Age problems?

People under than 13 should be allowed to play tfm. How about they disable the chat for kids under 13? Plus it is easy to lie about your age lol

That would be incredible boring. Just playing but not being able to chat.

Well not for us older than 13 :P

That's kinda unfair for 12 years old. like me

Many of 'em are mature and deserve to chat.

Jesus, this thread is still going?

There is no way to legally ensure people under 13 can't do something online. Hell, I joined when I was 8. Yes, I knew the game had plenty of toxic players, and, at age 12, I'm one of them.

No, it doesn't affect my real life. On the other hand, it lets me express what I can't in real life.

I've posted on this thread a couple times, but I felt I needed to say more. People need to stop worrying about age online; it's 2017, get your big boy pants on.

Frankly there should be sub-servers for age groups. It's weird having to play with literal kids! I want to play with people in the same age range as me. >_< I don't mind if younger people play, but when I find out someone is actually 12 it just puts me off wanting to make friends. It's personally weird for me to be friends with someone close to my sisters age.

if you gave 7-year-old me a restriction, the first thing i'd do would be trying to fake my age in order to break the rules.

theres a literal ten year old roaming around here going on a tfm discord where people were actively talking about alcohol and then butting in. so if you say to get over peoples ages then you need to get off your high horse. its not that we wont accept the kids but its fucking WEIRD when youre like over 16 and theres a fucking 6 year old talking to you

People can just fake their age to avoid all of that stuff you know.
It's the internet. Anyone can do almost anything on here.

There are also mature kids these days you know. Put yourself in the shoes of a 10-year old who has the behavior of a 20-year old. Seems impossible, but there are people who are like that. So then they're put into a room with people of their age, but I think it'll make them kinda insane you know?
They're mature in which they're put in a room with people of their age that are immature, which could get really annoying and could change the 20 year old mindset to an insane one where they have to lecture the people all the time, yell at them to stop saying "noob" , etc. etc.

Also, look at Bepper's post again:

And what's the point of taking away the chat for younger kids? They won't be able to chat with their friends. Hell, I know some people use TFM as a meeting place for whenever they have projects with someone else, and they're 11.

TL;DR, It's impossible someone can completely and legitimately ensure that nothing "bad" gets on the internet.

True but not the point.

Lying is a piece of cake.

Im old and im playing a mouse game what im I doing with my life haha

#371

There's almost no point to putting an age restriction because it's most likely that many "underage" players will lie about their age.

#372

Im younger and my parents have seen this game and the swearing and allow me to play it. They understand that im mature enough not to repeat things online or offline. They trust me. Yes it is a bit of an issue with very young kids playing this game and picking up bad stuff, but I dont think people shouldn't be allowed to play or kicked off into another server simply because they are younger. I believe it is a parent's job to monitor what a child is doing unless they trust that child to make good choices while online. Just my thoughts.

I think they should require everyone to put in their age when they sign up for a Transformice account (since it's a 13+ game) and not allow them to play or to change it if they are too young.
Also, I think that if the kids are under a certain age, they shouldn't be able to chat or even see the chat since usually all the chat is full of is swearing from 14 year olds and other kids going "stop swearing I'm only 8."
Transformice should make it more clear that to play this game you must be 13 years old or older because there is foul language and such in the game.
One last thing, there is A LOT of nasty stuff going on in the game recently. I have reported a bunch of stuff as 'other' and commented with child pornography because of the stuff happening in the game. It's getting ridiculous and out of control and no matter how much I and other people report, the same people are still there doing it.

How do you guys feel about this stuff that's going on?

I don't think it would work, cause anyways they could put in any age they wanted.

"You have to be over 18, nah just kidding lmao" an april fools joke (even if it have already passed)

my mom gave my permission to play this game. so did my dad.

#379

it is so easy to fake your age on the internet nowadays.

since there are kids that play the game i suggest that they improve the language filter.

Everyone would complain about that plus kids that don't like swearing are probably used to it by now.
