You don't need to prove anything to anyone, Jessica. (Except the mods if they ask, LOL.) Don't feel like you have to get on webcam if someone suggests you're not who you say you are, people say things all the time. I've been called a troll before too, just so you know. The person who said that was later banned, if I remember correctly.
Rick, I am just curious... Since you took absolutely no hesitation in slamming Jessica's character and saying some of the most insulting things a man, let alone Christian man, could say to a young lady...
I have to ask you this publicly, since you were willing to slander her publicly.
Are you regularly sending emails to young women on this site?
And then accusing them of trolls if they don't answer? In other words... Did you yourself have a vested interest in her, and then felt rejected that she did not respond, and this is why you accused her of being a troll?
I may sound rude, but no 17-year-old young woman needs to respond to any 49-year-old man, Christian or not, especially over the internet. Ladies, if you do receive such correspondence, I would suggest getting a parent or someone you trust involved and, with their consent, only answer as a "we" email instead of just yourself (clearly letting them know that someone else is monitoring what they say to you.)
I am not trying to say that all older men have ulterior motives, but I advise caution, public (not secret) communication, and the involvement of a same-sex mentor you trust in any such case. Take it from someone who has had older men trying to talk to her "in the name of Christ" all her life. Obviously, I feel strongly about this because I've been there and don't want to see it happen to another young woman, especially on a Christian site.
Rick, I certainly hope you aren't harassing other young women on this site as well, and if you are, that they report you immediately.

Jessica,
Jim is absolutely right. DO NOT be pushed or manipulated into doing things just to "prove" yourself. You don't owe anyone anything who is going to insult you in order to try to get his way. In fact, it's him who owes you--the decency to leave you alone and stop prowling for victims.
You are seeing perfect examples of manipulation right here--the guy pressuring you to have sex, and a man here who insults you for no reason other than that he obviously wanted to establish some sort of relationship with you. BOTH are using the same tactics--pushing you to get what they want through dishonest and very unChristian means. It's especially disheartening to see with long-term or older "Christians",as common sense and general maturity should be a given, but unfortunately, is obviously not.
Please, do not fall for it, no matter which way it rears its ugly head, or in which form (whether a flattering suitor or an older "Christian" man who is trying to set himself up as your "mentor".) It's all a bunch of baloney.
The people here have all been through it and have a lot of wisdom to share.
Stand your ground, girl! *hugs* And please, feel free to contact me if you need to talk. Best wishes!

I know that I myself might sound like a big jerk for calling someone out on this, but since he was the one to publicly insult a female poster 32 years younger than he is for simply not answering his email, I'm going to choose to say something. If he seems to "know" that the person behind the avatar he was writing (notice he mentions the avatar only, not who she is as a person), is actually a fat male, why then, exactly was he writing? I suppose he'll claim that he was sending "helpful" "Christian" diet tips???
He may have said he was "sorry" but a man that age should know better.
And, you see this thing happen all the time. They say, "I'm sorry..." as they're busy writing to another potential victim.
I personally believe public awareness is the best prevention.

So i go on peoples profiles..... ugly i've been on yours 7.2 billion times today.. What seems to be the problem?! 
In all seriousness
, I went once to his profile to see who he was and it said he was private messaging. Then after Seoulsearch said what she did i went on it again and he was private messaging again.
I have a feeling he is doing exactly that to young girls.
And i just hope since Jessica offered to get on webcam for him that he isnt trying to take her up on that.

Yeah, perhaps another female should message her directly and inform her that, rather than falling for some creepy old trolls attempt to see her on cam to 'prove' who she is to him, that she should be content in not having to prove herself to a creepy old troll. You know, give her some tips on wisdom... making right choices... what guys to avoid... *ahem
Someone other than, you know, an ugly older guy mailing her privately to tell her all that, or having to say it in public.
