Does anyone have a problem with Age?

While I generally dislike kids, I find the ones I run into in Arma (and all the way back to Flashpoint) to be much more mature than most adults in other games I play.

So no... hearing a teenager's voice in Arma doesn't bother me. Just don't ask your mother what a few of the words that occasionally slip out of my mouth mean if you don't understand.

You, sir, act more like a kid than the OP. I suggest you take a look at the group you are talking about, and realize that you are acting just like a child.

I don't think age is really an issue. I'm 14, turning 15 in about a month, but nobody has had any problems with me. I don't know if this is because my mic makes my voice sound more bass than it actually is though. I've made people's mouths drop open by telling them my age.

The community is, on the whole, not really concerned with age, but rather maturity. If you act like a mature person, no one will have a problem. The main reason players dislike kids is that the average kid is, on average, average. This day's children tend to think that the internet makes any behavior acceptable, plus there are too many parents that do a bad job at upbringing. Thankfully, my parents are amazing people who have done a very good job at raising me.

Okay, I'm rambling. Basically, don't act like a score-obsessed idiot who cares for nothing more than being a 1337 pwnz0r.

Other tips:
Don't fly helicopters until you have logged about 10 or so hours in them offline. I've flown for 6 months and I'm still not much better than average. If you hop in a helicopter without any idea of what you're doing, you'll crash on takeoff and most people will get ticked off.

Adjust to what others say. This is probably one of the most important things I can say. I know a certain young person who is a regular on the 7th Cavalry Domination server and acts completely immature in this way. He never listens to advice and insists that his way is the best way. He thinks he's hot sauce at flying, and he refuses to listen to what anyone else tells him to do. He's probably the most annoying person I've met on ArmA2 next to blatant hackers and teamkillers.

We have some who are under the age limit we normally allow. Every rule has it's exceptions if they prove to be worthwhile. We've also met many others we're not willing to bother with.
