then why aren't people under the age of 13 allowed to be members?
Internet rule. You HAVE to be over 13 to join anything online without parental permission. I'll look up the exact ruling.

important to maintain a family-friendly level for more than just ages 13 and up.
Why? You have to be 13 or up to even post here.

You can read things here without registering.
Not to mention that a
Star Wars site
doesn't have much of a reason to discuss alcohol, unless you're discussing Obi-Wan getting a drink in AOTC.
Edit:
Note: I'm not saying that I'm against all discussion of alcohol, because I'm not. I understand that there are many instances where casual discussion of alcohol doesn't hurt anything. I'm just playing devil's advocate.

So? Why cater to someone who's here illegally?

"Man, I got so wasted last night, I can't remember a thing!"
Fine -- you weren't posting while drunk, which is against the TOS. If, however, you are talking about the FanForce event you were at last night (and getting drunk at) you should be BANNED.
"Getting drunk is great! Everyone should do it!"
Fine.
"I enjoy an occasional Bud Light."
Fine.
"I'm sitting here sipping on a nice refreshing Fosters."
Not fine -- against the TOS to post while drinking/drunk.
"Post your funny drunk stories here!"
Fine.
"UserX is passed out on my couch."
Fine.
"What's your favorite mixed drink?"
Fine.
"OGM Im so durkn rite now!1 LolOLOL"
Not fine -- against the TOS.

well, technically that's not true. all you need is a credit card number or social security number. or, hell, even a signed consent from a parent.
but that's not the issue.
EDIT: i think

gets the picture i'm painting.

I think its ridiculous to assume just because it's a Star Wars site you're expected to not talk about day-to-day things.
you forget that not all forums at this Star Wars site are dedicated to Star Wars.
Exactly my sentiment.

"

"
I've only read a few of the books, so I'm not all that familiar with the EU. Do they have drunken story time in the EU?
And what happens in a fan fic holds no weight in any sort of arguement, as a fan fic is written by a fan.
Again, I don't have a problem with the majority of the discussion of alcohol. However, there need to be some limits, and those limits are what I think the AC wanted you to discuss. There definately is a difference between, "I like a nice Miller Lite every now and then", and "I was so wasted I don't what I did, you should get wasted if you haven't before, it's a lot of fun."
Rather than simply grouping all alcoholic discussion together, break it apart, and give your thoughts on what type of alcoholic discussion should be allowed, and what shouldn't be.
"

"
No, I didn't forget that. What I was saying is that Star Wars probably should be a good basis on what types of things are allowed. As I stated above, it depends on the context that the alcoholic discussion is used in.

You forget that fan fic is also allowed on this site, so why aren't you cracking down on fanfics with drinking in them?
Furthermore, characters in EU do not only drink, but several times they have gotten drunk.
And it's family friendly right? Since Star Wars can't be anything but?
