Terms of Service and Moderation on GSoM...

I get that GSoM is a "Family Show", but this is the only 'Family' oriented blog on SB Nation that I've been in especially when compared to McCovey Chronicles, Niner Nation, and Silver and Black Pride. However, the Terms of Service officially say under Point 9 in the Privacy Policy section that:

The Sites are not intended for and may not be used by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13 and we do not target the Sites to children under the age of 13.

Those under the age of 13, therefore, are violating the ToS and Privacy Policy of SB Nation and first of all shouldn't be affiliated with any SB Blog. It is inevitable that a sports fan, specifically in a high paced game of basketball, will drop a cuss word here or there in what appears to be a site filled with raging opinions, fandome, and testosterone. You can't expect a Saint of a fan, especially one's who specifically look for a home place to talk their teams. It's not like those 13 and above never hear these words in school, work, or in the public. Also, not to point it out directly, but there are specific rules against Copyright stuff, which is never enforced here.

I don't want this discussion to get out of hand so those who want to voice their opinions, please be civil. But to the staff of GSoM all I ask for is more leniency or for clarification on this issue.

This FanPost is a submission from a member of the mighty Golden State of Mind community. While we're all here to throw up that W, these words do not necessarily reflect the views of the GSoM Crew. Still, chances are the preceding post is Unstoppable Baby!
