| Message | Parents should know who these games are suitable for when buying them for their children. |

| Message | We must agree, this is a sop to corporations to allow them to exploit children, it's not a freedom increase. We allow parents to buy whatever they feel is appropriate for their child, but they should know what they're buying. |
| Date | 17:25:35, December 28, 2007 CET | From | Order Of The Illuminati | To | Debating the Video Games |
| Message | This is more meddling by the State, playing babysitter. Parents have the responsibility to educate themselves about the video games, media and toys their children are exposed to, and make decisions accordingly. This should not be the job of the government. |
