If something isn't right, if you feel unsafe or uncomfortable you should speak to a trusted adult in person (e.g a parent, teacher or carer). Explain the situation, show them this page and explain what CubeCraft is about. Not all adults are comfortable with technology, so try to be as clear as you can for them to understand.
This is a very serious and important page. If you don't understand anything on here, please speak to a trusted adult and ask them to take you through it. You can also reach out to our moderation team.
