First off, I and the rest of the mod staff would like to thank everyone in this game for the outpouring of affection, concern, and thoughtful consideration in the aftermath of this round's anonymous meme. Even when we have moments of darkness, I'm always so impressed by just how caring this community is on the whole, and I'm incredibly grateful to

Besides which, the language of the mod announcement says that it's requested, not required, for minors to state their minor status ( ... )

I love you mods and help staff for acting on this swiftly and with level heads. But, I really do agree with Kid on this issue. Many of the younglings will lie about their age and it was not an issue until the anon meme. Honestly, if people feel that strongly about something, they should have the guys to come out and tell a mod, or the player in question, rather than taking it out on the whole community as is happening now.
Like I say, I respect whatever you guys choose and I'm glad you are doing something to fix whatever "problem" this is considered. But, I don't think there's any good way to fix this.

We do realize that many players will not report, or lie. We know it's not a perfect system.
But we are not aiming to penalize, ostracize, or otherwise exclude players under the age of eighteen from the community. We're not even making the reporting of ages an actual requirement for community membership.
It is, more than anything else, a courtesy so that players who are uncomfortable with certain subject matters in regards to playing them directly against minors will at least have some method of checking their boundaries without having to individually confer with every player they come into contact with.
I know it seems like it might be an overreaction, but we want this community to be as comfortable a place to play as possible.

It's true that the concern here is actually to protect those of us that are older, but if someone chooses to log/whatever adult content, they should know who they're logging with. To be honest, Cape and Cowl isn't a sex game. It isn't even that dark when compared to other LJ games I've seen. I'm just not entirely understanding where the hysteria is coming from here.
But, as I've said, I really do love this game and I do respect that you guys are trying to do right here. Thanks for that. We really couldn't ask for better mods.

Other than that, this all looks fine to me.
