In my opinion, age has no influence on that. Doesn't matter if they are eight or twenty-two, they can still just have that trait where they think "annoying people makes me cool".the monopoly guy post=7.69562.664424 said:
Should Eleven Year-Olds Play on Xbox Live?
- Thread starter Logan Frederick

Talking about kids playing halo like that is one thing, but his kid sounds far from some that i'm sure everyone has heard, spouting the same "FUCK YOU NOOB,NOOB,NOOB,NOOB,NOOB, SHUT UP, YOU SUCK" in their 11 year old voice. Its because most 11 year olds don't have the maturity to handle some of those situations.. like losing, or getting stuck 
. They also don't have the maturity to respond the way someone of an older age probably would, so they spam words like "Fuck,Noob" and generally annoy everyone with the decency not to unplug and throw away their mic the second they start talking.

The apparent maturity of the kid above notwithstanding, 11-year olds don't even belong on the internet, much less XBox Live. He plays M-rated games? Where are his parents and do they know what he's doing?
As Yahtzee eloquently put it, "Hooting dickholes" on XBox Live have ensured that I will never, ever be found there.

i dunno if im that annoyed by 11 year old kids and under because any threats or insults they can muster i can talk right down,i get pissed when i get trashtalked by some racist kids who feel if they have to say racist slurs about every minority they have in there little town in beverly hills
Should eleven years olds play on Xbox Live?
Yes, to not would be ageist.
The ERSB is a guideline only.
Besides not only "T" or "M" games are online (A game of UNO anyone?)

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
I laugh as I read this.
KIDS are not the victims of profanity and harassment in xbox live. THEY ARE THE PROBLEM. 50% of kids I run into run their mouths. Older mature people have manners.
I don't believe kids shouldnt play xbox live, but i do think they should'nt be allowed mics.

Doesn't Xbox Live have different zones, like a family zone where people can play with their kids and only play against other family zone players etc...? In that case, shouldn't Microsoft be policing these zones more stringently to ensure they don't have people swearing and so on in there?
Xbox Live is only really for people who can take the verbal abuse, or mute the offenders. Then shoot them in the face with a shotgun and laugh to yourself.
It isn't even about the swearing or the ability to "take insults" for me. It's about people behaving in a horrible manner to other people, purely because of their safety net- their anonymity. I'd love to see one of those kids say crap like that to me in real life. And the attitude bubbles over.
I believe it's seriously becoming a problem today. It's so easy for people to exercise their ID online and spew hateful and racist garbage. You DIDN'T see that in the 80's, or even early 90's for that matter.
The internet encourages people to act like troglodytes.

It doesn't matter what age rating a game has, you're always gonna have dicks call you ***** and other stuff
Nope. If the kids weren't listening to how older people swear, they wouldn't pick up these bad maneers. Then, they wouldn't pass it on to younger children, and so on, and so on. The circle closes.KenzS post=7.69562.665261 said:

I can hear out even an 8-year old kid, if he has something interesting to say. I played lots of times with matures, that talked like complete analphabetes, and kids, that could use language better than even I do.
Apparently logic is being thrown out the window. If you don't like what people are saying, take off your headset. You can still hear the people talking out of the speakers? There are volume buttons on your remote controls for a reason. I find it annoying when people won't stop talking about something irrelevant on Xbox Live. So you know what I do? I take off my headset and lower the volume. I can still hear gunshots, so what's the problem? Anyone should be able to play on Xbox Live.
i think they should it is the kids and parents decicision to let them. and i dont see how anyone has more right to the internet then anyone else
