I note with mild interest that the prize for the latest competition is a $1,000 'tattoo voucher': https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/general-news/national-tattoo-day/

 

In B4 some random twelve-year old wins, followed by their parents going entirely ape-:etc_swear: when they use said voucher.

Different laws in different countries though, UK does not allow anyone under 18 to get a tattoo.

France and Germany may be a little more lax but I suppose they couldn't put a limit on for all.

I could picture my mother's face if I'd ever turned up with one, and I was in the RN!!! :D :D :D

To be perfectly honest to participate you already need to have tattoos. So in that case if a kid wins WG should just call the national Child Protection agency where the "winner" lives.

Or is it normal for kids to have tattoos where you live?

 

Spoiler

How to Enter

The rules are simple! Just upload photo of your tattoo here, or post it on any social media, using the hashtag #Inked4WoWS, while mentioning your player name and tagging World of Warships.

It does say you have to send a picture of your tattoo in as part of the entry, though, which should preclude most 12 year olds.

You have to tick a box that you are 18 or older.

I believe everyone here gets something like this before they even leave the maternity ward...

Needless to say, I didn't follow any of the links, or do much due diligence...

Repeat after me, corporate branding is not a tattoo, corporate branding is not a tattoo.

Wait for those 12 year olds showing of their prison and gang tattoos.

Or for me getting a life ban if I send a picture of one of my tattoos situated on a very private part of my body.

A 1k$ voucher for a tatoo? In a game, that is supposed to be played by kids 7+? Where people get banned in the ingame chat and the forums for using mild swear words because kids and their snowflake parents might feel offended?

Riiiiight.

 

What could possibly go wrong? :Smile_trollface:

Does a blood group tattoo in the left armpit count? Asking for a friend. :Smile_trollface:
