A lot of users are broadcasting to the world that they are breaking Wikia's age rule... what do I do? Should I... ban them? I don't really want to but I don't want this wikia to get in trouble... 16:34, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Tell them not to mention their age anymore if it's under 13. Then remove all the comments, and do QUICKLY, ASAP. If you ban all of them... you'll do the wiki unrepairable harm. Remember that. Now, please, take my advice. Marcaline 16:58, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * There is a whole blog where people just post their ages over and over. 17:12, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's true. Delete those comments and put a warning on it. And if you have to delete the blog, delete it. That's always better then having to ban dozens of people... I wish I knew another solution, but I don't. Marcaline 17:15, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * It is out of my hands, I will not jeopardize the entire wikia over a few users. 17:23, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * It's not just a few users and you know that darn well... it's like, 60% of the wiki's users. Probably more. Marcaline 17:28, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * PS: I don't even know why you had to bring this up in the first place, you're not doing anyone a favour here. Marcaline 17:29, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * As I said on my talk page since for some reason you've split this discussion into two pages, I brought it up because there is already record of me responding to the blog in which countless users posted their age. 17:30, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Then delete your own comments on that blog too. And mine, while you're at it. Then this forum. Easy, no? Marcaline 17:36, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * On a wikia nothing is ever truly deleted. Except images maybe... 17:37, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm aware of the fact that admins can dig through deleted stuff. But why give them a reason for doing so? Marcaline 17:39, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * If that is the course of action decided upon then I will be for it, but I know that I will not be the reason for the wikia getting deleted or at least my account getting banned by the wikia staff for not enforcing basic wikia rules. 17:46, May 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Wait wait. What the cabbage is this "age rule" you guys are talking about. snafli.jpg Lord of the wikis   (Afliador8) pehiss.jpg 18:16, May 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Wikia Terms of Use
 * Which should be read before you even create an account. And hiding evidence of under-aged users is not going to make things better, that is also underhanded. -- Bunai82 (talk) 18:22, May 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * This is going to be a problem, many users have also told their ages to me on the chat and most of them are under the age limit. As to having these users banned im not sure, but if not banning them could mean the wikia's demise then it seems like the only likely solution.

 * Don't act like this is new to you guys... or to wikia for that matter. These people were younger then 13 a year ago, and they still are now. So what? We've known this for a long time. It never was an issue before on the site. Plenty of staff members from wikia (wikia bosses) have been here. I've even seen them RENAMING ACCOUNTS OF PEOPLE WHO HAD WRITTEN ON THEIR USER PAGES THAT THEY WERE YOUNGER THEN 13, for Glob's sake... doesn't seem like they care all that much. If they would really delete the wiki over this, they would have done so already. They haven't even warned us yet, and they usually do that first. No, wait: they ALWAYS warn first. Especially if it's a wiki as big as this one. Also, this is a wiki about a kid's show on Cartoon Network. Sure they'll have some leniency because of that. On regular show wiki I have even seen MODS younger then 13. Nobody seemed to care. ;) Marcaline 18:24, May 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Demise of the wiki?
 * Half of them only comment on blog entries and use chat. While another half has trouble with wiki text. I have no problem with competent younger users that are helpful, or those that create an account to have more feature access as oppose to be an IP, but those who clearly show their age should think twice about interacting on sites such as Wikia and or Facebook (as an example). -- Bunai82 (talk) 18:27, May 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think an otherwise fine user should be banned just because some silly rule says they are. Now if they are causing trouble it would be a whole different story, sure. Marcaline 18:28, May 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Even so these are rules we still have to follow, like Marcaline said it may not cause a problem and the wikia staff might not even consider any form of action, but that doesn't mean we should ignore this rule entirely. If felinoel thinks this could be an issue then we should assume that it will be. I personally don't have a problem with this, but like I said before these are rules we have to follow and if the wikia staff doesn't have a problem with under aged users then great, but until then we should not assume they will fully support that.
