I cannot find for the live of me how to remove the black popup box that shows the age rating warning when selecting PLAY.

It isn't the ordinary crystal opening movie, that's been disabled in Tools.

There shouldn't be a black popup box.

Is it age warning?

For me seems like a warning to not to be hardcore ("dont forget your family, your friends, your school, or your work").

I'm not too sure he means that, though.

It pops up for me and sits for a few seconds, but never long enough to actually bother me.

That only pops up on the US version of PlayOnline Viewer. I believe it started to show up a little after WoTG released.

And I don't think it's possible to disable it. Since it's no longer possible to manage account through POL (management is done through a separate website now) you can switch to European software, which is in English and does not show that particular nagging screen.

I've been playing for 6 years using USA POL and I've never seen that rating screen.

I've only ever seen the age rating on 14, don't remember seeing it on 11, even using the SoA disc.

You sure ? That shows up even on the US version of the PS2 client ... lol

I only don't see it when I am using the Japanese client or when I tried the Euro client (before they removed French and German. I installed because I wanted to see the text in those languages before it gone "kaputt").

I get that warning on the laptop I use my Red Mage on but not the laptop I use my Bard on. I play through an Amazon installation on my Red Mage laptop and I play through Steam on my Bard laptop. (Two different laptop.)

Note that "Ver 1.18.15e." on the top of the window at the screenshot. SAME version of POL Viewer I have. I believe that "e" means "English" not "Europe"...

Sorry for not replying sooner!

The screen that pops up only actually happens on my PC that I have the US client on actually, I never put 2 and 2 together on that one.

It could be to do with the shitty graphics card on that computer I suppose, but it seems to hang for about 5 seconds and its just a nuisance more than anything.

ESRB are the ones responsible for age/content ratings (particularly the one posted above) only in the United States and Canada, so it's not surprising some folks don't have that. I have the same warning on my version, but I had partially installed the game from an old Vanadiel Collection disc and finished via digital download of full game package.

When I played, my installation was from US discs. Never once saw that rating myself. Played for a short while on PS2 a long long long time ago (Way way before level cap increase) and never saw it there either. My friend who also played on PC and used the US discs never saw it either.
