Thoughts on wrong virtual couples and what to do?

Featured Replies

to be honest its scary, a while ago I got into it, almost asked a girl that I got to know well to be my runescape girlfriend, didn't, we lost contact, and then I saw "her" about a month later and she was a guy..

Getting another sig

[removed]

I met a couple a week or so ago, and now i'm great friends with both. They're both close to the same age, and despite being in different time zones have indeed met.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some couples are creepy, but not all.

21 may be be too young for some people, but my parents got married at 18. It is still working. However, they are a statistical anomally, so it usually doesn't work out, but the moral of that story is to not let other people tell you that you're too young. I think.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'll be 18 soon and no way am I getting married then. I intend to serve a mission from 19-21 so I can't get married before then. Earliest i could get married is 21 and it might be easy seeing as mormon girls love return missionaries. As for marriages not working out, I hope I pick the right woman, she's supposed to be my eternal partner.

Amen to that. I'm not going to state any religious preference, but I don't believe in divorce and whether my future wife and I hit some bumps I plan to go through it patch things up rather then just ditch them like some other girl. >.<

Okay, well I won't name names unless it's to a Jagex Mod, but I have a slightly disturbing story. So, I'm at blue dragons and one way or another I met two new people I'm going to call Rabbit and Doll. I have no idea how, but within a few hours Rabbit and Doll have turned into a sterotypical "virtual couple". I know they were in different time zones at least because we were talking about what times it was for each of us, so I know they had never met in real life. I got pretty close to both of them and Rabbit trusted me with clue items and such, but after a week or two Doll started telling me details of her life. Some of them including: she had a daughter, she was 34, and Rabbit was 16. I thought something like that would cause them to stop being a "couple", but it didn't. Later, Doll was telling me how she wanted to meet up with Rabbit when he was 18, but less than an hour later she said some things making me think that she'd be okay with meeting him now. That immediately sent up a red flag so I tried to talk some sense into Doll as she seemed like the one I'd be able to reason with. The day after doing this, Rabbit pms me and goes on this rant about me trying to ruin his life and how Doll didn't listen to me. Needless to say, they both blocked me. Now, I'm at a loss of what to do... even if I had gotten them banned, they were already talking outside of Runescape. I feel really bad about this whole thing happening, and I really don't want to see them in the next news story...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you've read this whole thing congrats, now here's where the discussion comes in.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How do you feel about this sort of thing? What can be done if you encounter this? What can I still do about this?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ugh. :wall:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's not your problem, don't worry about it. At least now they're at a loss because of this, and since you reported them, they can get the help they need.

And you took this seriously?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, you mock me for having morals that I use to help me decide how to handle a situation. Maybe you haven't seen this thread, but this kind of thing is a real problem.

Im surprised many people are overlooking the fact that 'Doll' could very well be a male adult over the age of 18, soliciting intercourse from underage boys on the internet. Just because there was a female arrested for doing this does not mean you should overlook the fact that there is, statistically speaking, a much higher rate of males soliciting intercourse then females.

l0l that 16 yr old would get pure abused in school if people found out he was trying to date someone on rs old enough to be his mum :lol:

It's kind of disturbing, but it's alright if they're happy....

 

 

 

Still disturbing though...

I can't have a virtual relationship in RS, I'm already engaged to the Princess of Miscellania... :ohnoes: :ohnoes: :ohnoes:

Live free or die. First option is exhausted, so guess what remains?

i can just see it.... runescape in the news a third time

 

 

 

34 year old woman brutally rapes, murders, and rapes again, a boy of 16 after meeting.

 

 

 

:mom: well he was talking about his girlfriend comin over on runescape and... and... -bursts into tears-

 

 

 

after the murder the 34 year old woman started running through the streets in blue painted armor while holding up a red axe and shouting RAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH

My sister met a man on the internet who said he was 20 and she hooked up online with him, then found out he was a 34 yr old alcoholic, divorced pedophile. I think you did the best you could with what you had. If she was making sexual overtures and threats then you could also have requested Jagex take legal matters. As for 16 being the age of consent in many places, the boys parents could still file statutory rape charges upon said woman. Like many have said we need to realize that many male pedophiles pretend to be females so as to gain a boys trust. And vice versa. Using a "child" as a buffer to gain trust is one of the many ways to get close and start a relationship. And lets face it people, a 16 yr old/ 34 yr old relationship is unwise anyway. Especially if she has children and has never met this person, or even if she has its not healthy. She could end up raising another "child". I myself married at 18 had 2 children by the time i was 20. My husband wasnt a good father,husband,provider, and I lost my children to the state. So there are things she could lose as a result of the relationship. you did all you could and were capable of doing. Nothing more could be asked for or of. As for ruining Rabbits life, he probably already did that. Dont feel guilty, we cant help some peoples choices and only hope to learn from their mistakes. If you still feel like you could have done something talk with a Social Services worker and see what advice they could give you. Hope this helps you and good luck in finding the peace of mind your looking for. :)

Sorry for seeming "heartless" but the contents of this quote are damn near the funniest thing I've read on TIF. Ok. I'm done now.

I shall take my flock underneath my own wing, and kick them right the [bleep] out of the tree. If they were meant to fly, they won't break their necks on the concrete.
So, what is 1.111... equal to?

10/9.

 

Please don't continue.

I've seen RuneScape weddings before. I've actually attended one. I find it disturbing because they don't even know each other... However, if I know somebody is in danger, I will notify JAGeX right away.
