Age restriction videos
« on: April 21, 2015, 05:45:23 am »
So I have never been able to watch any of the Macys Spring Videos and/or the DSW Videos, they ask for age and gender and no matter what I put it never lets me watch them tells me that it is restricted to age/gender LOL what age you have to be to watch a Macy's Video.  The Rimmel London also do the same thing if you say you are older than the 20s.  Seriously Older women do not add mascara their eyalshes? LOL  some of these videos are just ridiculous with their restrictions.  It is funny but frustrating  >:( ::) ???

I have been clicking on them anyway hoping to get thru.  I should be able to get Macy's (my hometown).  Sometimes they clear and play/pay.  It could  be a number of days between thing.

I agree with you, and some times it makes me feel like the rest of us over a certain age just don't count anymore.  Maybe it's because we've been around a lot longer and we aren't so "swayed" by certain advertising like the younger crowd is.  They'll suck up to anything, LOL, and that's exactly what advertisers want.

Yeah, it does get frustrating sometimes. I usually get mad and just give up if I can't get through. If they don't want me to watch, then I don't want to see it lol :) I just do something else to get my pennies and I don't take a second look at whatever they were trying to sell when I see it in the store. It's childish, but makes me feel better lol.

I have a lot of videos on my page but I am unable to watch the majority because of the age / gender restrictions. Obviously, the advertiser is appealing to a specific population but it should be taken into consideration that most viewers have children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews and others.

Since these videos remain on my page, I am hoping that one day they might be available for me. I am curious to see what is being offered.

Try clearing your cookies and then resubmit your info. I think something happens where if you don't qualify for one, it blocks you from them all even though you may be eligible.

I'm not in my 20s and able to watch the Rimmel London video

Like the surveys, I am sure that the sponsors are looking for certain demographics but to those of us who  do not
fit,it is a little annoying.

I don't even try them anymore as I know I will not be allowed to watch them being way too old.

These age restrictions on all these Videos do not really make sense. I was trying them last night, then i just X them off my page.

Thats the first time I heard of an age restriction on videos. The videos must be rated triple XXX.
