Hello!
I saw a topic on here which was about age and roleplaying, which made me wonder what scenes (in terms of roleplaying) there’s considered not friendly for minors? Obviously sex scenes and pure gore is, but I’m genuinely wondering.
I’m a minor myself and I just want to make sure I’m not breaking any rules! :)

Thank you! Both the quote and the link helped me understand it a bit more. I think I'm mostly wondering about the rules of roleplaying fx sexual content, in terms of age - like, if when I'm not a minor anymore, will I have to make sure the people I may be roleplaying sexual themes with aren't minors?
Correct; there are potential legal ramifications if an adult RP's sexual content with a minor.

Is it then the adult’s responsibility to ask if the person they’re roleplaying with is a minor or not (if their age isn’t visible on their profile) or is it the minors responsibility to say that they don’t want to get in trouble and therefore won’t roleplay fx sexual scenes?
It's the responsibility of both partners to be honest about their age. But all the legal consequences, if there are any, will fall solely on the adult.
