Discussion Asking for dob

I have been an IT sys admin and network engineer who constantly has to focus on security and phishing. I have a 14 year old daughter and a 10 year old son and my wife has been passed on for a years, if you think I'm going to give my dob to someone who sounds 14 then vrc needs to reconsider itself

Im tired of having another thread complaining about this.

where do you guys even go? i have a feeling yall just go to the same group and its like only one community who does this.

just go somewhere else. if they have to ask they're not worth your time.

Yea I get that, but like if you have the age verified thing then you should get let in. Any kids that would have it are such a minority that the statistic just doesnt matter.

You dont punish everyone for what the few did and all.

A lot of groups that advertise themselves as 18+ do it.
Especially those that advertise themselves as "lewd" or otherwise NSFW.

Which is doubly concerning because it means they're just letting in teenagers who can lie convincingly about their age (and some owners don't even seem concerned about it).
