For 25 years, the UK has been enforcing rules that were not in the books. So all the people that got convicted for buying things like movies and games while underage have been wrongfully convicted. Basically, it's anything goes in the UK right now. If you're a 12 year old British boy who wants to buy a copy of Backdoor Sluts 9, you can do it. If you want to buy a game that has been denied a ratings classification, you can do it.

Am I the only one that finds this hilarious?

Ahh, the sheer stupidity of humanity. I love it~  :V

Serious note, looks like the UK doesn't want to lose thier old ways WHICH is a possiblity.

Workshop/DA/YT/Photobucket なにかんがえてるの!?
So its about ass now huh? EVEN THE ASS HAS 'EXCEEDED'!

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.

Really, the less censoring the better. Best way to get kids (people in general?) to want something is to forbid it.

even though it's techincally legal to buy a game or movie regardless of your age, UK distributors agreed they will continue to abide by the rules.

yeah, just like how eroge developers "agreed" to no longer depict [twin slasher].

while i'm sure the big distributors will follow the rules to keep their image, lesser known stores and such may not be in on the agreement. at least, that's what i'd think.

Well...at least now when I criticize my own government for being a bunch of corporation-owned whiny bastards who don't give a rat's ass about the people who vote them in (why should they, it's a 2-party system), I can remember that the rest of the world isn't any better.

I'd be pretty pissed if I were fined/imprisoned over an unenforceable law, though.
