Game is rated teen. Keep kids off it. The internet is not your babysitter, and you probably have bad parents.

  • Teen rating is 13+ which means he is old enough to play the game.

    That's game content. Online experience is not rated, and being a parent myself, I would never allow a 13 year old to play online. It's bad parents allowing the internet to babysit their shitty kids, plain and simple. Good parents would at least teach them proper etiquette. 90% of players under 15 don't have any. Expecting adults to want to deal with them is an act of idiocy.

    Lol I've been whooping old asses in games since I was 5, in my opinion if a young one can prove they are better, they belong. I'm 24 btw. If they aren't yipping and screaming more power to them.

  • Thanks. With all the stupid shit I did I'm surprised I made it past 18. I've played with quite a few who can. One kid even booted his friend because he wouldn't shut up and the kid apologized for him. Don't generalize, that's like me saying "find a woman that can do roofing and I'll eat my hat" it happens, and you sound like a tool. Maybe if people actually helped these kids they wouldn't have to try boasting their skills hoping it keeps them in groups.

  • Women can't roof. And no, I'm not a babysitter.

  • Women can roof. Clearly you are not a babysitter, I'm hoping you aren't even a parent. Your ignorance doesn't need to spread.

    Actually I am. Not only is my kid highly intelligent, but has a strong moral upbringing, and won't touch online gaming until she's mature enough to do so. Happy to see your augment is so pathetic you have to resort to personal attacks. Typical of your age group. Gonna guess you vote Democrat still too.lol

  • Incorrect strong Republican. I also hunt, and am also in the top .05% of the world's highest intelligence pool. I figured I'd get an actual informed response from you if I went for the personal angle. Let me ask you this, if your daughter wanted to play would you let her? In not talking patrol, I'm talking about playing the actual game.

    Destiny, no. Online is no place for a child. If you were brought up the way you appear to be, given your intelligence, you should know that. There are thousands of games my child can pay without being exposed to the toxicity of the internet,where pedophiles are just the tip of the iceberg. Nowadays, you have the children of generation X, with all their poor upbringing, and entitlement, being thrust into the internet as a tool used by aforementioned piss poor patents, as a babysitter. All because their patents are " to busy" or too -blam!-ed up to actually do things with their children. This brings sqeakers; unraised brats who are used to getting whatever they want if they whine enough,because that's what their shitty patents have taught them. I don't care to teach other people's kids how to be. Not only is it not my responsibility, but I find it annoying. Forgive the spelling, I don't care to correct the autocorrect. You get the message.

  • I personally believe personally it's not about the game, it's about the maturity. In my opinion even with the voices high, if mature they should be accepted. It goes both ways, we are the older group, we should be mature enough to give them our reasoning behind kicking them if we are without being rude about it. Respect even if removing them would still be better than disrespecting them for something they cannot help. I personally do not kick younger players as I know there are much worse people for them to play with than I. I teach any and all how to do things in this game, all week every week I run raids with even older people who have no idea what is going on. Perhaps this isn't your way, which is your choice. Don't make them suffer more ridicule then necessary though we all know they probably get it every where else. I was 13ish by the time a real system with online capabilities happened (the dream cast can die in a hole). So I'd been gaming for a while before I got online and knew the crowds were older. So I stayed quiet and talked when needed. Not all young kids scream and rant 24/7 even now days. I'm rambling, per usual for me. So I'll sum it up as this, it is your choice to not play with them. To generalize a whole age group though? That's ignorance at its finest, as your daughter is still a part of it whether she is smart enough to stay away or not. Good luck to you, and her. May her seasons of hunting be full of game and memories and may you enjoy her and your life to its fullest.

  • I'm not saying curse the age group as a whole, by any means, I'm just saying that the majority are self entitled brats who moan until they get their way, or just banter on mic like it's a twitter feed. OP is one of those such brats. The only way the mature kids are going to change that perspective is by encouraging their peer group, not by expecting me to put up with it. They need to teach their friends to be more like them, and then you'll see more of the older crowd accept them. Asking them to put up with it is an act of futility.

  • Unfortunately trying to get them to emulate the more mature kids may also be an act of futility. It'd be like getting my dad to be more like me financially. He "knows better" in his mind. It seems we may have to just hope that when they do mature... It's not into an annoying adult. Lol. On that note though I have to go stop my 3 yr old from trying to eat her weight in fruit snacks.
