EverytimeI visit a site to download game trailers or even official game websites they always ask for an age check, i mean i would put in my own age once or twice but after that it'll just get completely annoying. Do people actually put their birth dates in or they type in random dateseg. 03/03/1903, I mean thats completely stupid, even a 12 year old would know to type in a completely random age that ould satisfy the bypassand how in any way does that protect the people who are underage in any way? Not only that it also p***es the ***** out of the people who are actually the correct age.

No, because it takes less time to input "1/1/1900"

I avoid websites that consantly ask me for my age. I used to watch AVGN on GameTrailers, and it made me put in my age for every single video. This was so ridiculous, because I was signed in with my account, which had my birthday. Why couldn't it have just had a "Confirm Birthday" button, or better yet, just automatically confirm my birthday based on my account information?

nope, I'm a 24 year old on the internet. Age verification is just annoying.

I put january 1st, 1970. That way if anyone's looking at the results, they'll think there was an error.

I never put my real one in. I'm 20 and it is easier to say I was born in the 1980's, but keep my birthday as the 1st of Jan

I am old enough as well but it is still easier to just put a random year in and move along instead of taking the time to put your exact date in

Nah, I scroll down to somewhere in the 80s (takes one scroll usually).

Edit: that's unless I'm making a profile for a site, then I'll put my real age.

I just change the year. The only reason they exist is for the website's protection.. and not so they can hunt you down in case you lied. At least that's what I'm guessing.

i just do whatever's good to see the content. I hate that your age only saves if you accidentally put it too low, but you have to costantly retype it when it's at an accesible age.

Usually it's just for a movie I'm watching (R Rated), I'm old enough to watch it so I just put the year in. I leave the Month and Day as 1/1.

for trailers game content etc no. I am old enough but it takes longer to put my REAL dob in, than it does to quickly select a random DOB and 1960 or something.

These days I'm pretty much always truthful. I'm 19 now, so for the most part I don't have to worry. However, when I was 13, it was a different story. ;)

I just quickly fill it in with a random date, as I'm lazy.

I'm old enough, but don't care enough to properly fill in my exact age.

It's not necessary for me to put in a fake birth date anymore, but of course I did before then.
