Hey guys! I ranted about this before, but it got deleted cuz apparently rants don't count as blogs, but I wanna talk about it anyways. So, ageist Minecraft players. First of all, ageism is like rascism, but with age. IT'S NOT COOL. Not all little kids suck/rage/call hacks every time they lose you know. I've seen kids become YouTubers with tens of thousands of subs and views. 

I've seen people kill other people in SG, and they say "lol 6 yr old get rekt noob". Just because someone lost, dosen't mean they're 6 or a noob. My friend as a brother who's like 6 or something. I once saw him take down a guy in almost full iron gear and mushroom stew with just medium-level armor and a stone sword in SG. "BUT RADIANT" you say. "THAT WAS JUST ONE TIME" Nah, I've seen a lot of other kids win SG/Bridges/Walls/Dominate/ well you get my point. Not all kids are bad at Minecraft.

Don't get me wrong. Not all kids can pwn at Minecraft. And there are kids who rage a lot. But those kids are like 8 and below. You can't classify anyone under 13 a total noob. And the kids who rage? Can you blame them? They're little kids, who aren't mature yet. Even YOU were like that at some point. Ageist people really ruin not just Minecraft, but gaming in general for me.

Anyway, yeah. Just wanted to get my point across that being 12 dosen't mean you're a noob, and that being ageist is really just being a jerk. Yes, I blogged about this before, but it got taken down cuz I was pretty mad when I wrote that, and it got taken down. But I'm not mad anymore, so admins, please don't take this one down as well. So hopefully, you'll stop classifing everybody under 13 immature/ a noob. Anyways, I'll talk to you guys later, and I'm out!

Cheers,
Radiant
CreditI credit ageist people. Without them, this blog wouldn't exist.

Agreed entirely, me being under 13 I'm harrasses by agists very commonly,
even though I'm very smart, mature and generally not a noob. Proof: RTI, Colors,

While being mean to someone because of how old they are is completely unacceptable, experience comes with age, and so as a general rule, so does skill and maturity. So it's generally best to deal on a person-to-person basis.

I should also mention that the "can you blame them for raging? They're little kids" bit is silly, and overturns the entire point you're trying to make with this blog.

I'm not good at phrasing things :P. I just wanted to get my point across that you shouldn't be ageist.

No, you got your point across fine, what I'm saying is that you can guess what a person will be like by their age, to some extent. Again, that doesn't excuse being mean, but older folks are more mature than younger ones, as a general rule.

But some kids are more mature than adults, so it can't really be so general rule.

General means most of the time. Some kids are exceptionally mature, and some adults aren't, but that's rare.

But generally speaking, most adults are more mature than kids; that's just a fact.
