Thinking about online gaming, you are likely to think about games that you play with an internet connection. What we don’t think about is the games we can play with an internet connection but with other people. This is where creating relationships come into play.
When you create relationships through online gaming, you do need to be extremely careful. Whilst most people do have good intentions and will have the same interests as you. Some predators do use online gaming platforms to trick their targets into thinking they are someone they aren’t. With online gaming, you should always be careful. Be careful what information you share with people you don’t know. Keep personal details to yourself, only discuss the game you are playing and nothing to do with your normal life. if you are to trust them and want to meet them, go somewhere public, like a gaming convention where you are going to be safer than meeting in private. Always let others know what you are doing to keep yourself safe.
