The BrickLink website, which now has apparently been subsumed by LEGO, requires your birth year to enter – you can’t enter at all if you input a year.

I don’t know you, but I refuse to give this kind of information. So bye bye BrickLink!

I contacted their customer service and told them that I’ll simply avoid the BrickLink website if it requires my birth year. Their loss.

If you also disagree with this I encourage you to get in touch with them as well.

    Nothing forces you to be honest though

    Edit: as @TabbsTheBat@pawb.social said here, I think we can all be older than Yoda, born in 1111

    Edit 2: 1111 is invalid but 1911 works. Also, it’s horrible on mobile.

      I wouldn’t mind being honest. It’s the fact that it’s requested, not just asked as discretionary. I’m not going to browse for weapons or similar in their website.
