I have a couple of topics today, starting with:

AGE DISCRIMINATION!

Age Discrimination isn't cool, its someone belittling other people because of their age, not letting them partake in certain build projects ETC

Most of the time, its just because people think that people are immature if they are young. But I've seen mature 12 year old's, and immature 15 year old's :/

So if you have a build project, and only allow people that are 15 or 18 (or anything else) why do you do it? is it because of maturity? than you should have a test, not an age filter.

Its also very hurtful, take this Fictional story as a reminder:

"Joe was booting up his laptop to view his PMC account, when he had opened his forum posts, he saw that there was a reply on his introduction. Joe was 11, but rather mature for his age. What the reply was read: YOU BABY! YOU STILL SO YOUNG YOU STILL RELY ON YOU MAMMA TO WIPE YOU BEHIND! YOU TOO YOUNG TO BE ON PMC, GO GET A DIAPER CHANGE N00B!!!!!!! Joe was very sad, he replied to it and said: Dude, get a life"

So please remember that Age Discrimination is hurtful!

EXPERIENCE POINTS MIS-USING!

Experience Points (shortened to XP) are something that you get from your posts, not from Subscriptions/Forum Posts ETC. Some people think that if you reach a certain level (which you get from XP) you can do whatever you want, or that you become a moderator. COMPLETELY UTTERLY WRONG!!! - I couldn't think of a better way to express myself.

People, like Disco_, F3rullo14, and others, are very high levels, but not moderators, and they don't act how they want. They got their levels from following the rules, and posting high-quality stuff.

Thats all for now! please Diamond if you like, Favorite if you love, Subscribe if you want more!

I'm 12 but.... before people know my age, they've always assumed I'm older - the guesses have been between 14 and 30, no joke. It's not rare for a 20 year old to harass and annoy people in childish ways, or for a 10 year old to help everyone out and show politeness and maturity.

There's a huge difference between aging and acting the part

It is true that the older you get, the more life experiences you get. But I am 12, and I think that I'm moderatly mature (yeah right). Ageism is something that I have experienced before.

Hmm.... I think I now understand why people think I'm strange.

I'm just 12 years old but I'm more mature than half of the people on the whole internet! Exhibit A: Some guy said these exact words to me: wow ur 2 yunng 2 b plng mc bro u gtg bro get of bro u cant evn bildd. And so I said back: Well, at least I went to school. And can I throw a dictionary at you? And at that moment I was banned for "Insulting and bullying a moderator" by that they mean "Some 19 year old bullied you so you said something back and he lied"

That's just sad. I don't play on servers where mods and admins talk trash because the think they're above the rules or some mumbo jumbo. If it doesn't stop, the multiplayer experince(I'm not the best with grammar) will be shifting on a fence and walking around surrounded by iron bars and idiots. Or something worse.

I completely agree with you Pikamoar2121!

I am 11 years old and I am way more mature than this one guy on a server that I was on. (I will not mention his/her username here).
I was just having a pleasant time building, and this guy comes up and says: "Dude, you're, like, totally doing it wrong, you're acting like an immature 6 year old girl." I am actually a boy.... "I am 16. That's ten years older than you."

I replied this way: "Dude, It doesn't matter how old I am, only that I am more mature than you."
Then he said: "$#@%$!#@$ your %#@$#@ off!"
Immature16yearold was banned for swearing.

Many times I have not been allowed to help on build days and things like that, because of my age. I take an application, fill it out, and then I get this reply. "I'm [not very] sorry, but you weren't what we are looking for. You might consider growing up a bit before you do another application. Just an idea, have a good day!"

Wow...
