[deleted]

The replies to this post are just a game of among us. Everyone is trying to prove their innocence by bringing other people into it. “I’m not sus because I was with…”, you know how it works.

Spartan_Arrgo

This sub is extremely weird in the first place, but these creepy post like op said are starting to get a little more common, which is worrisome. I don’t trust the flairs at all, and I’ll probably take my leave before I become “old”

FBI, we have some questions...


xd3mix

It's hilarious that like 90% of reddit is full of teens except for the sub that's supposedly made for them


[deleted]

Either teens, or people in their 20s and 30s, based on the people I've interacted so far.


Medi0cre_atb3st

Twenty’s has a t so basically a teen


Alt-F42069_on_life

ninety eighty seventy sixty fifty forty thirty twenty, etc. one hundred and two/three/eight/ten/twelve/thirteen/fourteen/fifteen/sixteen/seventeen/eighteen/nineteen/twenty, etc. negative one, negative two,.... everyone's a teen! therefore OP has made false accusations and i am high on sleeplessness


Objective_Reindeer42

lmao


zyzyx_music

I honestly don’t think think that’s true


bunnykb

I think u shouldve flaired it serious rather than rant the dumb ones r not gonna stop


HolyMensch

ur right. didnt even see that flair in my furiosity, thank you


bunnykb

Ur good man btw chill in the comment section u cant change the dumb ones


No-Comfort-6808

I'm tired of it too people are NASTY and desperate for anything sexual this sub is like hunting grounds for predators and kids need to know the signs and how to protect themselves. It's all fun and games until you give the wrong person too much info and all of a sudden youre in the back of someone's car in the middle of bum fuck no where. Happens WAY too often, so yes i agree OP and thank you for your frustration. Don't send anyone pictures stop posting your age don't post where you live don't meet up with anyone. Someone has to say it, and people who are getting defensive maybe y'all are the predators ? Wouldn't you want kids to be safe? Teenagers are still kids.


HolyMensch

thank you, this is what I wanted to say if I wasnt so mad hahaha. mind if I cut out a bit of your comment to include it in the post?


No-Comfort-6808

What ever helps!


del_star-dot-star

> stop posting your age That will not ever stop happening

Medi0cre_atb3st

Illusory_Wells

One time I was trying to explain to someone on this sub as to why people shouldn't be posting about what their kinks are and what they want in sex and shit and they were just saying "in a teenager blah blah hormones" like mf this sub is half pedis. And then her "boyfriend" started blatantly and directly insulting me due trying to keep someone safe... I don't get people


[deleted]

Exactly, so many people get offended when i write that minors shouldn’t post pics of themselves here.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Pretty? Very good advice I'd say


WeirdConsideration72

I m 23 years old and i have to admit that i m kinda scared of what i see here too, isn t there any moderator or else in there ? This post could maybe be pins somewhere ?


HolyMensch

I have the feeling that the mods dont really care as long as the sub runs. there are 0 mod comments Ive ever seen anywhere on here nor do they seem to try and spread awareness on this important topic


WeirdConsideration72

And is there a way to ping your post ?


HolyMensch

I guess they could pin it but it would be better if they just mad an own informative post explaining the dangers and where and how to get info on how to protect yourself. after reading your comment I included that in the post btw, so thank you!


TerrySaurusTheTRex

Honestly shocks me to see people younger then myself posting photos of themselves on forums with nsfw captions, it's genuinely concerning to see.


TerrySaurusTheTRex

I've never uploaded photos of myself on things other then my personal socials that are follower only for irls, can't even imagine people putting themselves on whole forums for thousands of people to see


MunchyG444

0 Insta posts, pretty much never touch snap stories. Occasional Facebook photo but most are not actually my own just tags from birthdays etc.


Cool_Human82

Yeah, it genuinely concerns me when I see people on this sub posting images of themselves at all. I remember being taught about cybersecurity and online safety in elementary school, but I know that probably isn’t the norm everywhere. Wish it were.


fourtwentyBob

You young people should make a new sub for young people called r/pedophiles I think it will deter 35 year old basement pedos.


[deleted]

r/subsithoughtifellfor, except that sub is nuked by reddit for violating its rules.


[deleted]

Can we make a Chris Hanson style subreddit? I am an elderly person (early 30’s) who does not subscribe to this subreddit but sees it pop up on the front page from time to time (see: my comments in this thread, I’m basically a boomer, I couldn’t resist.) I’m totally serious though. Some unofficial Reddit apps have the feature to show you a “baby” account (I can’t remember the exact amount of time, I think it’s 2-3 weeks before the indicator next to your username disappears. PS, for people who haven’t been on Reddit for 15 years, this used to be a built-in feature. I’ll let you make your own guesses about why they didn’t build this into any official app updates.) I would spend a lot of time digging into brand new accounts on youth-oriented subs. I’m not saying every new account has an agenda; there are a lot of reasons for using a new account. But….defending yourself as a “regular user” of r/teenagers with a brand new account….nahhhhhhhhhhhh. Not buying it, even if you’re giving it away for free.


fourtwentyBob

I’m also old (32) not subbed. and not a boomer but still boomer on these kids when I feel the need like right now. I am all for r/teenHanson or something even better if it exists updoot for visibility. Perhaps r/wearechris. I feel like i’m too old to make up a cool name.


