This is a guide for you to follow if you've experiencing one or more of the following; kicked from Fireteams, being muted, etc. If you are under the age of 14 there is a pretty good chance that some people don't want to play with you. The reasons why could be many things, but this list will tell you the best way to avoid being kicked. 1. This is your Golden Rule. If you remember nothing else, remember this. [b]DON'T SCREAM. UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. NOTHING AGGRAVATES PEOPLE MORE THAN KIDS WITH HIGH PITCHED VOICES SCREAMING. TALK QUIETLY.[/b] Again, I can't stress how important this is. Be quiet. 2. [b]DON'T INVITE YOUR FRIENDS TO THE PARTY UNLESS YOU PLAN ON BRINGING THEM INTO THE GAME WITH YOU. OLDER PLAYERS DO NOT WANT TO LISTEN TO YOU TALK ABOUT SCHOOL, OTHER VIDEO GAMES, OR ANYTHING EXCEPT THE GAME YOU ARE PLAYING.[/b] 3. [b]DON'T JOIN IN ON CONVERSATIONS YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT. WAIT UNTIL THE TOPIC CHANGES BEFORE EVEN SPEAKING.[/b] 4. [b]IF SOMEONE HAS TO TAKE A QUICK BREAK FOR SOME REASON, SUCH AS TENDING TO THEIR OWN KIDS, GREETING THEIR SPOUSE, USE THE RESTROOM, OR EVEN A SMOKE BREAK, DO [u]NOT[/u] COMPLAIN. NO ONE COMPLAINS WHEN YOU TALK TO YOUR PARENTS, SO DON'T COMPLAIN WHEN OTHERS DO IT.[/b] 5. [b]STAY FOCUSED ON THE GAME! DO NOT SCREW AROUND. IF YOU'RE PLAYING A RAID ESPECIALLY PAY CLOSE ATTENTION. IF EVERYONE WIPES, DO NOT TRY TO SOLO THE REST UNLESS THEY WANT YOU TO BECAUSE THERE IS NO REASON TO WASTE EVERYONE'S TIME.[/b] These 5 rules can and will help you stay in the game. If you follow all of these rules and still get kicked, then it's not your fault. That's on the other people for being intolerable. Just because this is directed towards younger players doesn't mean you older players are exempt from them. These rules are common courtesy. If anyone has any other guide lines they would like to add, leave them in the replies, and I may add it to this list here- [spoiler][/spoiler]
