What's wrong with the dfw_collective? I just tried twice to post in it, but when I hit update, I get this:
[]
Age Verification
We're sorry, the action you were trying to perform requires you to verify that you are authorized to have this account. Please ask your parent to continue the registration process with you.

Information Relating to Children
The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA") requires that we inform parents about how we collect, use, and disclose personal information from children under 13 years of age. LiveJournal.com is not directed at children under 13 but we recognize that with proper adult supervision some parents might permit their children to visit LiveJournal.com and use our Service. COPPA also requires that we obtain the consent of parents and guardians in order for children under 13 years of age to use certain features of LiveJournal.com.

When your child attempts to register and/or provide personal information to LiveJournal.com, we require a parent or legal guardian to:

complete the registration;
review our privacy policy and to submit a valid credit card number to verify that the child's parent or guardian knows about and authorizes our information practices related to children protected by COPPA; and
verify through the use of an email confirmation and second authorization that the parent or guardian consents to the Terms of Service and LiveJournal.com's privacy policy. . . . . .

Then it asks me on the next page for a credit card that has at least $.01 on it.

What the hell? Fix it!
