Okay, take a deep breath and let it out. :biggrin:
A question was posed about children of members participation.
I am glad to have the younger members interested in the forum and the craft so I have worked with the "Big Boss" to come up with this:
Because we moderate the forum to PG-13, and to comply with the Children's On-Line Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), we do not accept registration from anyone under the age of 13.
Members who want their children to participate in IAP activities are responsible for providing and controlling access to the forum for them. They can sign up their children to participate according to rules established by the member officiating the contest.
For this contest (others may handle it differently) I will accept the names of the underage participants being posted in the sign up thread (this one) by the parent member. The parent member needs to post the Child's intention to participate and to keep the the two separate the child non-member will be referred to in the following way: Member name-child
Ultimately the parent member will be responsible for ensuring the child understand and follow all contest rules. If there is something I failed to answer I will answer those question via PM as needed.
I'll now go clean out my messages and prepare for the onslaught of PM's. :biggrin:
