copying my post in Lounge:
QUOTE in short, as long as you sign up to a website which required your email / name / any info. its illegal unless your above 13 years old. for more info: http://www.ftc.gov/ogc/coppa1.htm So when someone under 13 joins, its considered illegal, and some (paul murphy for eample) become spammers. the last forum i had which was an Invision fourm btw, got taken down because we had people under 13 on it. So i'm just saying, for the love of god add a age verifyer in the sign up page. |

I dont think people can really do anything about kids lying about their age. How would people verify their age? I dont think they can really ask people for a credit card number for parental permission because many people wouldnt want to reveal it. I think the most that someone can do is put a warning for kids under 13 or make a kid-version of the website.
