create a new rule about that.
Interesting, the post ownership is changed to "Guest". I haven't seen that in years!
That was nice of Theymos to do (though he might have done it out of concern for liability, but either way it was the
right thing to do).
