- # [09:25] * ChanServ sets mode: +o benward
- # [09:26] <zerq> i was browing on going to log onto wolfenstein.com recently.. and ran into on of thoes age gates... so i started filling it in and accidentaly wrote "82 80 1982" instead of "82 08 1982" and the site locked me out.... so i got annoyed... but i started thinking.... would it not make sense if the movie and games industry came together with the browser vendors to make a microformat...
- # [09:26] <zerq> to do age rating on sites which the parental controls of the browser can then pick up on...
- # [09:27] <zerq> that makes a lot more sense to me and feels like it would work very well as a microformat.
- # [09:28] <zerq> anyone here?
- # [09:44] <zerq> or has someone allready thaught of this and utterly failed to grab anyones attention about the idea... seams unlikely.. to me it feels like such a perfect solution...
- # [09:44] <zerq> why is no one ever around when you have a neat idea!
- # [09:45] <zerq> sigh
- # [09:46] <@benward> Hi Zerq :)
- # [09:46] <zerq> wow someones alive :3
- # [09:46] <@benward> Indeed.
- # [09:46] <@benward> Well, actually, I'm quite sick, so maybe only 50
- # [09:46] <@benward> 50%, rather
- # [09:46] <@benward> As for your idea…
- # [09:46] <@benward> There are two parts.
- # [09:47] <@benward> One is inconsistant date formats, which is a problem when moving between the USA and European date formats all the time.
- # [09:47] <zerq> yes that of coarse :|
- # [09:47] <@benward> Year-Month-Day is unambiguous and sites that demand age verification could be clearer if they used that.
- # [09:48] <zerq> wait!
- # [09:48] <@benward> Of course, the other version is to switch the month into named form, rather than numeral
- # [09:48] <zerq> ah... i mean the microformat would expose what ratings the game would have... so its more an issue of what ratings are used in various regions..
- # [09:49] <singpolyma> zerq: That's not going to be legally binding
- # [09:49] <singpolyma> The point of entering a birth date is that the user has stated they are of a certain age
- # [09:49] <singpolyma> For legal reasons
- # [09:49] <zerq> well just how legaly binding is it if a 10 year old claims he is 90?
- # [09:49] <zerq> he cant sign an agrement....
- # [09:49] <singpolyma> Quite. The company is not liable because he lied
- # [09:50] <singpolyma> His parents would likely be liable
- # [09:50] <@benward> In terms of microformats, there are then two parts.
- # [09:50] <zerq> so basicaly people dont care what actualy works...
- # [09:50] <zerq> only what the lawyers say
- # [09:50] <singpolyma> Yes
- # [09:50] <@benward> Yep
- # [09:50] <zerq> lawyers suck balls
- # [09:51] <@benward> 1. If the site has taken an OpenID/URL-based login already, then there could be an hCard read at the other end with a published birth month/year.
- # [09:51] <singpolyma> Otherwise typing my name in a box and hitting "I agree" would not be a legally binding signature :P
- # [09:51] <zerq> well cant the browser check age validation the first time a agre rated site is visited?
- # [09:51] <@benward> 2. The site could use a stanard set of classnames for the day/month/year form fields, and browsers existing auto-complete funtionality could be enhanced to respond to them
- # [09:52] <@benward> In microformats as they stand, we don't have granular classnames for dates, though.
- # [09:52] <zerq> oh well at least i hope the wolfensite.com sites creator gets fried and rehired and fired again!
- # [09:52] <zerq> the site accepted the date "82 80 1982"!!!
- # [09:52] <zerq> i ment to write 08
- # [09:53] <zerq> age gates are to annoying
- # [09:53] <singpolyma> benward: I think HTML5 has some new date input field, although support for that is obviously a ways out
- # [09:53] <@benward> Yes, that's true
- # [09:53] <@benward> <input type=date>
- # [09:53] <zerq> cant we just strangle all the lawyers and drown any babies that look even remotely like they will grow up to be laywers
- # [09:53] <@benward> That's outside the scope of microformats.
- # [09:53] * Quits: KevBurnsJr (n=kevburns@24.4.38.132)
- # [09:53] <zerq> ya i know..
- # [09:53] <zerq> :(
- # [09:53] <singpolyma> zerq: We can only do that once we have a legal system simple enough for the people to understand
- # [09:54] <@benward> singpolyma The problem with <input type=date> is taht the fallback is to a standard text field.
- # [09:54] <singpolyma> benward: That's a perfectly sane fallback. Most webby languages have a nice date parser around
- # [09:54] <@benward> Which is fantastic, in a technical progressive enhancement way. But, I suspect, the user experience of entering a full date in a single field, will cause errors.
- # [09:54] * Joins: besbes (n=besbes@131.130.33.44)
- # [09:54] <@benward> Sites use separate input fields for day/month/year for a reason
- # [09:55] <@benward> Now, when browser support for type=date is large enough, sure, there will be a switch, but it won't be as super-soon as with other aspects of HTML5
- # [09:55] <singpolyma> Hmm, maybe. People are used to writing out full dates. I guess if they went for an XX/YY/ZZ approach there would be trouble
- # [09:56] <zerq> why cant it just ask are you over over 18 or wher ever the country reqires... yes no....
- # [09:56] <zerq> then its a matter of internationalization...
- # [09:56] <singpolyma> zerq: Pretty sure the UI is mandated by lawyers
- # [09:56] <zerq> append the age data to the culture/language data
- # [09:57] <zerq> lawyers again!
- # [09:57] <singpolyma> Most problems of this sort can be traced to lawyers or bankers :)
- # [09:57] <zerq> the beurocrats will kill us all by strangleing us in red tape!
- # [09:58] <singpolyma> zerq: You always have the option of moving somewhere where there are no lawyers (such places exist), but the 1st world has them and that's who makes the online content
- # [09:58] <zerq> dont get me started on bankers.... They steal the value of or currency!
- # [09:59] <zerq> i which i was religious so i could relax in the knowlage that they would end up in hell
- # [10:01] <@benward> Heh. Let's keep focused on the microformats please, zerq :)
