I still don't understand your defeatist attitude. I've been a forum mod on other sites too and yes, the unwanted will always try to evade the bans/rules, that's no reason not to make or enforce them. If you give up, they win. At the *very* least, with the 18+ rule, they can't admit it if they're under and that would help right there. Kids have to learn that just because they want something doesn't mean they should have it and they shouldn't be rewarded for acting like a spoiled brat. Make the rule, ban the ones we can verify now and deal with the brats after, IMHO.

Attention to the new OWNER: Ban the Minors ... while I realize its not easy to judge the age of a member, I feel whenever it is obvious they are minors, (and there are currently MANY in here), they should be permanently banned from Cannabis.com ... it sends the wrong messages, it is Illegal, and draws the wrong kind of attention to this website ... we need to present a public conception of us, as responsible people ... it will prove to be impossible to ever get MJ legalization, etc, if we maintain this "teen stoner" "ghetto thug" image ...
