I just cut mine (mostly gray) off this summer, dyed my hair red, and Look 30 years younger, but I bet I could still get in without and ID check.

Just ask them a quiz with questions:
-Where were you when JFK was shot? (Although if the poster was English or Australian he would be excepted from this question) 
-Do any of you know whom the pope before John Paul II was?
-How many times has John Paul II been shot?
-How many times has QE2 been shot?
-Chernobyl. Everything you know.
-Where was the 1971 olympics hosted? 
-Did Guam exist as a country in 71'?
-Did you register for Apolyton in 1970

"-Where were you when JFK was shot? (Although if the poster was English or Australian he would be excepted from this question)"
And Belgians? Are they excempted?
As for the age check, the registration date should suffice, because it's obviously that someone who registered in 1970 can't be any less old than 30.

Why don't we make an Elite forum, give everyone access, and kick out users as soon as they prove their *******ness?

That wouldn't work. I could get it, even though I'm under 30. Oh and here's some low-quality posting in order to boost my sagging post count.

A forum for such old people would just be a nesting ground for spam- all the senile old fools would just start talking to themselves, responding to their own threads and so on...

One question remains - why? Just to post threads about things over 30s talk about? It seems we could just post them in the existing forums, the younguns wouldn't be interested in boring old drivel anyway.

I have a better idea how about a "Have More Brains than Gonads" forum. You qualify if you have more coherent logical thoughts than you have thoughts about sex and uncalled for violence.
Hmm, it would not work out though, I can only think of two posters that would qualify, one for an overabundance of the first, the other for lack of the second.

I admit I am immature in some regards. Over 30 is not for me. Of course I'm only 28.
I still can't believe someone mistaked my for being 17 on these forums. Am I that immature? Don't answer that  My sig says it all.
