Why am I a COPPA user? What's the age cap for this?

You are a COPPA user because you indicated that you were born after March 24, 1998, when you first registered. The age cap is 13.

I was born in 97. My profile even says I'm 14.
And don't people under 13 need to send in a fax or something? I never had to do that...

You were asked when you registered whether you were born before or after such-and-such a date. You probably hit the wrong one.

Does that restrict him in any way?

Apparently he can still access Forum 62...

Hm. Probably. Is there a way to change it?
And what kind of restrictions do I have?

COPPA users have the same rights in general. I'm not sure if F62 is supposed to be closed to them or not, that's up to mith.

F62 works for me.
If mith decides to change this, I hope he can get me out of COPPA first :/

Then why even have it? Probably legal obligated to.

Yes, it's a legal requirement for sites that operate in the U.S.

You'll probably have to send him some sort of proof that you're not actually under the age limits - ping him by PM or email.

Oh this site runs on IPB3, with the user-joinable usergroups rather than having to get admin-sorted into them.

vurry nice.
