age restrictions are protecting us. I never had a problem with that except in the video library, where you have to be 18 to enter without parents >

Well, to answer your first complaint, there's a REAL reason for that. Usually it has sexual content or heavy language. So no.
And that also has a reason. One of the reasons we have mods is to keep certain content away from the younger people. Well if the mods are younger, then they get to see all of that. Which kinda defeats the purpose. And older people are usually more responsible. Not always, but usually. You should be grateful they brought it down to 13

Although now I'm 13, so it doesnt matter for me anymoreThat wouldn't work for mod, because the ST has to check with your parents before you officially become a mod.
Unless your guardian lied.

You shouldn't complain about that, you can't watch it because it's been flagged multiple times.
Remember the images on Scratch? You have to be 18+ to see that stuff on youtube. Be thankful you are NOT 18

But they'd have to be a pretty bad guardian to do that. Considering some of the things mods have to deal with, most guardians wouldn't let their child be a mod at any age, let alone at an age where they're actually breaking the rules. Take the recent troll attack as an example; they wouldn't want their child to have to have the responsibility of cleaning that sort of stuff up anyway, but especially not when they're under 13.

I don't think so. I think older people (teens) are more trustworthy and most likely spam less than younger kids.
They may be more spamless but, there are many reasons for age restrictions other then spam.
For example, if a 4 foot teen were to go on a roller-coaster that you have to be 5 feet to ride, they would have the possibility of flying out. :p

People, there is a difference between maturity, and what substances your body can handle -_-

Without age restrictions, children would be scarred for life.
