So I hear extreme Prejudice and Stereotyping has hit our server.

A question:

If people are banned from ALL Team 9000 services, how do they return when they are of legal age?

(On another note, I will have been with Team 9000 for a year in less than a month! In honor of this, I'm going to build a huge piece of paper on classic that reads "EAGLE PASS BUILD PERMIT", and I'll set it on fire)

Post a clear and comprehensive privacy policy on their website describing their information practices for children’s personal information;
Done.
Provide direct notice to parents and obtain verifiable parental consent, with limited exceptions, before collecting personal information from children
Not gonna happen, as Woot has said above. Also, doesn't you strike it as creepy if he would be 'collecting childrens' information'?
Give parents the choice of consenting to the operator’s collection and internal use of a child’s information, but prohibiting the operator from disclosing that information to third parties.
Well, Woot has said that anything you say here, quite literally, 'can and will be used against you'. So buh-baww.
Provide parents access to their child’s personal information to review and/or have the information deleted;
Shouldn't parents already know their child's personal info? :confused: Anyway, you can change your personal info whenever you want, except for DOB.
Give parents the opportunity to prevent further use or online collection of a child’s personal information;
This is the internet...
Maintain the confidentiality, security, and integrity of information they collect from children.
I'm also fairly certain that it also says that the views of the members here do not reflect Woot's views. So falling at another hurdle.
You could make a parents tab. Perhaps parents could look at the server log, and find their child in it and track them. Something like a parent account. Any lying parent account = ban.
Reasonable idea, but still pretty useless.
Anyway, this is more than just being banned from a forum. This is about law.

Arguement = invalid.

A law that says "FUCK YOU PARENTS OF AMERICA, WE CONTROL WHAT YOUR CHILD SEES".

I honestly do not understand why people are so strict on what children see. Over the years I have seen legitimate suicide videos, pornography, footage of war, played extremely violent video games, and guess what? My mind is still perfectly intact, I'm an honors student, and I've NEVER repeated what I have seen.

It is for this reason that groups dedicated to the prevention of children seeing this stuff bothers me. Yes, they should rarely see it, but completely censoring a child's world is wrong.

I'm not arguing with ANYONE here, I'm just stating my thoughts. I was part of a full-time gaming community at the age of 10, and nothing bad has EVER become of it. Ever.

The problem is that if one child just so happens to repeat what they have seen on the internet or in a game then that causes uproar. One bad apple ruins the bunch!

I've seen one 5-year-old teabag his other toddler friend in the sandbox after watching his brother play CoD. True story.
