What if the members 16 or older go through the same application process while those younger than 16 have to go through an extra set of tests to prove they are worthy and mature enough?

Be sure to "Get Whitelisted" to join the community on server!
They get whitelisted for Sundered, and then War and I can judge them to see if they are worthy?It'd require further discussion, but perhaps they could get whitelisted on the sundered skies server since the rules are less strict there
sexy is an extremly modern concept and makes no sence to have it in a roleplay situation where better words existnonono you don't understand.
I am okay with the swearing rules, but some of the words changed by the filter are just plain stupid...
I mean cmon, we can't even say SEXY!
And flirtatious is just fun to say~Lots of Old English terms for sexy that sound much more polite.~
Oh yes, to say people are quite becoming and you sir are quite dulcet. Very joyful!~And flirtatious is just fun to say~
Question...what percentage of the server are "Under 16"?We're increasing the minimum application age to 16.
Any existing whitelist posts or active players are grandfathered in, this applies to new applications only.
I wonder how often those words were used before the filter...There are some other words that were censored despite not really being rude, for example a sextet (musical term) and sexism. Which I suppose is rude, but only in sexism itself. The word is not wrong.
It was discussed within management and I decided it was a good idea if we want to improve the quality of roleplay here and actually be the mature roleplay server Altera claims to be.Question...what percentage of the server are "Under 16"?
*thinks this is a stupid idea*
Firstly, there have been people over the age of sixteen who have been very immature as well down right unpleasant, not quoting any names, as well as that age doesn't directly correlate to maturity, taking examples from previous events and using facebook as an example.You're free to mention it's a stupid idea, but without some solid reasoning of why it's a stupid idea, then the complaint simply fails because there's no reasoning behind it.
I can't help but agree with this Salley... This is only saying to me you might need to revisit that idea... :SFirstly, there have been people over the age of sixteen who have been very immature as well down right unpleasant, not quoting any names, as well as that age doesn't directly correlate to maturity, taking examples from previous events and using facebook as an example.
Furthermore you avoided answering my question on the percentage, because if it's high then implementing this may either stunt the growth of the server or kill it off completely, thus backing up my statement of it being a "stupid idea". If it was in a staff meeting as you said previously then surely someone may have mentioned the fact that a fairly significant percentage of the player base is under that age.
And that would lead to either segregation of the players, or a decrease in moral, making those younger feeling confused, frustrated or either betrayed.
Also going back to the previous statement about maturity, there is no direct link between maturity and age, meaning that's a flawed argument, So yes i do believe this is a very... let's not say stupid but rather poor choice of direction for you to take this.
p.s. don't get mad at me i'm just speaking my mind.
Considering my mother is over 50 and acts like a spoiled teenager, I'm very well aware of the fact that age =/= maturity.Firstly, there have been people over the age of sixteen who have been very immature as well down right unpleasant, not quoting any names, as well as that age doesn't directly correlate to maturity, taking examples from previous events and using facebook as an example.
