Hello fine ladies and gents of the interwebs, my name is Leon and this is me, ranting about prejudiced feelings and actions on younger people on the internet.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Everywhere I go on the internet there are constant, references to people being of a younger age, and there for as a result being a worser person, then say you, the older age group. I believe that the origin of this misjudgment are younger people, who are very immature. When you are older and on the internet, and you encounter someone who is younger than you. You automatically assume they have had the same life experiences as you, and were exactly the same as you at that age. But the fact of the matter is that that is simply not true. Some 13 year old children now a days are fully capable of playing games with you, or helping you build your project. Or joining you in your raid, or being a moderator on your server. An example of this is when I was a server adnimistrator, I was given the very pain-staking job of promoting and demoting people. I saw a moderator application on the server forums one day, and although the person had no past experience the application was very well written and they seemed to be capable for the job. It turns out, that 2 months later and a very successful carreer as a moderator, encouraged by my kindness and welcoming approach towards him , the person in question decided to go on skype with me, whereI found out they were 12 years old. Turns out, the reason that they had never been given any experience is because of his age. This is just a very brief example of why not all 13 year olds are terrible people.

Just remember, that you were 13 years old once (unless your younger, in which case you will be) and that they aren't all that bad.

I am 13, nearly 14, but all the same, I'm very mature, even if I do say so myself. I was mistaken as an adult by my friend Kevin when we first met, he told me I was "professional" and "polite" when I asked for his moderation help. Surely it's obvious that with age can come wisdom, but sadly that's not always true. I wouldn't say i'm exactly wise yet, but I'm book smart, I know my place, and I'm quite clean (maybe a bit of a stick in the mud at times). For me, maturity has nothing to do with skill, how fast you type, build, or figure out a puzzle... no that's all from practice and intelligence, maturity on the other hand, for me, is how you see the world, and how you treat it.

Its true, people my age (13) make fun of me because of my age and assuming I have a lower intelligence. But THEY are the ones with low intelligence when they make fun of youngsters, now I can just see people coming to rant this blog who disagree, but they are just "ghetto" people who like pop cultural music such as Gangnam Style or Harlem Shake. Those songs are truly idiotic just like the people who made them. If you make fun of kids than you should all leave the internet and just plain die in hole. If a kid is being immature, kick them from the game or ban them, but once they say they are young and ban them for it, BURN. IN. HELL. And remember, when you die, they are gonna live another 20 to 30 years. So shut up, bullies.

It's true that someone can be my age (15), yet people assume me to be much older because of how I act, build and type. It's a very true point.

What if, 11, 12 and 13 year olds actually act idiotic because they're trying to mimic some people of older age groups?

It's funny, when I go on servers and stick around for a while, and don't skype with someone, they think I'm around 15. Usually teenagers (like me,) aren't as mentally capable as adults, and usually are less mature then adults, but on the internet, that rule usually doesn't apply.
