Maybe Jesse can add to this because I don't know personally, but how would that be monitored? I mean, if an age limit is set, what's to stop a new member who is underage from creating a new account and registering with a later birth year so that the adult forum could be accessed? With that, the only way I know of is to monitor the IP address. But with a growing community, that would be a losing battle trying to keep tabs on everything.

I don't know the mechanics of this forum's applications, so perhaps there are other barriers that could be implicated.

My personal opinion on this is that you (all members) have a private inbox. The material there is not monitored with the exception of the potty mouth filter. You can be as nasty, controversial, suggestive, explicit etc etc as you want to be. Underage kids are smart. If they want to, they can figure out a way to get around all the loop holes.
