Age Restriction

[Jack Bastide]

Can I restrict certain Forums to only people
that are 18+

I realize that I am taking their word for it on the Birthday

There is no way to do that out of the box.

 

[Jack Bastide]

ok but i guess I can get it custom programmed ?

 

[Paul B]

Yes, it would be possible with custom development.

There are addons that cater to it. I had a nifty feature added to @Xon 's Moderator Essentials which ban users after they fill in their date of birth. In my experience most underage users do not see it coming in this context. And are later banned because of it. If you combine it with a good multiple accounts protocol then you have a winner.
Users are automatically unbanned when they turn 18 years old. You can set a grace period, so that you do not ban people who are about to turn 18.
