In First is Stardoll User: Mrs.Padalecki
Mrs.Padalecki wrote a short story to the prompt "A story about a girl who shared personal information on Stardoll with a stranger and what happened because of it" and I'd like to share it with you, just read below:
Bonnie was a girl, she used Stardoll every day, her profile was open it shared allot of her favorites and her first and last name. One day someone contacted her on Stardoll asking her for more information. Bonnie was foolish and agreed sending her details to the other Stardoll user. Bonnie didn't think much of it at all until she had a stranger show up at her door. It was a girl around the same age as Bonnie. "Hello." She said in a very mellow voice. "Hi?" Bonnie arched an eyebrow. Suddenly the strange girl through a punch slamming the side of Bonnie's head colliding it into the doorway. "Who are you?" Bonnie held the bleeding slit on the side of her head as she knelled on the ground. "Kitten90r." The girl bent down and hissed in Bonnie's face before kicking her in the gut, then again and again.
Kitten90r was a friend of the Stardoll user that asked and received Bonnie's details. Kitten90r was also a girl who Bonnie had argued with in a club, the fight the two had online was fierce and it ended with Kitten90r making the remark. "I will get you."
This is an interview with the Contest winner Mrs. Padalecki:
Q1: What was your inspiration other then the prompt, for writing the winning short story?
~Well I did think allot about people threatening others over the internet would possibly lead to that persons threat actually coming true if they really wanted to find you. So I guess that was it.
Q2: How big of a problem is sharing information online today and do you think its a problem on Stardoll?
~It has increased in seriously recently because society is allot more dependent on computers and the internet. Stardoll does have rules against sharing information and has good precautions and a way about stopping people who are suspicious on Stardoll.
Q3: What do you think people should know about when they share information?
~Most of the major risks that can happen and perhaps evidence to things like that happening on websites like Facebook
Q4: Have you ever shared information online and what was the effect?
I have never shared by address but have given my name and Facebook to a girl I met on Stardoll, the effect wasn't anything negative we are now Facebook friends and both look like legitimate people too each other.
Q5: What do you think is okay to share online?
Your name and country and sometimes age. I think those aren't very major details but it lets people you are communicating with online have a little more idea about you. I personally would rather talk to someone who I knew their name and country then someone who was completely anonymous, it looks very suspicious when someone is that covered up even if they are just keeping safe.
Q6: How do you know who to trust online?
Admins of large websites and creators (Like those on Stardoll)
Q7: Any last advice for anyone who might be reading?
Make sure you have fun online but keep safe but don't completely lock yourself up all the outcomes of sharing minor details aren't always negative and you can actually make good friends from all around the world. :)
Thank you for reading and be sure to say Congrats to Mrs.Padalecki! Have a cyber safe day! :)
