jimmy99 100 Report post Posted February 20, 2009 Just noticed that sara_red's profile has been suspended. Anyone know what's going on with that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mod 135640 Report post Posted February 20, 2009 One of the other members here questioned her age so we have asked her to prove her age by photo ID and a validation photo. She claims she is legal age but when this is questioned (especially by a senior member) I must suspend the account. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drlove 37204 Report post Posted February 21, 2009 Just out of curiiosity, what were the circumstances that would cause a member to question Sara's age in the first place? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mod 135640 Report post Posted February 23, 2009 A link was sent to me by PM to a social network site (Like myspace/facebook) and it had her same photos that were used here on the site and a personal profile indicating that she will not be 18 for another 2 months I think it was. The page in question is no longer online so it could be (1) another SP or guy trying to cause a problem for her or (2) it could really be her ad and she is not of legal age. If she is of legal age than she can prove it to me and I will allow her back and add a note to this thread but until that time we must assume she is not of legal age to protect the members and me as I am sure I would have legal ramifications if she was allowed to continue to advertise on here and someone found out that her age was in question (If I allowed it to continue). Hopefully it was a fake personal data sheet with the same photos but either way I am not willing to chance it and I am sure non of the members here are willing to chance it either. Anyone under the age of 18 should not be involved in this business (in fact I still think personally that 18 is way too young but I don't make the laws - many agencies will not hire 18 year olds either and you will find ads for hirring 19+ only so I am not alone in thinking this way) If Sara is of legal age she should send me a email (I gave her my email address) with the requirements that I asked for to prove her age. If she confirms her legal age is over 18 I will announce it here on this thread to reassure everyone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex2006 1071 Report post Posted February 23, 2009 Do you not find that a little invassive? I can understand MOD asking for ID but comming from me whom you don't know from a hole in the wall sonds a little "ify". Do you ladies get offended if a hobbiest ask for ID? I know I would not show my ID with out knowing you for some time. Is it possible to ask MOD if an SP has provided proper ID to confirm age so that I don't get into a bad situation?

Guest W***ledi*Time Report post Posted February 23, 2009 Do you not find that a little invassive? You are not asking to see anything else but just her picture and dob. On a N.S. driver's licence, for example, a well placed thumb hides all the rest. If I ever was refused, I'd be outta there. Playing safe is in both parties' interest, in my experience the ladies know and respect this. p.s. But my favourite invasive part is taking the DNA sample afterwards.

Apex maybe mod would ask for you...that would be alot better...but if he couldn't then it would be best just not to see her if you really think she maynot be the age she is saying.

I'm confused...So, what are the legal ramifications for the hobbiest if he sees her unwittingly (e.g. without knowing she may not be 18 yet - in other words, takes her age claim at face value), or someone decides to see her anyway and takes their chances?? Also, since there is a discrepancy here is it best not to see her at all for the time being? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eastcoaster73 100 Report post Posted February 23, 2009 Well if you arrange the meeting with her online and she's under 18, and your busted somehow, you could get charged with internet luring. Its an odd law in the sense that if you were 30-something...and you met a 17yr old at the mall and somehow picked her up...thats legal...but if you chatted with her online and then met for sex..then its illegal. Its up to the 'adult' to verify age in this case. They also changed the law within the last year to raise the age of consent...which is now 16 when it used to be 14. Even at 16 I "believe" there is a clause that states if one partner is more the 5 years older then the other then its a crime. I'm 'not' advocating at all that playing with 15-16 yr olds is ok..but a mature looking 16 yr old girl who's done up can easily look 18-19. So if Sara is underage...it could be an issue for sure for people who might have met her.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest W***ledi*Time Report post Posted February 23, 2009 I'm confused...So, what are the legal ramifications for the hobbiest You may want to follow the "Canada Law on Prostitution" link at the bottom of this page, through to the Justice Department. Look there for the "Offence - prostitution of person under eighteen" section in the Criminal Code. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mod 135640 Report post Posted February 23, 2009 What happens if I am suspect of an SP's age, what would be the best way of finding out? Ask her to show you ID, don't be surprised if she covers up her home address and real name but if she lets you see the photo and her age that would be the best. My suggestion if she refuses... run away! If she posts on this site, PM me and I will ask her to prove her age to me. I will give her 3 days to do so and if she does not reply back her account will be suspended until she does. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If her age is even remotely questionable you ask her to prove her age to you. It is your responsibility as an adult to ensure she is of legal age. If you are PAYING for SEX or any sexual contact she MUST be over 18 years of age. Be smart and NEVER take that chance - usually the underage sex workers are found on the streets and working with pimps but occasionally they make it online.

