No offense or anything, but why don't you actually debate him rather than just saying "Shut up?"


As for what Timo said, it won't work.

First of all, there already is COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection) for people under the age of 13 but most people will just lie about there age online. It would be the same with the 15+ thing.

Also, being 15 is still being a miner, aand 15 year olds are a lot more horny than a 12 year old, and will be more likely to get molested, if it happens, as they are more likely to wwant to exhange pictures, etc.

For people who say it is Microsoft's fault: It isn't. Its a voice chat system. Most  games on Live are M, and for some reason I want to guess the game they met on was Halo 2, the most popular game for Xbox, from Microsoft and Bungie. Now, im not saying minors should be banned from M games, but a parent should be checking in on them sometimes. Of course, again, it isn't really MS's fault at all. The two ONLY MET on Live, they exchanged emails via Live, and then thats where it began. Which I guess could pretty much cancel out this entire paragarph.

Nice debate. Come back when you can say something intelligent.

@ IceFox: Yes, I know they lie about their age, but thats why parents don't have to buy them a computer until they are 15 :P

Of course, there is


-The Family Computer



Most people have a family computer, and there is no way Kids cant use them. They may need it for school research or to type homework, and Kids can do the registering, etc,  for sites then. And use AIM Express.

Also there is the school computer. And Proxys. Younger kids who are using computers a lot, and a lot more of them are learning what a proxy is, and can use them to access sites that the school blocked.

Flat out, it just wont work restrcited the age to 15 or older.

Password for family computers. Maybe an account for mom & dad and thats it. Kids cant use it unless they figure out the password.

Yes, but what about schoolwork that needs to be typed? They will need the computers, the parents log them in, they can do there browsing then. Parent walks in room-They close browser. delete cookies/history/files whatever, and its trace is gone. Of course, not a lot of people would go through that trouble to talk to someone on AIM...


Also, you completely ignored school computers.


Flat out, I think the idea of banning interent access to people under the age of 15 is stupid, won't work, and people will still find ways around it. Like when Microsoft patches up Windows (The countless times they have done so) someone will soon find a new exploit.

They dont need the computer till their about...5th or 6th grade?

Even then, there are programs you can protect for kids not to get in :)

5th or 6th grade is still under 15, now isnt it?

I hate online gaming... I don't see the point of it. A lot of the people are really rude and nasty too you for no apparent reason other then the fact you are a n00b or whatever. I prefer to play on my own or with someone I know. It's just a waist of money. It really is.

That's absurd.  I've been using computers since I could read, and I (and many others) would be a lot stupider if I didn't have unlimited access to computers before 15.
