TLDR; edaters arent even problematic in terms of inflicting damage to other players, as long as they use SAR as a game to enjoy while meeting eachother and not as a purely chatting platform.
online dating is not even a problem imo, but it is problematic if you see like 5 couples in a single social hub, EVERY HUB ON EVERY SERVER AT ALL TIMES.
its their choice what to do with SAR.
HOWEVER, if they play SAR for the SAKE of online dating and not playing and just so happening to grow out as really good friends or more? agreed, those must be encouraged to move to an appropiate platform .
Plus, Edaters hurt nobody and are the least of "problems" in terms of types of people in social hubs.
I saw alot of preds in the early weeks of SAW (i mainly played on EU and NA), and now that is reduced to 2 known, returning preds that also happen to be brothers on the SA servers (info comes from their ex-victim and REALLY close friend of mine). I do not know what its like on the NA/EU servers since I havent played them much recently.
