Why won't anyone think of the children?

[A2K]

Typical sensationalist nonsense, but...

http://www.komotv.com/news/5983826.html

The article does not mention PSU ("popular roleplaying game") by name, but I think the picture speaks for itself.

Excerpt:

Parker and fellow gamer Craig Hagman point to a popular role playing game as an example. It includes a virtual social room where strangers can talk to each other through the characters.

"I'm playing this little cute girl character and I've apparently attracted 3 admirers right here," he said, pointing to male characters approaching his character. "A lot of people take advantage of the anonymity and do whatever they want."

Within minutes players asked for "strip shows on camera," pornography, some even offered game points in exchange. When Hagman tried to start a chat, one player responded by offering "sexual favors."

"This game brings out the bad stuff because it's more casual social," Hagman said.

Sounds like Xbox 360 Universe 1 to me. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif

i think that might have been the funniest thing i've seen all week... look at youtube's clip :ninja pays half my rent"... almost xD but close

[Syl]

Yeah that pic is exactly what I saw from noobs on the 360 demo...

[Midicronica]

OMFG! I lawl'd.

Honestly, they don't believe that those people on the game are 30-40 year old men, right? The majority of the people on Universe 1 on 360 that are complete jackass' are 12 year old kids. That's all pretty ridiculous, if you ask me.

the mother at the bottom...I feel the vilest things towards... they are the type that fuck up games for everyone else because they don't try to learn or pay attention to what their kids are doing and then you have reporters blaming developers for putting features in that are not for kids... and even though there are parental controls and the greatest rating system out there it's the developers fault the kids play the games and/or act out. v.v I wish aliens were real just so they could kill those people and get away with it.

Why is she vile? Because she's concerned about what her kid is seeing? She admitted that she doesn't know much about online gaming, therefore I would think that she can't log herself on and see what it's all about. I think it's the fucktards who type shit like that and think it's funny who are the "vile" ones. These people have a lack of concern for others. Or should I say children. Because a majority of the annoyances in online gaming are probably males ages 12-18. THAT is why us geezer gamers call you stupid kids.

I definately agree with that. I don't think enough people think exactly who's on the other side of the monitor seeing what you're typing. Why do you think some words come out @#$* it's not test you to find a way to crack it but to keep things a clean enviroment.

[Mattardo]

Wow. He's right. parents need to stop being idiots and buying their children anything they want. Videogames and the internet should not be babysitters. If parents can't take an active interest in their children's hobbies, than they need to go to parenting school. There is something to be said for requiring a test in order to have children. Every time some moronic parent finds out their kid is browsing porn on the internet, it's never the parent's faul. Nooo, it's the government's fault, or the internet's fault. Let's all sue people, as long as the finder isn't pointed at ourselves. Responsibility. Why not give a loaded gun to a 7 year old and then sue the gunmaker? It's practically the same thing.

[DurakkenX]

it's vile because of the reasons i put...they are not concerned with what their kids are doing and could care less until it's too late and then they decide to blame those who are doing their job. Of course reading and understanding is a necessity which for some reason has become uncommon.

That article was fairly interesting, even though about 1/2 of it was incorrect. As others posted before its mostly teenagers tricking lovesick 12 year-olds in giving them meseta, then logging off and never communicating with that person again. Maybe some of it is for real, but I doubt it. And most mothers have no idea what is being exposed to their children, and its not their fault for the things appearing on the screen, it would be the other user displaying their rather distasteful way of gathering money. But hey, s*** happens.

[JAFO22000]

You guys do understand that it's impossible to watch your kids 24/7, right? All of us have been kids and have done stuff that we shouldn't have behind our parents backs. Hell, I used to get up at 2 in the morning to watch the nudie flicks on Cinemax. Don't think that you were the only kid smart enough to get something by your parents. And please, there is a difference between negligent child rearing and the simple fact that you can't watch your kids at all times. Perhaps the parent shouldn't get the child online with their console? I can agree with that, but most non-gamers in the world are NOT aware of the crap that's spewed in lobbies of games all over the place. Giving your 10 year old access to the internet on his Xbox so he can play games with his friends seems pretty safe. Only those in the know understand what really goes on in these games.

