Originally posted by trev33Yes, I am just wondering how that would work out legally for the site...Sometimes what we think would be logical, isn't the way the law works, that is why I have a lawyer for making contracts, and looking at them, because the ordinary Joe, don't know much about the law. I have been amazed at times.
my guess is that they would have to make everyone agree to the terms that they're over 18 and they understand that tis forum may contain...whatever. if a 14 year old agrees then it has nothing to do with rhp.
Originally posted by cashthetrashthat was the worst example ever. if a bar serves booze to anyone under aged it doesn't matter if they used fake id or whatever, it's the bar responsibilities for not serving anyone under the legal age and they, the bar will get fined in caught.
Let me ask you a question. Lets say that the legal age to be served a dink is age 21. Lets then assume some minor walks into a bar where it is posted that no one under the age of 21 is allowed to be served liquor. What would happen to a bar tender if they serve a drink to say a 13 year old who first claims to be 21 and then latter confesses to be 13. Wh ...[text shortened]... w they are here, yet the bouncer is letting them stay. even though the Tos says it's a no, no.
and i have my u.s hat on here.
Originally posted by cashthetrashIf the bar took the proper legal precautions, they'd be in the clear. If the minor presents a fake ID that looks real, the bar isn't going to get fined unless the particular State has laws imposing strict liability.

did you have your lair look at your rhp contract? 😛
I know I was told to remember it was a G-rated 13+ site, by a mod in a friendly message on something I had said in the forum, and no I am not going to repeat it. 😛

Originally posted by no1marauderthe tos says many things but yet darv and myself are still here as two examples of many. i do remember what i was asked, and it was 13 or over. so i can only assume that when they say you have to be of legal age to enter a contract, they're talking about who's card you have used to join the site. in other words a 13 year old can join and play on the site here but if between 13-17 it's the reasonability of their parents (or whoever card they used) for and legal matters.
I honestly don't remember but the TOS is quite clear.
Originally posted by trev33The wording is clear and your interpretation doesn't make any sense.

Originally posted by no1marauderok i'll change my wording. the site is a 13+ site but if any legal matters came up for anyone aged 13-17 it would be in the hands of the person who can legally enter a contract. in this instance the person that the 13-17 year old used for their subscription purchase.
The wording is clear and your interpretation doesn't make any sense.
better?
