The question was should they be allowed to promote.. not should they be allowed to gamble.. looking back to the polls thread.. I’m pretty sure there are alotta folks here promoting, that don’t gamble at all.
If they are promoting, then the only laws I can see that they are breaking, are the same laws the rest of us keep an eye on every day..
If they are playing, then they are breaking a law.. yet, they are minors, so they only risk being tried as a minor..(if in the US) and having a minor record (the kind that politely disapears upon request as soon as you become an adult)
The actual question was, should he sell banner space to this person who mysteriously said he was 16.
I don’t really see why he even mentioned his age unless there was some payment issue about why he didn’t have whatever form of payment requested (can you have neteller that young?). That alone would make me not do the deal, if that is what happened…just from a bad gut feeling.
Anyway, if there were no payment issue…I don’t see what the big deal is. I can’t remember any PPC SE that makes you agree to being 21 before advertising on gambling keywords? Or even a domain parking sponsor? Same thing really.
