Should the age rule be más serious on Fanpop?

-If you're not aware of the rule, if tu are ≤ 12 and you've tried to enter your age, it will not let you. It tells you: Sorry, tu must be over o exactly 13 years old to use Fanpop. -

It should be a pick, but in picks, tu don't always comment. And plus, I wanna know why.

I think it should be más serious and taken seriously because of the lack on maturity with *SOME* of the kids ≤ 12. Also, the amount of children are exposed to unfamiliar language that can lead to future issues o finding things out too early. And the fact that some of them (the ones with English first language) clearly don't know how to type and write.

Opinions? Agreed o disagreed?

Should the age rule be más serious on Fanpop?

If anyone saw that last comment, I was kidding. I'm very well 15. I just don't feel it. :/

It would be nice.....I can tell some one's age/maturity level just por lectura their comentarios o chatting with them and it does get irritaing at times.Sometimes I think parents are some what at blame here.you hear about how awful facebook and twitter can be, but nothing about Fanpop. just because it's not exactly like facebook doesn't mean it's nicer.

No. As long as they are willing to handle possible mature content, they should be allowed to be here. I think the age rule is simply a warning that there may be content not suited for children under that age, seeing how it isn't enforced whatsoever. I'm fine with underage users. If they are annoying, I will reportar them, but I know plenty of annoying users over 13.

Pfft. People FOLLOW that rule?! HAHAGYAAAHHAAAHAA!!! HAAAAAAHAAHA! *ROFLMAO* Oh. That cracks me up.

But seriously. I really don't think it should be there. Just a some sort of "Viewer discretion is advised".

I never followed it. In fact, I don't know ANYONE who has.

Now excuse me while I laugh until my dying day.

But as long as there's music, there is happiness. /Brick'd

Some sites, definitely. But a lot of the sites I've joined that have that rule really don't need it. Such as DeviantART and Fanfiction. As well as Fanpop. :3

Meh. What KnougeChick said. I got this last año when I was 12, so.

I think that instead of an age check, there should be a mini grammar/maturity test. Sounds annoying but it would help us all greatly.

I'm not sure. I don't think that when a person turns 13 they're automatically más mature. In fact, I don't think age has to do with it at all. Some 17 año olds are más immature than 12 año olds, tu know? So, I guess my answer is no, I don't think the age rule should be más serious. But I do think there should be some way of telling people before they sign up that they ought to be mature if they want to use this site.

Disagreed.
End of story.
Okay, I'll give one point: honestly, in this century o decade o whatever, I doubt lots of foul language is particularly new to any 13-year-old (or over). And I would know. I'm any 13-year-old.

No matter what tu do, tu cannot prove someone is under-age unless they tell you. And plus, when making an account, all tu have to do is bump up your age and no one will be the wiser. So really, they should just put a big scary warning there, cause there isn't much they can do. What are they gunna do? Screen each and every person?....PSHHHH
