Knowing someone's address, what school they go to, email, passwords, etc, is your personal information and should be kept secret. False. If age on the internet wasn't a sensitive topic then there wouldn't be legislation controlling it. I'd expand further but that doesn't seem necessary; the point is that posting publicly is a needless revelation of personal information and investigating a user's age isn't something that you or anyone else who isn't staff should be doing anyway.
