Okay this is IceLords brother... As a college student, a Criminology major and one who all around knows the law, I have to ask.... Does it say anywhere in the tos that those who violate are subject to prosecution? Because here is the thing... The agreement falls upon the stores selling the games. They are not allowed to sell Mature rated games to underage kids. Just like a bar cannot serve an underage kid. HOWEVER, your parents CAN give you consent to play such games. Our mom bought this game and is allowing my brother to play it, that is apart of her judgment and the game cannot sue my family UNLESS it states that those that violate are subject to prosecution.
Now, about your myspace comparison... you are a complete dumb ass. Do you know anything about that case... She didn't create an account for an underage person. She was indicted for "one count of conspiracy and three counts of accessing protected computers without authorization to get information used to inflict emotional distress on the girl." This case is completely irrelevant to your half-ass attempt at an argument. Learn to uses your sources for an argument, just like my brother has used in me. The girl that killed herself in this case was also underage. Did you notice that? Is her family being charged with anything? No. There is no law to breaking the terms of service, unless otherwise stated.
Now with your bar comparison. I laugh at you. Your parents CAN give consent to drink at a bar dumb ass, but they have to be with you. As a 20 year old I have drank with my mom at bars for the last 3 years.
so, buddy, please dont post trying to act like you know what you're talking about.... you may be 21, but you dont know everything yet kid
I wish I had a big brother
And who cares you guys are posting paragraphs back and forth over the ability to play a game. I knew a 13 year old kid more mature than some 20+ guys on WoW and the only difference was he sounded like a chick lol.
Also about the not many kids running around, you're right. On the AoC official forums they have a survey and according to it the majority of players are actually 31-40 years old
Crazy.
