What is the actual point of there being an age requirement of 13 when it isn’t actually enforced in any way. There are people who clearly underage that are able to continue playing the server. But why? What’s stopping them from just claiming to be 13 (or some other close number) despite in reality being a preteen. LotC has had issue with pedophiles in the past that take advantage of this problem that plagues LotC. In fact, the pedophilia problem is one of the biggest reasons why people who used to play aren’t anymore. The age requirement, from my understanding, is to prevent younger people from graphic roleplay and on the darker side being under the influence of nefarious neckbeard predators that are attracted to roleplay servers like LotC while also filtering and keeping the more mature players in and kicking the immature players out if they don’t seem LotC-roleplay ready (which honestly doesn’t mean a lot these days). So with this in mind, why isn’t much been done to prevent incidents that result because of obvious preteens still playing. This could be prevented to some extent by raising the age requirement a few years higher (to 16 or 17 even) and temporarily banning younger players to ensure that the average maturity among players is higher and to prevent (or at least discourage those) who try to take advantage of young players. Of course, I think removing child predators is a much preferable alternative but unfortunately we can’t get them all until they do something wrong to show that they are one..tl;dr Increase age requirement to discourage child predators and increase average maturity levels.
Yes, I acknowledge it isn’t 100% effective but I know it would be better than what we have now.

I honestly wish it was enforced man. There are so many childhoods that have been ruined by the internet and stuff like this already. In an argument in general, (or the main global #OOC chat) I’ve seen someone who was obviously a kid be cussed out for being wrong. I understand these kids just want to rolepway on this epic mineman server, but this isn’t your standard Roblox roleplay, and for their safety they shouldn’t even be on the internet. Youtube, Roblox, you name it.

When will they learn? When will they learn? Their actions have consequences.

do the Ascended still exist after all these years. I haven’t heard about them in a while.

If you’re planning to nuke banditry then you’ll also have to nuke slaving or else people will just take travelers to their city, remove all their belongings and then dispose of the slave at the earliest behavior.
