It’s been my experience on this site that when you make a character, you’re asked to add warnings for various graphic content, and for many of us, we do. Every box is checked, every option is written out. Yet, despite that, warning messages pop up on the Home Screen, and often, it’s asking to add more warnings, even when there is no more warnings to add.
While we still should have those warnings and flags, there are a lot of profiles on this site that are geared towards adults, and if the warnings are constantly being asked for, obviously shouldn’t be viewed by someone under the age. The question is, is there any way to add a button in character settings that would prevent underage users from seeing those pages, much like the groups have the “No one under *certain age* can view/apply to this”? Option. I was just wondering if something like that could be added to the Character Settings page.
Dually, it would act as a protection for the adults who adamantly do not want to RP with underage players from being contacted, or even duped into an RP with someone underage, even by those writing under anonymous profiles.
Thanks for reading, and I hope to spark a discussion! Let me know your thoughts!

If you're asking for an option to make it so underage people can't view your character profiles, that is already a thing. When editing a character's settings (the same section where you can set the name, gender, tagline, and if it's anonymous or public, etc) you can select profile visibility. Along with the options like "draft mode" and "published to all", there are "only logged in users" and "only logged in users in my age group." You'd want the latter.
You can also pick in your privacy settings to make it so only people in your age group can message you.
If you mean to only mark specific pages on a given character profile as unavailable to underage people... I have no comment, really. Maybe it could be added? Idk.

Well, thank you for that, I genuinely hadn’t seen that before!
But out of curiosity, what is the “age group?” For example, I’m in my 30s, so is it only like other 30 year olds, or is it genuinely just like “they’re not 18, so no access” kinda thing?
Just asking for clarification!
