Revealing your age is against the rules so you better change your post before you get a warning
why does the sims care if you say your age?
Since this old November 2015 thread was dug up a few weeks ago, it's clearly still relevant.
As a T for Teen-rated game, it follows that the official forum has like stipulations and knowingly allowing those under 14 to participate (by allowing the posting of one's age) can expose the Company to legal ramifications ---if some kid gets into a "more adult than teen" conversation with adults and said kid's parents find out and hold EA responsible.
If no ages are divulged, then they at least have plausible deniability and can shift the question back to the same outraged parents and ask them why their kid is navigating the hazardous waters of the Web unsupervised.
What are the differences between an Avatar and a Profile Picture?
An Avatar is an image that you can use to distinguish yourself to other forum members. The Avatar is displayed by your username on all posts that you make.
A Profile Picture is an image or photo you can upload that will display in your public member profile.