And, if you want to blame, I would blame the parents of the kids who feel they have to spew cuss words all over the place because it's "kewl". THESE are the kids whose parents didn't pay attention.

It's Ethan. He thinks he's God.

I can justify this though. He has one too many problems if he can say such a comment.

[DurakkenX]

#1 it says on the box it's T, but content varies because of online. T meaning it's 13 and above meaning that adults play the game (negligent act #1)
#2 to access xbox live you must have a cred card which kids should not have access to (negligent act #2)
#3 Game consoles as do all electronics are fairly easy to work and come with manuals if you can't find your way around which most people ignore (negligent act #3)
#4 Game consoles are expensive as are games to get any number of them or get a good set up or even get one now adays. The parent is either giving the money and not paying attention about what their kid is buying, buying it themselves, or the kid is buying the system with money from some place where most likely they should not have gotten...I'm not saying kids can't get money or save up the money for consoles, but it is unlikely and those who can are either over priveledged or good kids anyways. either way this is (negligent act #4)

On the reverse side...
#1 Rating are put on boxes
#2 Placing parental controls on a system
#3 Word censors
#4 GMs
#5 players who respect that others may have kids online or watching and watch out for them
#6 ISPs moniter a lot of inteactions and put limits on content
#7 Parental controls on most internet things.

In other words the companies can not do much more to solve people being irresponsible about kids. Hell it's pretty much a fact that the whole generation of people that grew up during the 50s, 60s, 70s, and some of the 80s while they have created many wonderful things are a bunch of irresponsible pot heads that tend to blame others and don't know the first thing about most of what they have created or any of what came before them. It's quite pathetic really that we live under such a group of people that are out of touch with the way things are that they can't figure out that pressing a button left or right or down will cause an action on a screen. Hell my mom who is mentally handicapped can figure this shyt out. If you can't you prolly shouldn't have kids.

I would say something mean... but I am a firm believer in Darwinism, and agree with this. Alas, the stupid and weak don't die as fast in modern society, but they are really good at spreading and breeding their moron gene into children they shouldn't be allowed to have.

Call me whatever you wish, say whatever mean things you want towards me. But we all know that this world would be a better place if half the population was gone, and we required people to take an IQ test before having children.

On subject, I actually laughed out loud when I saw that picture of PSU. Gives a plus side to PC/PS2, I have never once seen anyone spam something like that for money.

I may sound like a cranky old man, but parents these days need a whuppin. Sure, ya can't watch your damn kids 24/7 : because you're negligent little selfish brats who achieved parenthood with 30 seconds of moaning and the inability to spring for a $1 condom! Yessuh, in my day, folks waited tuh get married until they had a little common sense. My son Billy turned out to be a ragin' wife beater who couldn't hold a job! Ya know why? I'sa tell ya why! 'cause I beat his mother in front of his face every dern darn day and never made sure he did his homework. Yup, too worried about mah wife sleepin with the milkman, to worry about Billy's homework! Yessuh! ... But seriously, the majority of the population shouldn't be reproducing, let alone raising them. It used to be that the smartest, bravest and ablest people were guaranteed by the community a mate, to continue the line in what was best for the community: more smart, brave people. Now, anyone can have a child regardless of whether they can deal with it. Then they whine at the government for help,and boohoo when little Billy catches nudy flicks of cinemax at night and try to sue Cinemax. Parental Locks, people....parental locks. And a belt. Yep, boy howdy.

Oh, you're not the only one that thinks these things. My mother-in-law's a high school teacher and according to her, the only thing worse than her students are their parents, who expect the school/society/somebody/anybody to raise their little hellions for them.

