Why would that be relevant?
Would you please stop fucking nitpicking everything I say?
That wasn't knitpicking. It was a legitimate question, because I don't see why people's opinion of spiraldoor should affect his opinion of them. So stop ranting.

If someone is banned from DeviantArt they should at least be posted their artworks. What's with this age restriction anyway? Users should be punished for their actions, not their age.
As I said, it's against US law for DA to let under 13s use the site. Think about it guys, it's like letting kids into a William Hill shop or selling 15-cert movies to under 15s, that can result in major fines.
Currently deviantART's compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (effective April 21st 2000) is limited to prohibiting any child under the age of 13 from opening, maintaining, or otherwise using a deviantART account. This restriction stands even when parental permission is granted
As we collect certain pieces of identifiable information and since a deviantART account allows a user to publicly display various types of personal and identifiable information (such as name, location and email information) we cannot allow children under the age of 13 to utilize an account at this point in time.
All accounts found to be used or maintained by a child under the age of 13 will be closed automatically and without notice when it is brought to the attention of the deviantART administration. Accounts closed in this fashion will be preserved until their user reaches the minimum required age of thirteen years old.
Questions concerning this minimum age policy may be directed to the Help Desk.
tl;dr they want to protect kids' online privacy and it's a measure to stop paedos from spotting them.

That would be nice...

Thanks :/ It was kinda mean, and my mom will go ballistic if she finds out I've been swearing like that, but tbh I've wanted to say it for a long time.
