So I go on the Last Day site and I accidentally click 1991 instead of 1990 and you can't even refresh the damn thing and put the correct date.

****.

Anybody know a way around this? I'm not going to clear my cookies for obvious reasons (loads of other saved passwords, etc.)

I can see a 12 year old kid easily just putting they were born in 1970 just to see the page.
Seriously. It's too easy for them xP

Clear your cookies and your cache and it should ask you again.

Just go into your Cookies (the aptly-titled "Cookies") and delete the file linking to that website--that way you don't get rid of everything. (Go [drive letter]:\Documents and Settings\[Username]\Cookies, scope it out, and delete it.)

Yeah I've done that before, I usually just pick a date really fast and I picked like 1996.

What's really annoying though, is on the gametrailers website you have to enter your age for every video you watch.

I just choose:

12/12/1980 It's faster too, instead of finding my birthdate.

Hate to be a grammer-whore but, title is spelled as such, not tittle. That said, when I'm old, I shall choose, old school.

first off, yes it's pointless and annoying.. Secondly, if you can't access the American page, just access the UK page, it's the exact same page without asking for birthday cause Europe doesn't care, the jolly blokes. .

Erm.. Pressed back, clicked on it & pressed backspace and changed it whenever I get my stuff wrong.

i usually close the tab and go back to the site, it doesn't work like being banned from a forum, though what would I know?

Simple answer: Be older.

I hate underage kids in online games.

Having age barriers on websites is pretty pointless, however.

I'm honestly wondering why they waste time putting those age things on websites, a four year old could choose 1835!

Europe doesent care because you got to be 16 i think to drink alcohol so i dont think they really care like they do in the US. So yeah doesent matter to me becasue im 21 about to be 22 but yeah .

yeah there should be a DNA sample or a fingerprint scanner on each computer or something...

You guys don't seem to realise the age thing is to cover the website's owner. Sure any kid can put in 1890, but by law they are lying about their age and thus the website is not responsible for any adult material they may have witnessed.
It's the equivilant of going into a store and buying alcohol underage, but instead of handing over ID, you're declaring, fraudulently, that you are of the age limit to buy that alcohol.
Of course unlike the real world, all the website can do is take your word for it, so it really is just to be in the clear of the law and putting responsibility on the visitor. Not that it amounts to anything in real life for the visitor except slight annoyance, it just prevents the website from being shut down.

Also name me a European country which makes it legal to buy alcohol at 16.

Why didn't you just put 1901?

Also, if you are over 100 years old, you are out of luck. Although the option 1900 is available, it does not let you enter the site if you were born in 1900. :-/

But if he was born in 1990 then the guys 19. Don't think he qualifies for underage.

That or 18... Depending if his birth month is after May, or later on in May.

ha. age gates are pointless -all they do is block the people who have mental-issues(no offense) and people who accidentally hit the wrong year. its sort of stupid that they even put them on

Oh, I've heard of a library, isn't that where people used to go to access non-digitalalized information?

Wisdom Thumbs

By law, they have to have age gates. Right? I seem to remember something about that a few years ago.

It's still a laughable idea.

12/12/1980 It's faster too, instead of finding my birthdate.

1/1/1990 :)

Coleyman

1/1/1990 :)

1tab1tab1990 :)

That completely solves almost any age restriction thingys. The fundamental flaw with them is that people will just lie anyway - they have no real use other than to slow you down from viewing the content.
