PS is there not a fool proof way yet to ID over the net?
i agree but how do u propose to stop them from registering out of their own free will and lying about their age?

The only way I can think of would be to require a credit card. That would make a lot of people feel unsafe joining though.

Only thing we can do is report it when minors reveal themselves.......

Even though you could be tracked down eventually through other avenues, that's just something I really don't feel comfortable with. Not to mention I think having money exchange (or at least the potential) here would raise red flags.

It might be even broken. I saw your first post I am just saying other avenues that don't seem likely.

Why do you need to be 18 to use this site, again? I'm talking about the WHOLE site.

Because people under 18 in the United States are under the legal guardianship of their parents. Say some 16 year old who lived with mom and dad tried growing mushrooms in his closet without their consent and mom and dad found the grow op. Maybe the parents decide to investigate where he learned such a thing and find out that an internet site is freely and knowingly giving out specific advice to minors. Maybe 16 year old is afraid of retribution from his parents and tells them right away where he found the information. Maybe dear old mom is an activist deep down at heart and after discovering where the information was coming from, she knows it is her duty to see that sites like the Shroomery (which are threatening her precious innocent little angel of a child) must be STOPPED. 
I can see it. Its a 'better safe than sorry' rule as far as I'm concerned.

All we have to do is put the little red disclaimer on the drug-related forums...and in some countries you don't have to be 18 to be involved with the drug-related stuff we're involved with, right?

Yeah but then you would have to add stuff to check for countries and what not. The 18 and over rule is there for good reason and should be followed.
