Ominous

@Evilgrayson I was going to reply with this as well. Age of consent even varies between US states, and Romeo & Juliet laws make things even weirder. However, this would be more like sexual communications and there may be stricter or less strict regulations than the age of consent in various jurisdictions. Sort of like how there is fraud and then there is wire fraud or how a jurisdiction can have an age of consent under 18 but minors still can’t perform sexually in front of an audience or for a camera. Someone with more legal knowledge would have to opine.

EDIT: I should also point out that Bahrain and Cameroon have an age of consent of 21. So even a minimum age of 18 could arguably not be safe from liability.

Age of majority (adulthood) varies even more. Alabama, Nebraska, South Korea, and several Canadian provinces have ages of majority of 19. New Zealand and Thailand have it set at 20. Mississippi, Puerto Rico, Singapore, and several African and Central American/Caribbean countries have it set at 21.

@Ominous On the forum PBP and Discord game side of the RP world, I see a lot of 21-25+ minimum age.

I started MU*ing in elementary school but I was 100% raised wrong.

@Evilgrayson Fair. As an American I sometimes forget the rest of the world exists except in so far as their time zones are inconvenient to my rp.

I suppose an easy way to see if someone is 25+ is to show them various kinds of painkiller and ask which they take regularly.

@Pavel Ask them to name their favorite two Nirvana songs that aren’t Smells Like Team Spirit.
