How many players in this game are kids between the ages of 10-18? (solution given)

[:1]I am pretty well convinced the % is roughly 85% why you ask well its quite simple due to a number of things I have noticedThewonderfulamount of profanity that these kids use when they figure out that the filter can be turned off (i turned it off so I could actually say things without seeing the censor) (im betting 95% who go around acting this way are f2p. The 2nd thing that I have noticed is a lot of kids saying "I have to poop" or *fart* and then they start spamming (im betting everyone here who says that is f2p)Finally after all that I have seen time and time and time and time again people who for some very odd reason think its ok that your level 5 to go and join a lv 32 whos trying to do a lv 30 quest...see picture below (also I am convinced these people are f2p as they cant understand simple concepts of dont join a lv 30+ mission)picture a) http://load.hostphotofree.com/88950d0e8e5ff2a38a21bc18eff2050c/Spartan%202011-09-01%2014-19-10-92.jpg
|||wall of text solution....heres the solution I propose :1)restrict lower levels from taking part in higher level quests that way you wont see lv 5's or 15's joining a lv 30+ quest2) auto setup the quests so that if your doing quest A and someone else is doing quest A to automatically join and do the quest together that would cut down on the time wasted sitting here doing nothing3) put a chat spam filter on the chat for f2p players but keep it the same way as premium players4) Put some sort of level cap to help encourage players to buy premium instead of staying f2p and not helping support the communitycall me crazy but if we do any of those 3 options it will help cut down on all the nonsense that I have been seeing since I joined..|||I'm 23 and I know most of the beta testers are over 20.
|||except bubbles, he just 14|||Most does not mean all. We know that Bubbles is one of them.

When you read that did you tell yourself "Eh, who needs punctuations? Not me."

If anything like level limiting is going to occur for coop quests it should be optional, i do on occasion like to take along a lower friend into a higher level quest for XP boost, because i can usually do most quests alone anyway, it doesn't matter that they are low level, then can still contribute resources(to me) and kill guardians / collect treasures.

I'm a free player and i'm 31,and i don't spam chat with profanity or any kind of any other nonsense, please don't target free players at being a source of problem users, premium users are just as likely to act like jerks due to a sense of entitlement(ie. i payed for the game, i'll do / say what i like).

We can guess at numbers all we like, but really it's only ever going to be speculation at best, and speculating about the players isn't really going to prove or solve anything.

That said, i think you're probably right.

P.S. Free players get things bad enough as it is, please don't suggest ruining or nerfing free players further just because a handful of idiots are spoiling the enjoyment for you, you'll find people like that in pretty much *every game*, even in games without a free-mode.

Heh, I turned 20 in August so, guess I'm borderline then :P

With regards to the topic at hand, I can't say I have noticed the problem yet myself but if I were to take a guess, I don't think reducing the free to play elements would really help.

See the Modern Warfare community for reference: tons of brats screaming, crying and shouting both by means of text and through VOIP, where just about the only adjective they know is <a removed list of derogatory remarks and bad words>

Quite frankly, I think we're stuck with them, and they will find ways to circumnavigate any censorship that wouldn't impede on our own free speech.

I don't really mind though; as I said, I haven't encountered any trash-talk despite gross (ab)use of certain Egyptian units in PvP. Maybe I just haven't played enough.

CosyGOODkNIGHT edit: Do not post derogatory words on these boards.

|||On this board yes.|||I agree with you Wolf. I have yet to bother with a co-op as I tend to ignore the chan window. I am hoping to convince a few friends to play so I don't have to wade through the foolishness to find people to play with.|||Well fortunately at 19 I am just out of the age bracket....makes me feel so much better not to be lumped in with them.|||My brothers both play. One is 15 and the other is almost 13.|||How many players in this game have a mental age between 10-18. Would have been a better question.

not every idiot is between 10-18.

and i dont even look to general chat anymore, too much spam for a normal talk...

|||It would be nice to have an easier way to chat to other people without others spamming and making conversation next toimpossible.
