Minetest comes with no mods installed by default (except those part of Minetest Game). You still have to browse the forums the download and install them.

I think restriction to play any game based on age is very ageistic, which is the same as racism. The only recommendation is to not play multiplayer MT if you have weak psychic setup, ie you can't look at blood for example.

It is not only the age, it is also a question of brain, education and culture.

As a Parent I always check a game first myself, may be with my daughter sitting beside, to judge the game myself depending on our education in knowledge, culture and local also religions behaviors!
Also I check her reaction on the game about
* complexly
* reality
* safety (register data, control data via browser, chat moderation, ...)
* age kind game-play and possibilities
Example:
* monsters are not real - it took long time to take them in as a fun
* killing animals (so also monsters), allowed from me/us as WE human eat chicken, cow and pick also - and they have to be killed - I talk with her long time where the food on our plate is coming, and as we have own fish and chicken killed for restaurant, she know !
* complex about production chains is good to understand (milk comes from supermarket haha, got it ?) I find it good education and knowledge that wheat (crop) need to be prepared (hoe), have water, time to grow (sunlight or else) not violated, harvested, prepared cooked to bread to eat ... so she understand the worth of something needed time and work to invest !

You misunderstand I think,
as horses are possible in game, and could be killed - would be the question if I allow her/them to join such server ... yes, as they should learn to kill and eat everything - as the future will be hard.
It is not about the gamer/players are on the server, it is about what options the server ... or a game itself offers - to decide as a parent.
So I guess for a server country/language/region with major Moslem, the pig killing might be better off. That could be a problem of this parents to allow there kids to join. So even as a server offer should think about how will join mainly ... haha
The contacts gamer I see then beside, and the command "/revoke privs TillCoyote shout" solves also that problem then.
As that is the other big point with kids, how good that server is watched against ... bad people.

I'm not saying we should give 5-year olds the latest splatter party but this whole “child protection” idea is hysterical often enough.
Wuzzy wrote:Heck, even rubenwardy from the Minetest project proposed that for 5.0.0 certain mods and games be outright banned from the upcoming Content DB so Minetest gets a low PEGI rating … You can't make this shit up!

Do you know many 2 year olds who are comfortable with hardcore pornography, extreme horror and violence?
