So my little brother saw an advertisement for Gaia on this stupid site and now he wants so join, I'm trying to prevent him from joining it because it's way to inappropriate for him. I don't know what to do, how do I keep him from joining?

How young is your younger brother?
I joined when I was 11....

Mm.
As long has he has his filter on really high and he doesn't venture into the GD, I think he'll be fine.

But if you still don't want him to join, tell him it's an adult site or something? o_o Or a teen site?
Or talk about how cruel Gaians are or something equally off-putting. xD

If he's 13 or older, there's not really much you can do to keep him away...

Try telling your parents. If they want proof that the site isn't appropriate for him, show them the GD. If that doesn't do it, nothing will.

Just tell him every bad thing in Gaia in extreme details. That might work. twisted

I guess it depends on his
age, but telling him that
Gaia would be extremely
boring to him might work.


It worked for a friend of mine.

Whatever you tell him, don't say he is 'too young'. That will only spark his curiosity.

He's 12, he is too young. I tried telling him it's boring too but he says he still wants to join.

Talk to your parents.

there's an age limit for gaia. you're not supposed to join until 13 years of age. a lot of people that were hacked/banned ran into problems because they were under the recommended age limit. maybe explaining he's not allowed to go on until another year might help.

He'll probably get bored in...a week.

Let's see... few times fishing, do a few puzzles on normal...then he quits and runs off to play PS2. If you have one, that is.
