  3. I wonder how many moderators they use. by Ailure · · Score: 5, Interesting

    You know, considering it's for kids and all. I wonder how they would protect kids from pedophiles. On the other hand, it's nice that's it's only open when they can moderate it. People living in dodgy timezones will have a problem with that thought... I had bad past experince with events happening in midnight. :P

    Have there been any online "virtual reality" chat for kids before? >_>

    But it being spelled kindom, so it's must be a really nice chat. ;)
