If the other person is a minor and the interaction gets reported, it could be difficult to convince law enforcement (and a jury if things go that far) that you were 100% unaware that they were a minor.
I think the best way to "prove" the innocence is by reviewing chat logs.

if it comes to that, that is, and Law enforcement starts investigating the case, they're legally compelled to investigate every little detail. now im not sure if SE would provide full chat logs of a player.

but yeah, that's a pretty good way to prove one's innocence.

I'd say its easier to do that online, as everything is recorded, compared to irl where if you meet someone in the club and they say they're 19, but turns out they're 17, you'd find it harder to prove your innocence.
