Its not arguing Matthew - we are just discussing things. This has been a fairly balanced thread and I can see both sides. Personally I don't think raising the age limit will do much unless every member has to provide id when they sign up - like FB the younger ones will just put a fake date of birth in. At least with the way things are at the moment we have an idea of ages of members so you can be aware of the content you address to them if you know they are younger (but to be fair I'm sure they hear worse irl than on here, I know I did and that was back in the dark ages)

but why should it be 13? It's a bit random. BB is inappropriate for 13 y.olds so a site about BB should be not appropriate.

13 is probably because of COPPA

I just don’t see a reason for raising the age limit except for it being an excuse to get rid of the swear filter, which mods have frequently said exists because it “cheapens the forum.”

i think this too but it’s just like 13 yo’s watching 18 rated movies and playing 18 rated video games

it’s probably because 13 is the cutoff for teenage years

i think you’re missing the point

[MTVN]

I think age limits are always pretty arbitrary, ours might be 13 but I don't think we actually have any members that age anymore. We could raise it but the reality is it would be difficult to enforce, people have always avoided age limits and if anyone purposely seeks out a BB forum to post in then I don't think they will be so naive that this place could single handedly corrupt their innocence. Also while not many members now are under 16 there are a lot of long standing members on here who started posting when they were 14 or 15 because rightly or wrongly BB always did have a lot of viewers that age

[Matthew.]

younger people in particular like reality tv, if they want to discuss it here is a good place to do so.

Thats my point....i just dont understand it at all.

[Twosugars]

Parm, but seriously, you can't think there's much vulgarity on this forum. If there's some sex talk it's usually funny and not threatening.

[Withano]

Parm is literally one of the worst offenders of this though, why havent we disregarded this thread yet lol?

I dont believe I do it often, (I wont say never, someone will find something I’m sure ) doesnt bother me much at all though.

But it puts the adults in a really awkward and uneasy position when they know they could be discussing all sorts of sex things..with god knows who..


Im 47 fgs..i dont want to be associated with 13 yr old while i discuss things like that....im surprised its not against some law to be honest.

Raise the age limit to a year over RileyH's age every year

[Withano]

Its a public forum anyway, a toddler could read through it, they’re just not allowed to sign up. Dont see what raising that age would do for a public forum.

[parmnion]

And if we dont have any members 13 or 14 then now is a good time to raise it....no?

[Matthew.]

if you don’t want to talk about it, then just don’t.

I do though, but i kerp forgetting the age thing...and get all creeped out thinking i could have just said something dirty to a 13yr old..

Take what i said to two sugars.

Im just guessing they are of adult age....i would seriously think about topping myself if i found out they were 13.
