“Inappropriate” behavior

Post by ChrissyCakes »

Is anyone else experiencing an increase in messages from random people they’ve never “met” or played with? Five times now, guys I’ve never played with strike up a conversation and ask me the most random or creepiest questions, ask for my phone number, etc.

Just once was the behaviour “inappropriate” enough for me to report the player... but it’s still annoying.

This isn’t Tinder... It’s a gaming site. BOARD games, of all types. I’ve already changed my age to 96 years old and wrote a personal comment that I’m not interested in flirting My profile picture is not some busty lady either...

Buuuut, I’d rather not hide my gender.

Suggestions? Similar experiences?

I have had a few similar experiences once/if people find out my gender. Either inappropriate remarks or sexist/condescending remarks. But to answer your question, I've never had messages from people I've never played with. I think red thumbing them might block them from messaging you, I'm sorry you've had to experience this :(
