Immature and ignorant kids these days

[b]Yes its another one of these threads. Sorry for cluttering up the front page![/b]

So my story for todayBEWARE OF WALL-OF-TEXT. IF YOU WANT TO READ SHORTER VERSION, PLEASE LOOK BELOW)
Me and my new guild mates (I was admitted into their guild) were training in L.K.C. in Bearwolves. We originally had six people, but two left, so we recruited more people. Eventually we added this Evan, who was in his 130s. Since we had a priest/bishop, he would ask for H.S. Since the priest/bishop is also controlling a Dark Knight, she has to switch back and forth. One time, she used holy symbol on all of us, except for him because he was a away from the holy symbol range. She didn't notice that she didn't buff him, so she didn't go after him. When his buff was gone, within a time period of 5 seconds, he hollers out in these exact words: "HS. HS! OMG HS! OMFG HS!". He never gave time for her to switch out from her D.K. to her priest. We all found that incredibly rude, because then he started using profanity on us. He/She was attacking us only because we couldn't use the buff automatically. We try settling this argument in a civilized manner, but he kept attacking us. In response, we had to take action to defend ourselves. We started arguing with him also, as we trained. Eventually he reveals himself as a 12 year old, and calling us "no-lives" without evidence. He soon died and just left us.

Long story short for you guys that doesn't want to read the wall-of-text: An 12 year-old playing an Evan couldn't get what he wanted and blamed on his (my/our) party for not buffing him. He soon attacked on us all solely because he can't talk like a calm civilian. He soon ran away like nothing happened.

How do you handle such people like this? I'm am not judging him over thousands of preteens and children. I am just saying that there is a specific group of kids who are really ignorant and immature. Haven't your parents taught you any manners?
Have a happy Thanksgiving in advance!

I think it's far more annoying when you run into a 25 year old who acts like a 12 year old.

Can't blame a child for being... well... a child. Blame his or hers parents for not teaching them proper online manners. But the maturity comes with age and experience.

Take it from someone who works with kids that age.

Kids only come out like that because their parents don't [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nn5jlrxcpkI]beat them.[/url]

You're complaining about 12 yr olds on a 2d Cartoon game with chibi looking characters?

I think ignorant and immature should be fused into one word.
Igmature.
Yeah.
People in Maplestory are Igmature because there is virtually no consequence.

why is it the rude preteens of ms call teens who play it "no lives" or "pathetic"? its a video game, theres no cut off age, there may be a suggested age range but its just that, SUGGESTED! people play video games because they're fun not because some other player says they're too old or too young.

And that is why I run Maple solo. I have run into 99% rude people mostly kids and they just have 0 respect.
I'm better off staying away from all of them.

Because you didn't uppercase you "I" or end your sentence with a period.jkjk....
The TS is ageist obviously. I've met 17yr olds who have done the same thing as that 12yr old.

Just take it in your stride. You are the bigger person (and I'm not talking about age!), and arguing with the likes of these people is just a waste of time. Personally, I would have kicked him immediately...there's always a person looking for party at LHC.

Kick him from the party and be done with it?

Well let's see. I was in Magatia PQ. I get a team together. There's this DK that joins and begins leeching. Stands at the far left of the screen the entire time and doesn't use any buffs while the rest of the team fights. In the next stage he starts going "HASTE! HASTE!" And I say "why do you need haste to leech?" and I forget but he had some witty little response. So there's this stage where if you go to the center it spawns monsters and the leader has to go into dialogue with someone so while I start the dialogue he runs to the center to spawn the monsters knowing he has a chance at killing me because I won't be able to heal and he's just like HAHAHAHAHAHA I managed to get out just in time to heal myself. So after the PQ he logs on different characters tracking me and then defaming me and saying "DUMB BROAD" every time.

[quote=akafaze]It just depends on their maturity level. Some kids may act like adults, while some adults may act like children. Usually people tend to judge others by their age, but how they present themselves and conversate is far more significant.[/quote]Great post.

[quote=uppercool1]Nice allusion you have there.

Now, to get to the point. Because Maplestory has almost literally turned into a revolutionized game with a 10 - 13 year-old society, the best course of action is to ignore people. In this case, you (your party leader) could have kicked the scoundrel from the party, the moment he was being disrespectful to your party (the members of the party who are not affiliated with him).
Personally, I always avoid party areas, because of scemarios like your's.[/quote]

Actually, we did kick him out. Right when he started to argue with us angrily. He started saying "I still gain experience even if I'm not in it". We politely asked to please leave, but he stayed until he died and ran away. He was quite disrespectful and he jumped into conclusions before resolving our problem.

Yes I understand that. Which is why at the bottom I said that I don't want to judge every 12 year old child. I just want to target those who are very ignorant and immature to others while playing a game.
