Should we have an age input? #180

Sure it's easy to lie, but it might cover our asses legally.

It might be good for NSFW stuff, but also Reddit has a requirement that users must be over 13. I don't think they don't ask for an age when signing up, but still. Maybe we'll fall under the same legal genre? Below is from their privacy policy.

"Although we welcome users from all walks of life, reddit is not aimed at children, and the United States government has put limits on our ability to accept users under a certain age through the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998. Individuals under the age of 13 may not create an account with us. If you believe someone 12 or younger is using our site without parental consent, please contact us."

No for now on the user input, but consult a lawyer later.
