Hi guys


Its being interesting to see all these ideas... i like the one where 
unauthorized people become phantom for real... they dont see anything while 
they pass by, but you get a bunch of phantoms around your place, acting like 
you´re not there... good for a Medium episode!
Can you imagine a number of nasty people going to meet on places where they 
know there is mature activity just to disturb? Of course that would 
happen...

No, the only way for this idea to work is for the unauthorized people become 
not only phantom, but invisible too. Or better, owner having a toggle to 
turn them visible/invisible.

I like this idea because it would put an end on that ban walls I hate so 
much (and that absurd version that asks you to pay to pass thru!! Yes, go 
medieval on them :) )


But what really makes me mad is the origin of the issue... why not trust 
people word? If someone says he is over 18, he should be. If not, where are 
the parents? Why I, who decided to not have children, have to take care of 
other people children who were raised in a way to believe they can lie? 
That´s not good... I know I´m a dreamer, but I would like to see the current 
system to stay on, and parents to do for real the work they proposed to 
do... or stop having children!! Planet is overpopulated already, so it would 
be good for everybody...

Ok, back to reality... why not implement the age verification for everybody? 
that would simplify all, wouldnt? Maybe even working it together with other 
systems, like the invisible/phantom (I like the idea of minors walking 
around, it´s realistic). (ah, yes, to say it all, I´m not against having 
minors seeing or doing sex... dont think sex is anything nasty or horrible. 
But violence.. thats another subject, that should be looked at with a lot of 
attention.)
