I was just kicked for being too young

I was playing the Vault of Glass with some people, and I realized they were Iron Banner 30s. I didn't mention it, but then we got to the gatekeepers. 3 People died every time on the first portal outside. After a few times, I asked them how that was possible, and one instantly started hating on me. He called me a squeaker because I am 13 and haven't hit puberty. We were doing perfect in the raid and we were all laughing at some point. I told him to shut up and he told me,"Sorry, I can't play with someone as young and bad as you." And he booted me. I mean WTF?? We went through it as a team and he ended it there. Why is the community so rude? Edit 1: We were playing NORMAL with five 30s and one 29, the 29 with me and another 30 in the portal. Edit 2: Okay, I deleted "fake" because that isn't true, you are correct. They just got 30 a different way than me and have less experience with the raid. Edit 3: These responses are overwhelming! Was gonna reply and give my thoughts to all of them, but there is no way I can now!

  • I have lots of nieces and nephews about your age I play games with. They can be a lot of fun too! A few of pieces of advice for you if you don't want hostility while you're playing. 1.) Don't talk too much. It is a tendency of younger people to be egocentric and think what they have to say is extremely important. Most of the time it is not. 2.) Try to keep your conversation focused on the task at hand. My biggest peeve with playing with kids in Destiny is when they start talking about school or their character's armor or their favorite weapon or their.... (you get the picture). It's impossible to concentrate and communicate with your teammates when someone is spewing stupid. 3.) Finally, have enough time to play. At least 3 times in the middle of a raid I've heard "time for dinner". If this describes you, you're leaving your team high and dry. Most people won't have a problem playing with a kid, as long as your a cool kid. Shoot, a bunch of the community have kids of their own. The guys sound like a-holes, don't let it get under your skin.
