That way, not so many rules or anything

This, but Over 16's instead.

And I would implement an archive of all the classic threads, so that people can still view them, just not post in them.

Yeah 16s should work too.

And I really think that would be a good idea beast. I know which part I would prefer to be in

Then the 14s will say, but over 14s instead - etc! As soon as you reach 18 - you will say over 18s too - bet ya boots!

And besides you can't have an age limit that specifies people that could pass for that age - that's ridiculous - lots of people think that about themselves doesn't make it true! Either they are or they aren't! Simples!

No it's not riddiculous. It makes perfect sense. If you can pass for 16/18 to the extent that nobody found out you were younger, then you are obviously mature enough to meet the minimum level of maturity that the admins and mods of a forum want to maintain.

It makes perfect sense.

No you weren't, I was pointing out that I said I'd agree to an Over 16's restriction, but one that allowed people who acted 16+ to pass.

You were assuming that everyone that was an age [say 14] would say 'I think it should be 14+', so I was pointing out that you were wrong.

And of course you can.

If most people assume/believe that someone is older than they really are, or act older than they really are, then how else would they know otherwise?

Nah.. if the forum was 16+, we have no way of actually knowing if a member is 16 or not. But there would be less rules as officially the forum does not allow children. So if they could pass for 16, nothing we could do about it really...no way of knowing.
