Poll: Internet Age Verification Tools. What do you do?

[Bucht]

I lie, just because I'm to lazy to search for my actual birth date.

 

[slashdotdot]

I actually tell truth, even though i have to scroll down to december.
Well i have told the truth since i was 18.

 

[evilneko]

If the date is already populated, I click the year and hit page down a time or two.

Otherwise I just put in random numbers, making sure to scroll down on the year.

I do not put my true birthdate in anywhere except interacting with my bank or maybe a .gov, eg when applying for financial aid or filing taxes online.

In fact, I put as little factual information about myself online as possible.

 

[Rack]

I pick a random age over 18. Sometimes I get depressed about how recent an age I end up picking because scrolling down to my real age would take too long.

 

[Feylynn]

I'm 22 so it is merely an awkward set of clumsy drop down menus hardwired to keep me from my desire!

If it let's me type then I just type the truth, if it's a drop down then I have stopped caring and just drag it down to Jan 1st 1342 or whatever so that it will load my game trailer or what have you.
Occasionally I'll be feeling patient and put the proper one in regardless but I do not dislike them less because I have been younger then 18 before and know that it is not that hard to just lie and they are pointless.

 

[fenrizz]

Usually 1/1 random year.

If 1/1 is not standrad then it is random date, random year.

I cannot be bothered to click my actual age.

Especially not on Steam, where I am logged in with my actual age.
Why on earth would it ask me for my age then?
Does not make sense to me at all.

 

[RemuValtrez]

As I'm of legal age, I generally put in my actual date of birth, unless I just really don't care.

 

[GodsAndFishes]

When I was too young, I lied. Once I turned 18 for about a year I put in my real date. Now I'm lazy and just put in a random date that I know will pass.

 

[Mr.Numbers]

Born on a leap day once. This confuses the computer for some things so

My name is MrNumbers Liddell, and I was born 1.1.1900.

My birthday cake looks a bit like this:

(Made in the same amount of time I save by not listing my real age)

 

[Nouw]

I do it as randomly as I can.

 

[ShadowsofHope]

As I am above the legal age, I don't have to lie make creative birth dates any longer.

However, before that period of time.. pick a random date in the early 1900's, keep the day and the month of my actual birth, and I am good to go!

..What? Everyone did it..

 

[chstens]

I'm legal for everything, so I can't be bothered to put in my actual age. i just put in whatever shows up. Once I was born in 1901.

 

[GundamSentinel]

Sometimes I put in my actual birth date, when I'm lazy I do something random in the 1970's. I'm old enough for everything, so what the hell...

 

[DoomyMcDoom]

I'm legal for everything so...I put in my actual birth-date.

This^

Because I rarely come across 'em and it really isn't a big hassle...

 

[Bob_Dobb]

6.6.1991 date of the Lucifer Alpha outbreak in the original Snatcher... because I can.

 

[teqrevisited]

Give the mouse wheel a spin and wherever it ends up, that's when I was born. Only for the random d.o.b checks though, for registering with forums and the like I put in my real one. Except for Youtube because I cranked it up so that it wouldn't bar me from age restricted videos. It thinks I'm 25.

 

[The Electro Gypsy]

I used to lie, now I don't have to

 

[Dalek Caan]

When I was younger I did lie, but at that point I was playing games like Gears of War all the time, but now that I am 18 I need no longer lie to the internet.

 

[Sjakie]

I'm legal with everything but i still lie.
If i can get away with just filling in/choosing a year of choice: i am often born at 1-1-1901
