You know Francis, Bleck does raise an extremely point. We do kind of need to be a knit-tight forum.
Anyway on to the real reason of the topic:
And this piss' me off to no end: Age restrictions. I'm 14, yes but I still see that as wrong. Like we haven't broke the law before, I mean what the hell does age even have to do with anything?!?! If there mature, let them stay! Hell its not their fault their *age* !
So why is there an age limit? |

Honestly, post this in General Discussion, or PM Francis. This does not qualify as Feedback. |

Wow, if you want to break the law so bad, go by some spray-paint, grab a beer, and have a crazy night. |

Allowing people under the age of 13 is a legal issue. Allowing people younger that could get Francis sent to the Pokey. |

The age thing is due to the United States COPPA act which requires sites to keep children under 13 from being contacted or revealing any information about themselves. There are ways around it, if you get the parent's permisssion, but its complicated and I dont want to deal with that yet. Also, most kids under 13 are immature and can't carry on thoughtful conversations, especially on a site with much older kids and adults. |

Yeah. Count Bleck just got told by Francis himself about the posting here thing. 
Count Bleck hope he reads my PM. I'd do anything to help this place out, explains Count Bleck.
Bleh-heh-heh-heh....
And actually, Count Bleck was a member to many public forums at the age of 9. Count Bleck was a very well known member on those forums, too. As long as members are mature enough, Count Bleck believes they should be able to join forums no matter what age. Give them a test if you must!
Anywho, it's best to leave this, proclaims Count Bleck. If help arrives, it does. But if it doesn't, it doesn't. Let Digibutter be Digitbutter. |

I do agree. 11-12 year olds can be really mature. and that'd be messed up if this guy turns 13 in 1 week, but still gets banned because hes twelve. |

What if there in another country? Also, Koopler was mature. I believe part of your statement false. |

No, but they COULD shut down the site, and, well, I don't think anyone wants that. |

A shopping cart could also prove useful. |
