What a shit of an article. The whole content would fit in 2 sentences (including title) + the website is cancerous as fuck
That’s Kotaku for you.
Without giving Kotaku the clicks, what is the jist of the article?
Account created when Runescape was 8yo, and that age used in registration causing Twitter to ban the account 15 years late as minimum age for it’s users is 13yo. Now ban reverted
The title + now unbanned
if the DoB has been on the account for years (presumably) from creation, kinda odd how this pops up now… checks like that should trigger on creation/change o_O
I almost wonder if a disgruntled fan who’s upset about the recent change of ownership (or just some recent update, knowing MMO fans) reported it to Twitter
My guess would be somebody ran a query against the database for this and they just took action on all of the results.

Runescape knows a thing or two about false bans.
Isn’t the account literally older than 8 years?
