LOL!!!! Let me remind you that anyone can lie about their age on the internet.


Who said that? If they couldn't lie, how come there were parents complaining about their kids using their credit cards to make online payments to ebay and video games? :D :D :D

You know when they really can't lie? Let me tell you. That's when some "13 year old kids" try to complain about the payments and Jagex ask them to show their real world identities with real world ID proofs and uh oh... they can't lie or they go to jail. :D :D :D

Do show me a case of a 13 year old being sent to jail, it'll definitely be an interesting read.


If you don't see
"13 year old kids"
is in quotation marks, I don't know how to help you.

So in real life, if some parents claimed his "13 year old kids" bought some pixels but claimed that's against his will, and a video game developer, say Jagex, asked the "13 year old kids" to come forward so they can investigate because GDPR or other real life laws require.

Upon further review, the "13 year old kids" show up with the ID of some grownup... guess who is going to win in Court and who is going to jail. :D :D :D :D :D :D

So you can't prove your point, got it. Didn't need to type out so many sentences just to say that.

Prove what point? I clearly told you the "13 year old kids" I explicitly put in quotations referred to the ones who said there were "13 year old kids" on the internet but not in real life. :D :D :D

Go look at your original statement, before you even mentioned anything about 13 year olds.

i wouldnt mind if every service involving money was made k18, even member ;)


Essentially they can just do what ebay is doing easily:

"A person under 18 can use an adult's account with the permission of the account holder. However, the account holder is responsible for everything done with that account.

You can report a user to us if you believe they're under 18. You should include their username and any messages or email you've received from them."


Any video game companies can just link a child player's account to his parent's payment account with the approval of the parent. No more "oh my kids are wiping my pastics behind my back" nonsense. :D

Or they could just apply this to their players in Missouri only if this Bill passed in like 20 years and be enforced in yet another 20 years. Well, Jagex has 2% child players and how many of them are actually from Missouri? :D :D :D

Runescape is less "PREDITORY GAMBLING" than Facebook poker and all those lame ass games are.

Come back and hit me up when u take down Facebook. I want u to do it... dooo it! Doooo it! DOOOOO IT!

_____

Runescape can be "fixed" to remove any preserved "PREDITORY GAMBLING"... Facebook poker will always be poker and shit.
Skillet? Skill no.

So much moot.

Runescape is not "predatory gambling", not even the couple of Belgium government officials in their own petty island said it is.

BTW, the video game industry is exposing the dirty laundry of the Belgium Gambling Commission. The BGC is in hot water as they pretty much admitted they leaked reports and harbor their own equally "guilty" Belgium companies like the ones who operate Pokemon games. :D :D :D

https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2019-05-28-games-industry-being-dragged-through-the-mud-by-belgian-loot-box-ruling

"According to Verbruggen, the civil servants of the BGC leaked the report to the press without consulting the commission's elected representatives. Additionally, he said the BGC didn't consult with stakeholders in the games industry at any point while compiling the report."


"Under the current definition, Verbruggen noted that even a school raffle is technically illegal, as are trading card games such as Pokémon. However, there are certain exemptions under Belgian law. It's worth noting that Cartmundi, one of the largest playing card manufacturers in the world, which also makes cards for Pokémon and Hasbro, is a Belgian firm."


The video game industry is not lobbying these so-called "governments". They are going to the expose their unethical and unfair, if not unlawful and corruptive practice to their own real governments and the whole world. :D :D :D

Throwing flimsy allegations isn't the same as exposing.


Flimsy allegations? BGC did not deny them and even the source (Gameindustry.biz) noticed that:

"In an email to GamesIndustry.biz, BGC director Peter Naessens did not directly deny the allegation that the report was leaked to the press"
