PlayStation has revealed that players will need to verify their age later this year to continue using communication features.

    Clarification for those of you who are also using an adblocker and get denied access to the site, this seems to be in the UK only and is yet another result of their age verification tear they’ve been on.

      not what the article says, the article specifically says:

      The age-verification process will be implemented globally,

      I’m using an adblocker and get in just fine, may be random or it may be the js blockers I’ve implemented. Here’s my list of lists in case:

      • AdAway Default Blocklist
      • Peter Lowe’s Blocklist
      • OISD Blocklist Big
      • uBlock₀ filters – Badware risks
      • HaGeZi’s Ultimate Blocklist
      • AdGuard DNS filter
      • Phishing URL Blocklist (PhishTank and OpenPhish)
      • Perflyst and Dandelion Sprout’s Smart-TV Blocklist
      • Phishing Army
      • HaGeZi’s Windows/Office Tracker Blocklist
      • Malicious URL Blocklist (URLHaus)
      • EasyList Cookie Blocker
      • No Google (disabled for now)

      Note for any NordVPN users, their URIs are blocked by HaGeZi. Same list temporarily had Tidal’s URIs blocked as well but it seems to have been fixed.

Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you’re submitting before posting to see if it’s already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

We don’t want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.
