Slide Stops Shanking Users

Apparently there has been a little bit of an uproar over the past few days over one of the actions on Slide’s SuperPoke application. Users were able to “shank” each other. “Shank” is a slang term which refers to stabbing other people. The action was considered distasteful as there have been a number of London teenagers who have been killed this year in violent attacks. Slide decided to have the feature removed following being contacted by the Sun.
