You're encouraging them to register for a gambling account.
If I was in court for giving a kid the means and encouragement to use drugs, do you think "I didn't force him/her" would be a satisfactory defense, either legally or morally?
Either way, its not like I'm losing sleep over it, its just if I had young kids then I probably wouldn't let them on here to be honest.

You're right - Poker isn't classed as gambling. Oh wait

As I said previously (perhaps you missed my post), Perfspot is a social networking site that happens to have a portion of its site dedicated to the game of poker. It is not however a gambling site.

I probably wouldn't choose perf spot in the first place. I was a member there for a short time, and I got seriously sexually harassed. A guy messaged me on webcam wearing no pants and showed me his dick. I've been told that they're going to find me, that they want to have sex with me, I've been threatened, all that fun stuff. It's just not a good site.

Even if it's gambling site the kids must ask their parents for everything on the internet if not, well i don't think the only problem is the little sign up that bandaids ask...
If you have a site like this it's really difficult to do it without money.Yeah you are sending PMs like these but after that you are not responsble for the others.As i said above the kids MUST learn to ask their parents for some things if not...Internet has amzingly many problems.Also don't forget all those ads at every single site you visit.Even at google when you search smth you access to those things.
Anyway i don't think the site works now.I couldn't sign up at all.
*Adam i didn't like the way you talk at Tiffani too.I know that you talk to her but wasn't really nice.Anyway it's your option on how are you talk at the others.Just mention it.*

If i get it you're talking about Bandaids...if not forgive me...
Lol..how bandaids are responsible for that??How they are gonna know about us?Maybe they start sending spies at every single member of 100.000 we have so they are sure that it's not bad man?How they are gonna banned the ppl u are talking about if we don't say to them??I think they did it when they learn it...
Not a good site??How many sites making charities like bandaids did??How many sites have the options and abilities we have here?How many sites are so organised??

Ew Amy that's horrible
But we don't exactly get to just choose the offers we get (hence the name offers). We're kind of obligated to use whatever we can get to keep the site alive. I hope you can understand that.
Bandaids costs a lot more than other sites out there.

Actually, it is a gambling site, hence the name " PerfSpot Poker". Sure, it also uses social networking as a tool to entice more users, but essentially all of that is built around the gambling aspect, and as someone has already pointed out, these sites attract rather unsavory members.
Like I said, I'm only making a suggestion here, based on the age demographic of the membership on here.

Actually the average age of our users is probably like 22-24. It's not like I calculated it, but that seems about right to me. We have a lot of older people on Bandaids