AmberWyld 311 Report post Posted February 24, 2009 Like we all do when we shop for anything in life we really want, the onus falls on the buyer. Thus you should always remember the term, ‘Buyer Beware’. This even applies to our line of business as well. As providers, we offer a service for donation, and as dates, you donate for those services. Thus, you should do some homework prior to making that donation. Like buying a large screen TV, you should read the reviews, check the profiles, pictures, statistics, and any other feedback you can find before you decide. Unlike most other goods and services, MOST SP’s offer a no refund policy, so be sure of what you want and require of your SP. This goes for her services, looks, AGE, and so forth. Again, with regard to the ‘Buyer Beware’ policy… It is entirely your responsibility as an adult to ensure she is of legal age. It is entirely your responsibility as an adult to ensure she is of legal age. If you are making a DONATION (pay) for SEX or any type of sexual contact she MUST be over 18 years of age. You DO NOT want to take that chance. Be smart and NEVER take that chance. As MOD had said, most of the underage sex workers are found on the streets and working with pimps but occasionally they make it online. Especially with the growing trend of online ads and the stiffer resistance to working girls on the streets and escort agencies. If legit SP’s like myself can figure out the ways of the internet, and its benefits to finding dates, so to can the underage girls or worse yet; sex slaves. (Girls forced to work by other people). While the SP, you are donating to, is believed to be legal age, there is no sure way on knowing that this, in fact, is accurate. There is no REAL guarantee that the SP your are seeking is as she claims to be; the only true guarantee is to ASK for PROOF of age or deal with a system that can verify independently the SP’s age for you. And even then, it still falls to your responsibility. Even when in the presence of the SP, you still have two choices before you: 1) Complete the required donation for that specific SP and enjoy the time you share together, or 2) Politely decline and leave. (Especially if underage and she won’t verify if/when you ask. Or if she’s just not up to what was advertised or your perceived thoughts she would be. Also, another thing that you could be doing as benefactors to the SP population, is to leave reviews and feedbacks on the SP’s, as this will help the next one to come along looking and seeking the same kind of information. Make note of girls that you thought were underage, and would not prove their age. Provide those people to the MOD’s of any review site you found them on. The more constructive information there is on an SP, the better informed you are as a benefactor to an SP. NOTE: I do understand the need for privacy and discretion, so the SP you think might be underage and won’t show her proof of age could be doing so to maintain her privacy. After all, even you as the benefactor (the date) would require the same level of privacy as well! But that SP can verify herself like I said through the boards and so forth… But the same still implies, ‘Buyer Beware.“ So when in doubt, get the heck out! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest s******ecan**** Report post Posted February 24, 2009 Mod Is there a way to move this thread to the general discussion? It seems an important subject that could benefit all CERB members. Since it was started under Atlantic does it get national exposure? I'm obviously not tech savy enough to know how the board works so maybe my suggestion is uneccessary.

Apex2006 1071 Report post Posted February 24, 2009 Is there anyway that the MOD can have a section on the SP's profile (like under stats) that this person has confirmed her age? That way only MOD would need to see the ID. I know that would make more work for the mod, and I understand if it's not a possibility, but don't SP's need to provide ID to make a profile unfer SP? Sorry for all the questions! Apex 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mod 135640 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 No, it is NOT my responsibility to check ID for you. If you end up with a SP who appears to be underage ask her for ID. If she says NO you should leave. If you met her on this site you should PM me and tell me (I will than ask her myself at this point) I have no intention of checking everyone's ID at the door until we find a way to serve alcohol virtually. Again NOT my responsibility, when you agree to use this site you agree that you are at least 18 years of age or older. If the girl lies and registers a username than she is breaking the site rules but until someone questions that (and has good reason to question it) I DO NOT want to get involved. I am not require to check ID and have no intention to do this voluntarily. Way too much work for me and it's your responsibility not mine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mod 135640 Report post Posted February 26, 2009 Thank you WrinkledinTime. That is correct, she has not confirmed yet but before anyone jumps to any conclusions not everyone has proper legal ID. I have had ladies email me 1 or 2 months later with proper ID asking to get back in and they just did not have it at the time. Not everyone has a drivers license, passport or a age of majority card and I will not accept the photo heath cards as proof of age. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
