Age limit for registration to site!

I think that the site should only allow 16+ year olds to register because the younger guys tend to be immature (I was too at this age) and just don't take anything in etc.

This rule has been enstated at www.MuscleTalk.co.uk with success and the site is very well run.

Just an idea.



Age 19, Weight 132lbs , height 5'4", 8% bodyfat, 100% natural.

Deadlift - 274lbs (NEW PB 9/8/2005)
Squat - 274lbs (NEW PB 19/8/2005)
Bench press - 154lbs
Total - 702lbs @ 132lbs

Why should you limit Education based on age because of a few bad seeds? If you don't like what someone has to say ignore them.

Welcome to the real world, where you have to do this everyday. The Internet is no different.



Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

I agree. I think it is great if kids start exercising at a young age. I started at 13-14. I really wish I had something like this when I was growing up. It would have saved me from a lot of wasted years trying to "figure it out".

Age doesn't have any correlation with maturity. Bad idea, IMO.

Exactly. I don't really see too many kids causing trouble, it's usually older people.

This is so retarded. If you make this rule, all they're gonna do is lie about their age.

Yes but not having the rule seems like Prince is encouraging the presence of teenagers. Well, I dont see nothing wrong with it though, like someone said age doesnt mean maturity, I was very smart when I was younger, then I became an adult.

I think it's a bad idea, look at Ihateschool and Squall..Squagell...oh whatever they are both under 17 I believe and they act much more mature than me...and I'm a 40 year old hag.
