The Hangout: EVERYONE IS HATED BY IVOLT

Listen to Warhammer Podcast.

Realize that all of them are 3 hours or more long. All 35 episodes.

OH SHI-

Well, get used to it. Some Parents these days have no discipline towards their children by telling them what they can and can`t do (that must be pretty rich coming from a 14 year old)

Again with the generalisations.

I wasn't implying a ten year old playing a game was bad, I was playing games when I was 10 too, I was just shocked at how young he was compared to me.

Depending on the game that he was playing, I see no problem with a 10 year old being on an online game.

Provided that the parent is monitoring what they are saying/doing, you have to give kids a little bit of freedom when it comes to that kind of stuff, and let them find out what is appropriate/inappropriate. It's not "can vs cannot," it's "okay, but I'm going to be paying attention to what you're saying/playing, and if I don't like what I am hearing/seeing, then that shit is going to stop."

The worst thing that you can do is outright forbid your kids from doing anything. You have to allow them certain freedoms that are appropriate for their age range, and take into account just how connected everything in the world is now, and take into account that the kids growing up these days have access to millions of things that even I didn't have access to when I was a kid. And I'm only 23.

When I was 10 all I played were games like Driver and GTA.

I suppose I'd be just like the rest if I were this age now, hammering Call of Duty online...

I meant the online, I was a gamer since I was 6 or 7.

With the internet, they're going to see porn as soon as they step onto it. It's inevitable.

All I can suggest is giving them a list of free/safe porn websites to use, don't want them getting any viruses now do we?

Now that I look at it that way, it kinda makes sense. I guess I kinda implied he was playing cod...Derp.

I've been a gamer since I was 3.

Seriously. My brother and I got an NES for Christmas in 1991. Started playing it right away. First game I ever played was Legend of Zelda.

Hence the "monitoring" aspect.

If my son was online playing LittleBigPlanet or something, I probably wouldn't say anything about it. I'd just want to be in the room so I can hear what he is saying, and what is being said to him.

I feel like this with my mam when she plays on XBL or PSN...

I don't even like her having a YouTube channel because I know how many trolls are on that shit.

My granny found a used NES and got it to me at like christmas when I was 3. I only REALLY started playing it when I was 5. Before that I was to hyperactive. School really wears you out

That reminds me of my aunt playing Wii boxing. I`m going to quote her. "GET OVER HERE YOU MOTHERFUCKER I`M GONNA KILL YOU C`MERE GOD DAMMIT I SWEAR TO GOD I`LL KILL YOU!!!"
That was within the first 30 seconds of it.
