Hello I think it would be great to have a way to identify age on the forum trade and sales sights,it seems I sometimes deal with what I think is a young person,just buy the way they handle their communications and have no ethics at all, most are super standup on this sight but then you run upon what I think is the kid next door. Thanks Dwight

There is an option to add your birthday and hence show age in the profile settings, yet it is not mandatory.

Even if it were mandatory, I don't think it would help a whole lot since there is no real way to verify that what is inputted is accurate.

I would suggest adding something along the lines of "must be 18 or older to purchase or trade" in your sales thread. May help, may not.

Also, if you get an odd feeling about a person's communication or that they lack ethics just don't deal with them.
