What was probably more likely is that he met her in global, exchanged mail ID's and carried on in a medium outside the game. This game is filled with kids, but lack of parental control is more to blame than the game itself, sadly.

The "web game's private chat facility"is referring to the clan chat, can't you people but the pieces together?

I do understand where you are coming from though.

They may have made their own clan and closed it.

I don't know how to respond to that...

"cult online game."

Cult is such a loaded word, implies that everyone who plays is either part of a cult or follows the occult.

When u visit ur home town, be careful who u "clash" with

It's disgusting - but I don't see how the game has any relevance - sensationalist journalism, the internet is full of people like this if it's not Clash it would be another medium.

This is probably a good thread to point out that if anyone sees anything like this going on in game please do the world a favour and screen shot:

The conversation
The person's profile + clan if possible

+ Note the time of the conversation

And send it immediately to your local law enforcement agency and let them do the rest.

Ugh. This is pretty sick, just glad she's ok.

That's a good strategy to be cautious in the future.
This is just too disgusting. She said age is just a number.
If 14 year olds do that, I'm sorry, I don't want my birthday in 10 days. I'll stay a 13nie x_x
