IN TERMS OF SITE ACTIVITY, ITS MUCH MORE LIKELY WE WOULD GET A MAJOR INJECTION OF NEW MEMBERS FROM YOUNGER PPL RATHER THAN OLDER PPL, AN THATS SOLELY BASED ON THA FACT YOUNGER PPL HAVE MORE FREE TIME AN SPEND MORE TIME ONLINE THAN ANY OTHER GENERATION.... IM NOT TALKIN JUST UNDER 18's HERE, IM CLASSIN A YOUNGER MEMBER AS UNDER 25..... SO IF LB BECAME AN 18+ WEBSITE THEN THAT COULD STOP A POTENTIAL FUTURE INJECTION OF MEMBERS, WHICH COULD ALSO LEAD TO THA END OF LETSBEEF.COM DUE TO THA SITE BECOMIN A COMPLETE GRAVEYARD .............

I THINK LB SHOULD BECOME A 13+ WEBSITE IF ANYTHING, THATS MY OPINION.

Regardless of the age in question, 18, 13, 25, etc, I think the underlying issue is primarily the lack of age VERIFICATION. Restrictions totally aside. As I've previously expressed, without a verification system of some sort, there's no deterrent for the data collection from minors. Which is something that the privacy policy explicitly states the site doesn't do. In order to maintain that standing, it's important that there's some determinant of the age of the members, at least to administration. Even if that verification isn't publicly available information.


Edit: I, personally, still think the site should be 18+. But, my personal opinion aside, the previous remarks do still denote a pretty gaping hole in the site's policy. Even if I were to concede from my own standing.
