I don't understand why people do this. If you're going to do anything porn related, as despicable and immoral I think that is, don't do it through Graal. Get your perverted fix somewhere else. It isn't that hard to come across a website that would meet your nasty standards when it comes to this...slice of pie... Most of the people on this game are probably undeveloped too. We're talking a majority of people around 13-14, perhaps? Some may not have even hit puberty yet. Do you really want to see nudes of that? If the answer is still yes, you need help because that's very unnatural in human behavior, even with your raging hormones. That's just plain wrong.

What do you think about people asking for Kik and snapchat too send explicit pictures? Post your opinion here. Personally I think it's wrong.

This is a problem that has persisted for as long as GraalOnline has existed on mobile platforms, and does not appear to be going away any time soon.

A while ago I ran a few investigations into users who ask for Kik for "chat" and there were some interesting results. Between 2011 to 2013, there was a decreasing trendline in male users asking girls for Kik explicitly requesting indecent images, however there was also a similar increase in apparent lesbian users asking girls for Kik to "chat" or "have fun" and "make friends". The number increase in the latter was roughly equal to the decrease of the former.

Using a spare account, I left the character idle in Graal City and received a dozen or so such invitations. Once a Kik username was exchanged, they wasted no time in making demands for nude photographs. Their intended targets are usually underaged teenagers and they appear to know that their actions are against the law.

Through making some small talk and attempting to divert the conversation topic, I was able to trace the personal details of the majority of such users down to their real names and locations. Unsurprisingly, 100% of the "lesbian" Kik users were males in disguise. When presented with this evidence and told that their actions were illegal, most of them used the excuse "I'm below the age of 18 so these laws don't apply to me, I'm not doing anything wrong" (most of them were below 18, a few were above), which is actually untrue, since they were still committing an offence. What was shocking was how some of them are already in relationships (through some background research, about half of them are) and yet they do this behind their girlfriends' backs, as well as their blatant disregard for the law and morality in general. Additionally there was evidence to suggest some of these users were collecting underaged nude images and then sharing them online, an act of child pornography.

If I kept an archive of all of these sex offenders' details and submitted them to law enforcement organisations, there would be enough evidence to successfully prosecute several dozens of them and keep them away from vulnerable children in the future.

Haha, nice bump.

I wasn't able to put my opinion here yet, but I suppose now is the correct time to do so. I personally find the pornography exchange disgusting, and even more so that men would disguise as females to get lesbian photographs. In my honest opinion, I believe that if one wants to get in touch with another person via kik on graal, I suppose that's fine. In fact, I use kik on a daily basis to chat with my friends on my phone. But when players, MINOR players, send pictures to each other, that is when things get out of hand. I mean, seriously, get a girlfriend (or a boyfriend).
