Age warning/restriction on Projects
There should be a note you can set on your projects to determine what age should be playing /watching them. For example, I'm making a halo 3rd person shooter which contains violence. It has guns, shooting and killing in it and don't want younger viewers to play it. There should be a flag to say this is recommended for people above age 15 or whatever or it will check your birth date in your profile settings and tell you it is restricted to whatever age and not let you view it. I have already made a warning screen when the flag is clicked but I feel that isn't enough.
This is my warning screen but you have to click play to see it which isn't very useful.

Re: Age warning/restriction on Projects
Kinda agree. Some projects may be inappropriate for younger viewers. Maybe not a restriction, but a warning that comes up before you go to the project. Such as "This project is recommended for people of ages over 13" or whatever. This is a pretty good idea!

Re: Age warning/restriction on Projects
Be respectful. When sharing projects, remember that people of many different ages and backgrounds will see your creations.
There shouldn't be even any project that has content that has content that would not appear on a PG rated movie. There could be a warning for a project that has content that would appear on a PG movie but content that wouldn't appear on a G movie.

Woo, even better minecraft clone! | I feel that programming is better than animation, because you can interact with games but not animations.
