As I have stated before, there should be certain parental guidance for those under the age of 10. When viewing the terms and conditions for Blade Zenon, before you download the game onto your computer you should understand the simple guidelines and be able to agree to act accordingly. Blade Zenon is a family friendly game after all. A child may not know or understand the guidelines, so it is best if a parent can guide their kid to playing the game without them doing so without their permission. (Resulting in not getting sued by parents in the future perhaps).

Agreed. Not sure how difficult it would be to implement, but if possible, maybe accounts under the age of 10 need to be confirmed through a parental email.

Even if this was implemented, kids under the age of 10 could still get around this by creating an email address or using one that they already have instead of a parent email address.

True, this won't be enforced greatly. However, a warning shall appear that if you are not above the age of 10 if anything should happen (parents trying to sue and what not) then it won't be vaild since they agreed to the terms and conditions.

Right.

Fair point; in all honesty, there's no surefire way to make sure that players under the age of 10 have parental guidance to play seeing as how many parents tend to not monitor their child's activity on the web, or don't find out everything. Having at least a set of rules/terms & conditions would show that we care about the safety of those using the internet. As Nanami pointed out, it could work in our favor in case some parent/guardian decides to take legal action for whatever reason they may have. This also means that it's important for the individual that would formulate said terms and conditions to try to cover all angles- lawyers are sneaky.

Registering something for a copyright/trademark probably depends on factors such as location since acquiring one most likely isn't the same everywhere. As for a terms of agreement, they don't have to have a legal effect, but rather act as a disclaimer/guidelines to inform players of rules and the consequences of not following them.

We want to make this legit as possible. True; one problem with acquiring an official trademark/copyright is the payment. Another factor in acquiring copyright for the game is that the copyright goes towards certain bits of the game- in most cases, coding "is protected as a literary work, and the artwork and sound are protected as an audiovisual work". (according to this:http://www.newmediarights.org/guide/legal/Video_Games_law_Copyright_Trademark_Intellectual_Property) Another link regarding U.S. copyright www.copyright.gov/fls/fl108.html

Well it is just so that in case parents try to sue they won't be able to.
