Yep! I'm just 10 years old! I always see people talking dirty, one guy walled me: "I wanna lick your butt!" and others talking about s**!
I don't like seeing it, either, but honestly? You have to confirm that you are 17 when you download the game. We shouldn't have to be concerned about anyone under 17 in the chat because of that. Yes, I know, kids lie, which is why I think if you advertise that you are not in fact 17 that you should get a ban. All it takes is ONE parent to be offended by something said in world chat and then the lawsuits start. Just that in itself would eliminate a lot of the "looking for boys/girls 12-15. Wall me for ffm." Jmho.
Yes, there are. And this is just like any other game where one outraged parent finds out what their kid is doing and sues. There are lawsuits all the time against game companies when despite any warnings and age ratings a kid was caught on the game and their parents blew their tops.
These are apples rules, not the games. Pretty sure no angry parents will be able to sue apple, who'd have some of the best lawyers in the world. Our tou and apples rules together are pretty foolproof
No child in today's world listens to the age laws, and if a kid wants a game that is 18 at the age of 10 then his mum usually won't bat an eye, I was playing GTA at the age of 10 and I there is nothing wrong with my upbringing or anything. What I'm saying is that kids WILL play this game, and even if it isn't RA's outside responsibility you will sure well regret not doing anything when a pedophile or a group GROOM a child or meet them THROUGH this game. Just think you could stop it by silencing and stopping OBVIOUS issues. These things happen...
I think we should also have the ability to change other player's avatars. I still want the ability to purchase other people's status messages too!