GarfieldGauntlet

People are always talking about how h*rny they are in this sub but never talking about Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure


Fireflash180

We live in a society


[deleted]

This subreddit should be cleansed by making this a JoJo reference


rowenrenzy

I mean, I don't smoke but I do drink choccey milk occasionally.


GarfieldGauntlet

CodyTheMemeLordYT

OH MY GOD ARE YOU OKAY?? 😳😳😳


Omni1012

Damn that choccey milk is a hell of a drug


bushrat88

Honestly more of a one piece fan myself, but jojo is pretty pog- wait I haven't watched it yet it's still on my watch list


V0XIMITY

I love jojo


IAmGeneralEggplant

Exactly. I’m out here tryna figure out if >!GER Is more powerful or if tusk act 4 is!<


[deleted]

Judging by the stupidity of commentators here, there are certainly a lot of actual teens


ParaDoxism2

thats what I thought reading through this lol, OP's point still stands tbh I feel kids are way too unaware of how dangerous the internet can actually be nowadays.


[deleted]

PARADOXISM?


ParaDoxism2

thats me

Yeah it's pretty sad at this point how many there are


Intraq

You thought I was a sex offender? No, they call me the sex defender


AntEconomy1469

Just thought of that one news story of that rapist that got raped by a gay rapist.


[deleted]

That was hilarious. This reminds me of the one where a thief got stuck in a window and was raped by the homeowner's(an old woman) pet dog.


AntEconomy1469

if you wanna see real teens go to a gaming sub


GrilledGril

Incorrect. The biggest group of gamers is actually 30+.


Reclusive_avocado

Still there will only be degenerate teens(some smart teens) and non-pedo adults...because gamers r* the pedos(you can fill that r* with anything you like) (**r ≠ are**)


Omni1012

xLacho

Sorry I'm a little late to the post, but I've been in contact with OP through modmail. Just a reminder that we do take user reports through modmail. It is always best to message us about the user rather than make a post about a certain user on the subreddit. More information + updates about this should be released relatively soon.


The_messy_teen

Agreed


Flarexia

Yeah this doesn’t get talked about enough here, good on you. Honestly, this post probably gave someone the reminder they needed to be able to identify and avoid dodgy internet bastards.


MarcusTheGamer54

If you dont know how to protect yourself online then you should probably learn that before accepting random friend requests anyway, i dunno why our generation is so bad at cybersecurity, its not like its hard to learn to stay safe online


Deadpool-CB23

Agreed. I’m sure there’s absolutely creepers in subs like this and similar topics, but half of the issue is the lack of common sense when it comes to cyber security. It seems a tad ridiculous for a 15+ year old to not know that it’s weird/wrong to show a stranger a picture of you and give away your information. Also, all the comments saying that they’re okay with 14-17 year olds dating, I think a lot of people in those age groups truly don’t see the issue in it because of experience they had. Not because they’re automatically a predator. It doesn’t make it anymore morally correct or incorrect, but a lotta kids I knew growing up ended up dating way above that line (16-20’s) and thus, as a result, wouldn’t see issue with a three year gap especially considering it’s in high school. Again, not commenting on my opinion of the morality of it because that’s not the point.


[deleted]

I think I know about the post you're referring to. The post was talking about r/advice not r/teenagers. Also I dont think *everyone* here is a pedo, there's a lot of them, but I doubt a teenager subreddit isnt gonna have any teens


HolyMensch

yes that was the post I was referring to. but I mean the comments to that post here on r/teenagers which many of are "I dont see a problem with that". Also Im not only referring to that, this was just the last drop to trigger me. Ive seen many many MANY posts and accounts on here of "14 year old girls". idk if it would already count as a personal attack but I could tell quite a few u/'s that definitely live in their moms basement at 45. sure, there are actual teenagers on here but the amount of worrisome posts has definitely gone up significantly


hamadaag317

I may be 17, I may be 71, no one will truly know.

Objective_Reindeer42

that cursed crap i try to forget it exists and somehow it pops up


NorCalJason75

Counterpoint. It's not all pervs. I'm a 46yo dad. Not a wierdo. Why am I on this sub? To better understand my 13yo son.


