And it really pisses me off when people say things like, "you’re that old and you play this game? Get a life, dude"

That has to be one of the most close-minded things to say. First, I have busted my ass to get where I am in life, which is I now can afford to do things that I want. And playing SS is my form of 'escaping' from the real world stress and shit. What is wrong with this?
Perhaps the best way think about this is that younger people are the ones who shouldn't be spending time playing this game, but rather out there establishing the groundwork for a productive and rewarding life.

Eph, you've earned your keep, so you're right, why not play and enjoy yourself? People can't tell you to "get a life" because you already have one.

Personally, my parents won't let me get a job because it would "affect my grades," so I spend free time on here instead of working. The only people that are calling others names are the ones that truly have nothing better to do with their time, save their homework.

Society has nothing to do with it. They ask you that question because that's the only thing they can think of to make fun of you about. Go to any arena in pub and wait for an argument to start up. Someone will eventually run out of points and will ask the other his age, and no matter what he answers, it gets turned against him.

Yes it does, society decree's that anyone who doesn't find the ideals of what you should be (in the case of this game a 16-19 year old male) is an outcast. However as everyone's so paranoid of being called a nerd then the standards get raised and everyone now has to be a 6' tall body building 16-19 year old male with a penis the length of the great wall of china

Never mistake knowledge for wisdom.

I'd rather have a small peewee than a mangina!

Earlier today Champ5 was saying "im going to be staff one day" Except add abunch of symbols and capitilization to that. I thought he was 12. I still think he's 12, but says he's 23. I know 7 year olds more mature than him.

I try cut people more slack if they are quite young. I do not expect the same level of maturity or emotions from people at different ages (i.e. a 12 year old vs. a 25 year old).

if we all remained anonymous, and there wasnt any chat on SS- it would be a much happier place.

its just a chat room for bitchy teenagers.

Hold on! I'm 46 and not a year older. My Dad (USMC) does play in the pubs ... he is 67. How does it feel to have your ass kicked by an old guy? LOL
