There are quite a few sites that have the 13 age as a border for which under they should ask their parents permission to come here, mostly because of language usage.
I don't know about the rest of you, but this is a wargame, I would expect that most people are above 13 years. Especially the ones that pay for certain parts of the game play and frequent visitors of the forum.
Oi.. I beg to differ.
The average age of the SGW player is far lower than one would originally think, mate.

As for 13 being an accurate age to separate by, that's a thing I dislike. I say one needs be 18 when signing up for these forums.. but meh.. that's not my call.

lmao.. Christians aren't afraid of hell, since they believe in their salvation.

Hence, there's no need to be afraid of invoking said 'conquered' power.
Maybe Mojo knows how to say it better.

He's better in explaining this kind of thing than I am.

Erm average age is here between 16 and 21.
Alot of people have between 15 and 23, many between 23 and 32, some between 32 and 42, few above this, and not that much under 15.

There was a poll if I recall, but I know it because I've been surfing this forums for a while now. I don't even know precisely how I am aware of this though

Now thats a lot closer to the estimates of which I thought it would be.
Perhaps a serious Age poll ?

Ok, i didnt read thru all this and i dont normally post in things like this but i just wanted to voice my opinion.
You say hell is a place, i agree with you there, but when people use it its mostly used as a swear word, as in what the h*** and other ways like that. now i dont say hell or any other swear words, but i dont really think hell is a bad swear word, so as far as modding it i think it was kinda stupid as ppl are saying GD and other cuss words that i personally think are worse than hell.
so bassically, i dont say it as i think it is a cuss word when used in certain situations, but im not gonna get on somebody and mod it and stuff if some1 says it.

Your statement is semi-true jack, but what you picture there is already an extreme situation, ... tensed mods, heavy exams ...
It was not my intention nor insinuation that such should be needed. Especially the tensed mods >.>
Manny people know the english language, how to spell, how to write, how to read. This does not mean the same person can read between the lines or grasp certain context.
Modding here om sgw gotta be realy hard, especially with such enormous diversity of languages and cultures from players all over the world. And seeing as most come here to play a war game. I would reckon most have a thick skin and could possibly even handle a bit more faul language then other people; playing something like sims for example.
anywaysz
I can't realy see a simple test turning out in the situation you portayed.

if it's already hard, making it harder would cause more stress build up in the mods. the problem with this, is that even if it's only a little bit, stress will keep on building until it's allowed to be released. these mods may not have ways to release said stress because the forums were originally their stress reliever(was for me.) eventually, it could reach a point where even modding a simple thing will make them snap, there's no way to tell where stress build up will end, and your idea would add stress. maybe not directly, but it will.
