Little jack1ripper is 12 years old and a member of DF.

Maybe DF needs an age limit.

But then again, how do you confirm when a 12 year old types in a date that says he is 18 or 19??

Its a forum, who knows how old he/she is, I will keep a watch though.
Difficult to impose an age limit, how would we ever be able to verify?

Because he posted it?? That's how I know.

And you confirmed what I said: how is one to verify age?

Is he really 12 or just having a laugh? His other post stated he saw 5 car crashes on the way to work. He said his spelling was poor cos of his age but that means nada. Might just be messing - the beauty of internet forums - no way to be certain of age, sex, etc, etc.

easy to tell...that would make him/her a fifth grader. Although there is a lot of fifth grader stuff on DF forum. The "vocabulary" and "knowlege/opinions" will give it away.

Can't see what a 12 year old would be doing on this forum...unless wanting to say something "about the persons above you"...
