Hello all! I haven't posted a blog in a while, I think around eight months so I thought I'd had a crack at one. In this blog I will be discussing why age does not matter for servers and staff.I know, I know. You must be thinking to yourself " Of course age matters if you want a successful server. I am here to tell you that it does not. In no way should age matter when you're picking staff or if you are staff.

So you log on to a server and the first thing you might see in the chat is a friendly little player saying "welcome to the server (your username)". You might dismiss this and just get to playing or you may say thank you back to them, either way, you will eventually start exploring. After a while of playing and exploring the server, you run into a bit of a problem, you find the biggest duplication glitch in Minecraft history. You decide to report it to an admin and the admin fixes it no problem. You continue with enjoying yourself on the server and after another long while of playinf, you find an invincibility glitch. You then report the glicth to the same admin whom you reported to earlier. They fix and and you go off on your way. You don't find any more glitches in your playing time so you decide to chat with some people. The admin also joins the chat and is quite respective about other peoples opinions. Everyone you are talking to are very intelligent and have an amazing understanding of how the server works and of how it works. After a while of chatting, you dedide to log out. You say your goodbyes and then log off and go do something else. You think you might be playing on that server more than you would have expected yourself to.

The next day, you log on and the same people are there again. They greet you with warm hellos and you go off to playng. After around an hour or so a new player comes on. You greet them the same way you were greeted when you first joined the server. After around ten minutes the player starts to rage and cuss at everyone. The admin politely asks him to calm down and tries to see if there is any problem. The player just continues to scream in chat with all caps and threatens to hack the server. He starts typing out racial slurrs and cuss words. The admin kicks the player from the server telling him to stop. He comes back and just continues. This results in a ban for the player.

What was the purpose of the short story above? It was to show people that even though you could perceive the new player as a child and the admin as an adult, they might not have been. Did you notice how I did not mention an age for the admin or player? But in your head you might have presumed the player to be an immature child and the admin to be a mature adult. I am now going to say the ages I actually had in mind for them. I had pictured the admin to be around the age of twelve and the new player to be around the age of seventeen. I was showing how it doesn't matter how old you are, what matters is your level of maturity and comprehension. The rest of the server I had pictured to be all scattered ages. I see so many server websites with forums that have staff application sections with the first or second thing on them is "How old are you". It makes me sad when servers are looking for new staff but choose the immature nineteen-year-old instead of the mature and respectful eleven-year-old.

I would like to say that if a server owner sees this post and has an minimum age to be staff on their server, to take it off. It makes people sad knowing that they can't even try to be a part of the server staff because they are too young. And I know that sometimes you hide it by saying "You aren't experienced enough but this nineteen-year-old is," even though that nineteen-year-old has only been playing on the server for around three weeks while you have been playing on it for around six months.
I mean, sure there are immature children and mature adults but there are also mature children and immature adults. Just keep this in mind next time you want to own a server and need staff.

I am done for today and am glad to be back. By the way, see if you can guess my age in the comments.

This is one of the blogs that I am extremely happy that made the popular reel because it deals with such an important subject to me. Thank a bunch everyone!

Happy is out. P.S. I do know that you do mature while aging, however there are people who are mature from a young age and people who don't show any signs of maturity. P.P.S. The story was made up, I wanted to make a realistic environment and I believe I have succeeded. P.P.P.S. THIS IS MY OPINION.
