I want everybody to play Destiny, I really do. But it is a fact that children are immature and because of this, they often ruin the game for other players. It's not because they are bad people, I'm not saying that. It's because they are emotional, hot-headed, they think they know more than they do. This often causes a lot of conflict with other players who just want to have fun. The irrationality and immaturity of the children will clash with the seasoned gaming veteran.
Now, I'm not saying kids should be banned from Destiny, I want them to enjoy it to. What I'm saying is that bungie takes measures to encourage the parents of children to supervise them and to teach them proper manners in online gaming. How does bungie do this you may ask? The kinect and playstation 4 camera are more than capable of reading faces and matching them up with public databases if the proper software is written for both of them. The cameras scan the children and match them up with a public record. If the child is found to be under the age of 17, an additional monthly fee of $10 will be required to allow them to play. If the fee is not paid, then they cannot play.This requires that the parents invest in the child, so the parents will not want their kids to screw it up, or else they risk being banned. Which would be a waste of money.
Now why 17 you may ask? Well, 17 is the biological age of maturity. It is at this time that the process of puberty begins to end. Hormones are released into your body that allow for more rational thinking. Before this happens, it is literally impossible to be mature. Sure, some kids may act mature, but that's because they've been supervised by their parents. Some may even believe that they are mature, even going so far as to say [quote]I'm 13/14/etc and I don't swear or do any of those things.[/quote] but that's because the way they view reality is skewed.
Sure, some adults may act immature, but this is because they have to deal with immature kids. Science has shown that high pitched noises activate certain instincts in adults. It has to do with protecting the young. When babies cry, adults automatically want to do something to get the baby to stop crying. This is the instinct high pitched noises appeal to. It makes adults irrational and emotional. This is not something that contributes to a friendly gaming environment. So if you encounter a grown person who appears to be acting immature, it's probably because they just encountered a kid.

The brain on average doesn't finish growing until 30. I think it should be for 29 and under.

Yeah I'm definitely getting involved in this one. Is there a petition yet?

I know people who are 17 or younger that are more mature and have more intelligence than this post, and, most of all your other posts. Maybe you should realise that your stereotyping people. Bungie want to make money but they want a fan base too to sell their other products. Charging people extra, who are their main target audience, would be absurd.

How is this idiot troll post back on page 1?? wtf?
-
No. Age is just a number. Just because you [b]x[/b] years old, doesn't mean you maturity is above a certain standard.
-
Didn't even read anything but the title before posting. If the op stays true to it's title then I'm in. In fact I think their parents should have to pay me for babysitting instead. Shitty parents have been getting away with this for far too long...
-
I fully support this.
-
So wait, anyone on the planet earth under the age of 17 is an annoying prick that everyone hates? I don't think so.
-
I'm legitimately impressed that these people can see this again and again and not instantly think 'troll' after the 100th similar post...
-
Well since there is no proximity chat or anything in destiny you should be fine
-
Hey idiot it's rated T for teen which means 13 and up
-
I love your troll posts. They are hilarious

-
I'm fine as long as they are mature.
-

Gr8 b8 m8 makes me want to masturb8 i r8 8/8

... So the ones over 17 that act immature gets away without paying your fee and the 15 yr old that is more mature than most is basically screwed out of $10 a month .. well the parents or how ever the arrangement is made... This is illogical ... and your scientific proof had flaws from the start since it did not take the effects of hormone injected into the red meats and how every individual breaks it down differently. So I am sorry sir your program is flawed
-
Yes, this is a truthful post. After all age is a maturity stat, and increases by years on this earth [spoiler]dont ya know?[/spoiler]
-
All of your posts are gold.
-
It's the 5 year olds that need to go
-
Personally, I can handle kids because I can mute them and/or leave. It's the immature adults I can't stand, rather they are assholes , have a childish mentality, or grew up and got anything they wanted by throwing a tamptrum. By that stage in their life there is no hope for them. At least with children there's a chance they mature and become decent people.

Guys, this is satire. No need to get mad.
-
Luv to burst ur bubble guy this game is t for teen
-
The game is rated teen, your argument is invalid. Besides, there's plenty of mature people in the 13-16 year old range, and there loads of immature people 17+. It really wouldn't change anything imo.

This games rated T
