you have 2 choices.

1) we only host T and lower rated videos. Also, any RP video also may be on the blacklist.

2) we add an age gate and host M rated videos. I want to make a smart age gate that is based on your profile if you are logged in. We would have to check to see if that is allowed by the ESRB.

I'm fine with the age restriction. I'm 18, so I can see most of the restricted stuff on GameTrailers and it's not that big of a deal to me if I can't see a video anyway. Plus, if it's based on my profile if I'm logged in, then I shouldn't have to enter my age every time I want to watch a restricted video, right? That'll make VGC a lot easier to use than GT.

that is what I would like to do, but I have only skimmed through the age gate requirement docs, and haven't looked up the fine details from the ESRB to see if it is allowed under the guildlines. If we don't follow the proper guidlines then we could get in trouble with the ESRB and publishers who are trying to protect their industry by taking matters in their own hands rather than waiting for the government to make laws.
