well i certainly didnt think that this would become such a hot topic. :o and id like to point out some of the things that have been said incase you didnt read the rest of what was said. very well said might i say, i agree with this completly and think that things like asking what county you live in, your age and if you are a boy or girl are not going to put you in much danger, how ever if some one starts asking you about your phone number, real name etc. you should just report and ignore them simple as that. i think that by any chance you are cought out by this and end up banned you can simply make an apeal to jagex to make them understand the situation and if they deem you as not being one of these bad people then you will be happy as larry. i agree that asking a player what country they live in, what age they are and other things like that eg. "what music do you like?". because this is how we can relate to one another. i think that just like in real life you should be aware of "stranger danger" and think "why is this player asking all these questions?". as for what axel_phx said about making personal details up i'll start a topic based on that. just to see what every one thinks about that. if a stranger starts going on like this dont sit there and be interigated, ask them qustions to get them off balence eg. stranger:how old are you? player: how old are you? thats what id do. 8) thanks to all of you that have hopefully saved my account and a few others along the way. i hope that covers every thing related to personal details and getting banned because for asking of them, but one more thing and the most important of all HAVE A GOOD LONG LOOK AT ALL THE RULES AND THINK WHAT THEY MEAN because you should know. :wink:
