New fisherman, same as the old fisherman

Since the dawn of BC there have been old perverts posing as guys "younger than a lot of you" in order to strike up connections with older men for friendship and more. Recently we've had a surge of obvious sock puppet characters who seem to be here for the sole purpose of luring BCers to contact them via email. Warning! You can not trust anyone here, period and moreover you especially can not trust anyone who participates in those sorts of conversations. Sources say that on BC the one who warns people not to visit sketchy sites often turns out to be the same person seeking juicy boy content. With one sock puppet they will ask for links and with the other sock they will warn against asking for links, that way their assorted characters can groom BCers on multiple sides of the "debate." Yes there have been, are and probably always will be disgusting communities on the dark net where pedophiles meet up to exchange their foul creations. If that's the type of place you want to visit then you are barking up the wrong tree here at BC. No links to such places will ever be shared here. Additionally, there are also supportive communities who use the tor and the dark web for privacy reasons specifically to keep (weirdos and trolls like the ones who often dominate BC) from disturbing them. Sources say there are communities based on mutual support and uplifting each other which don't host any boy content. Additionally, boylovers have always, do and will probably always hang together on social media apps such as Facebook, Tiktok, Instagram and the many messaging apps. While the pro-crime crowd shrieks at the mention of these methods of communicating, the anti-molesters among us have little to fear from gathering together where ever we want to uplift each other. No links to such places will ever be shared here, because we don't want trolls, antis or rifraf invading our spaces to cause us trouble. BC is not the place to look for invites to any sort of community. There are too many bad people monitoring this space, just waiting for their opportunity to invade and dominate our discussions with their disgusting ideologies. But in general if you want to find communities to join you need to get to know people. Make posts that show what kind of person you are and talk about your values in the various sites and chatrooms that you can find. Share your email address (preferably Tutanota or Proton and if people reach out to you, get to know them a little bit and let them get to know you and before long you will have earned enough trust to be invited into (or form) a community with values that match your own. Just be aware that we have some real assholes monitoring BC. Make absolutely sure that you have a hard to guess password for any email account that you share here. In the past BCers have been hacked due to using weak passwords or easily guessed password reset questions. You mess around with this den of vipers at your own risk, so be careful.
