My buddy and I are trying to find a decent domain registrar for our minecraft server. We came across GoDaddy, bought our domain and about 12 hours later received an email telling us that they suspended our account for "security" purposes until we present government identification. Here's the thing: NEITHER OF US HAVE ANY. We're BOTH UNDER THE AGE OF 18! He is 16 and I an 14. We tried doing the same thing with 1&1, got the same email. We're not spending any money until we know this isn't gonna happen on every singly flipping site we go to. It's wasting our money which hopefully will be refunded. But still, we need to find one that doesn't **** us over. Any suggestions? Does anyone know of any that don't do this?
Are there any domain registrars that do not require government identification?

There are serious legal issues with registering domains. Registrars do NOT just suspend registrations. Since you are BOTH underage to buy a domain you must have committed fraud to make a payment. They are NOT stupid. And as that is the case there will be NO refund. In fact you will be VERY lucky if the police do not come banging on your door.