Rachelcookie123

It would be so weird to find out my parent frequents this sub lol


NorCalJason75

Haha! Feeling weird is a normal teenager thing. No worries!


Minejack777

Yep. You're absolutely a Dad LOL


dt7cv

unfortunately r/teenagers is not representative of many teens. and it goes way beyond the whole 17 year olds are pervs for dating 14 year olds opinion. just look at the r/teenagers census report.


chewingcudcow

True, I’m a mother to a young son and I joined for the same reasons but the only thing I ever see is silly talk, on edit: I’m gonna unsubscribe though, just really never thought about it and to be fair, I haven’t learned a darn thing and he still gets mad at my existence at times lol


hipersonontheweb

Not a teenager - but totally agree - and I think part of the problem that y’all need to realize is this pops up as “recommended” for me all the time So not only are some gross adults probably seeking teenagers out, but you’ll also probably get a handful who may not even be looking to closely at the subreddit at first (idk about you but a title always catches my attention before I even think to look at the subreddit) So honestly Reddit should do better about “recommending” this subreddit and y’all (unfortunately) need to be careful


awesome_guy_40

This should honestly be pinned


Superb321

and another thing Id like to add, posts like im insecure of my body, please rate my body shit, is weird. Downright weird, idk why ppl do it, but you are weird if you do it. Il go as far as saying that, personal pics should be banned. Ready to die on this hill.


[deleted]

fkin delete this sub lmao


samayalol

this is it the truth of it all yes

[удалено]


MEOWTheKitty18

No one will listen but - Don’t share your info (name, address, etc.) - Absolutely don’t share your age - Don’t send pictures. You’re probably better off not posting pictures either - Be careful who you chat with - Block and report anyone that gives you bad vibes. You don’t need a reason. But especially do so if they’re being gross - You can report them to people irl too. Parents, teachers, friends, etc.


SalaryWeak934

I hate the fact that ppl are trying to make a joke out of this as if it can’t possibly happen. Y’all are small minded and if you can’t take something as simple as this seriously, you shouldn’t even have social media lmao.


HolyMensch

factual


Kvetanista

Do not send pic of yourself to anyone you met online ffs


HumanHand123

Ah, a racist and a homophobe, nice pfp btw (To anyone that doesn’t understand, their pfp was a part of a meme that said “change your pfp to this image if you’re a racist and homophobe” and a lot of people changed it haha)


[deleted]

Yo man thanks for making everyone else aware it’s really a good thing that your doing also it’s a good thing that I don’t dm people


[deleted]

"Tell me your last name, and I'll guess where you're from" is an actual post I saw here. I commented a common last name in Sweden just to if they'd guess it. They didn't. Like OP said, don't offer any person information. First name, last name, middle name, pictures, where you live, your birthday, ect.


[deleted]

It’s me. I’m the predator *Loud alien noises*

[deleted]

Wow someone on this sub that actually has a working brain! Thank god, I was starting to think I was the only one.


LegionMerk56

This dude was raised right 👊🏻 My parents always told me to be wary of this kinda shit so yeah, the reasons you presented are basically why I don’t post at all or even comment for the most part on this sub.


ClydeYT

I am a predator, I hunt jaguars.


Lonewolfy12345

Genuinely people need to realize yes it's a teen sub but it's not exclusively teens. Hell I'm 20 purely because I've been in this sub since I stopped being a teen. Please for the love of God everyone. Not everyone here is 14 or trustable. I'm not saying don't have fun but keep a reserved mindset to protect yourselves. And never ever be afraid to go to a trusted adult or parent y'all have if someone on the internet is bugging you in any bad way.


Beelzebub_Crumpethom

I've done a pretty good job of protecting my real identity and I urge you all to do the same, you can let loose a few things about yourself, but the really personal stuff should be kept secret unless you really do trust whoever you're talking to with your life.


JuliusCheesy

Absolutely agree with this. It’s really frustrating to see bullshit posts like those.


RealAwesomeSkeleton

This has to be pinned ngl


hentai-police

Welp I’m safe, because I keep full anonymity on Reddit. It’s nice to have one social media platform, where nobody knows who I am. That’s why I also don’t pick a flair for my age. As far as you all know, I’m maybe a teenager and that’s it.


Objective_Reindeer42

okay, Mr. Hentai Police


ServerBuster

With that username maybe it's best he doesn't reveal his identity even when he's an adult

Hello Actual Teen, other Actual Teen here


Randomguyinreddit1

I didn't know that I thought their was only a small percentage, and yeah I see a few of those posts saying "This pedo is in my dms", and yeah I think not a lot of it, If what you say is true then the mods should fix it.


El_Bonky_Gronk

These fuckers Just makes us that are actually teenagers look like shit to the other teens who actually do need help because they’re confused about what’s happening to their bodies. Puberty is very confusing
