They definitely were.* did anyone else think the girls in the fashion bits were such smuggos or was that a hateful poor girly problem?
Yeah, I'm surprised that was allowed as late as that.How was that Pen Pal thing allowed I’m pretty sure stranger danger was a thing in the 00’s?
I think stranger danger at that time (from my memory anywya) was literally still a stranger in the street offering you sweets, does anyone remember using chat rooms in the early 2000s? I look back and am horrified by the fact that I was 100% talking to adults who were trying to groom me. Luckily I never ended up giving my address but I came very, very closeYeah, I'm surprised that was allowed as late as that.
I think it was kind of that stage in between. The internet was definitely a thing, and chat sites etc existed by then.I think stranger danger at that time (from my memory anywya) was literally still a stranger in the street offering you sweets, does anyone remember using chat rooms in the early 2000s?

Honestly I don’t even think I could type some of the stuff I saw, but why were we looking at the most horrific crime scene photographs at 12? And why did they block neopets before that!Omg yes! I remember IT lessons quickly trying to click away from horrific accidents etc as they teacher came over
I meT my husband in a chat room 2002, wasn’t really aware of stranger danger….I was quite good at blocking people, tbh my husband was lucky that night I was blocking all night, the night we met ( I was 19 at the time)But that's what I mean, I never remember any stranger warnings about chat sites, I very easily could have put myself into severe danger
I remember having an induction in college and being warned not to look at porn in the library as one guy the year before had and they called in his parents to show what he had been looking atHonestly I don’t even think I could type some of the stuff I saw, but why were we looking at the most horrific crime scene photographs at 12?

I remember someone watching p0rn in an IT lesson too? Like I’m not ancient this is the early 2000s surely the government should have had a better understanding the internet cos iirc they had some blocking technology schools used?
Memory unlocked reading this lol when I was at college there was a guy who was a bit weird and it turned out he had been watching loadsss of porn while in college. I think it was another student who caught him and told everyoneI remember having an induction in college and being warned not to look at porn in the library as one guy the year before had and they called in his parents to show what he had been looking atI think he was suspended

I remember that storyline about Sarah Lou meeting that fella in a chat room in Corrie thinking he was 13. That would of been a good thing for schools to latch onto but I don’t think they ever did.But that's what I mean, I never remember any stranger warnings about chat sites, I very easily could have put myself into severe danger
No one ever said anything as nefarious to me in Habbo as FB, it was difficult for them to do as if you typed any kind of sexual word or swear word it was automatically replaced with "bobba"Ll
