birthday

Age verification

While most of Furscape is open to the public and is subject to rules similar to those governing real life and behavior in public space, there may be areas or activities that are 'adult-only' due to content. Entry to those is restricted to players who have used the @BIRTHDAY program to state their legal, real-life birthday for the record. Upon successful completion, a flag is permanently attached to the player's avatar object. The information will be only be shared as “registered eighteen or older” or “not registered as eighteen or older”.

Purpose

We realize that this is not an ironclad proof of age; we also believe that an ambitious player could forge proof of identity and submit altered documents to us, just as they can in real life (fake ID cards for underage drinking, for example). However, we'll take your word for it unless you give us reason to believe otherwise. Between use of the @BIRTHDAY program and the 'Adult Themes' rules that are intended to prevent exploitation of minors (real-life or otherwise), we believe that Furscape is a safe place to interact with others.

What you will see

Enter the year of your birth (for example, 1968 or just 68):

<birth month goes here>

Enter the day of month that you were born:

<birth day goes here>

You say you were born on <day month year> . That would mean you are about <age> years old, give or take a couple days.
