I feel like COPPA should be removed, for a number of reasons.


 * 1: There are those on here that are underaged, yet they aren't banned. I do understand that they are very mature, and I respect that! But on the other hand, some good users have been banned because they've been less than 13. Consistency should be kept, and it would be easy to keep the good underaged users and ban the bad apples anyways for breaking other rules.


 * 2: Even if COPPA was around, there would still be a number of underaged users under the radar. A number of kids can be clever, even if they're 10 or something like that. On the other hand, there's been contradictions considering banned users who may not even be underaged at all. COPPA is a tough policy to keep under check, so we might as well drop it.


 * 3: We don't NEED to enforce COPPA, like Sactage said. And also, we aren't supposed to force personal information out of a user. So there's no point in trying, unless the guys who made COPPA come in here pissed as all fuck