The truth is, she's not the only one who sees that. At my workplace, I hear tales upon tales about "adults" who are too busy climbing the corporate ladder/rechasing their youth/being a wage slave/insert excuse here to really focus on their children.

I have an eighteen-year-old brother who's going to college this fall. My parents never worried about what "filthy, violent" games he played, because they either monitored them, or in many cases, actually played with him (not coincidentally, my mother really kicks ass with Charlie at Street Fighter Alpha 3). When I was growing up, they didn't have to worry about what I was exposed to, because they monitored and watched it as well. THAT's responsibility.

And no, you can't watch your children 24/7. But if you take the time to at least do the job 16/7, those remaining 8 hours a day are going to be harmless bumps and bruises we call growing up in a normal household.

/Clap.

Someone who understands.

My mother has been a public high school teacher in the shitty little suburb I grew up in for almost 30 years now. She can attest about the parents, as well as the children.

One time I was there moving boxes for her, and one of her children called her a bitch. Now he got a quick punch to the nose by me (I mean, I am her son), but I couldn't even imagine how the hell you even get raised to say things like that to someone older/in authority.

I am in the EMS field, so I deal with the extremes of stupidity, but it is shocking even to me some times how irresponsible people can be. I have seen people get shot, stabbed, had hands cuts off, all with the most retarded reasons you can fathom.

I don't really know where I am going with this. But for all those people who blame games/movies/whatever for the corruption of the children I pity you.

My brother, sister, and myself all came out remotely normal. Why? My mother and father actually paid attention to use enough to make sure we didn't screw up too bad. I mean yeah, we have all gotten in our fair share of trouble, but my brother is officially a war vet now and an electrical engineer, and I just got my EMT-B and am going to school to get my Paramedic.

Any parent who blames someone else for the faults of their children, shouldn't have children to begin with.

Edited to add my little rant.

Charlie is awesome.

Cammy's better.

[DurakkenX]

as far as the 24/7 thing well let's break it down a little...

kids should be sleeping 8-10 hours a day sooo automatically that kicks that time to...
14-6/7
then your kids should be in school about 6-7 hours so that knocks it down to
7-10/7
Most kids also get 1-4 hours of busy work from class a day as well so...
3-9/7
Let's not forget the fact that most kids also shower daily and take about an hour so that's
2-8/7
and if kids go to school most take about 30 mins there and back which adds to an hour so
1-7/7
How bout food...shyt that's
0-6/7
should i mention the time that kids spend on the phone and doing hair and such...and yes boys today DO do their hair and that equals prolly 2-3 hours a day for those miscelaneous things so...
-3-3/7

so you're telling me that parents cannot spend 21hours with their kids a week? and that's not even being with them all those hours it's just like seeing what they're doing... I find that hard to believe.

I don't know about the rest of the world, but all my friends tend to come from dysfunctional families that consider them the blacksheep, and they all say they wish their parents would have dished out more punishment. Hell according to the research the generation AFTER the 80s have personalities and morals most like their GRANDPARENTS.

Also if you've looked at all the information...THE ONLY THING that is bad about video games is that they make you sit around which is quickly becoming less and less true. Everything else is positive and is the source for much of the improvements we are seeing in various aspects.

ONE CANNOT ATTRIBUTE VIOLENCE TO VIDEO GAMES for the simple fact that violence in video games, which has grown in more general popularity as, and Movies has GROWN, yet violence and general teenage unrest has gone down. Yes there have been major violent events too, but what kind of fucktard parent doesn't notice a disturbed kid who is building weapons and changing their look over a short period of time?

I'm not saying that those people who are referenced in that article are right, but let us not blame the idiots that let that happen.

Oh and btw...the major advocate of games being banned said he would pay anyone that would make his idea of "blah blah blah blah crazy random violence" into a game and someone did it and then he recanted. and refused to go through with it. I don't know about you but I'd rather put more faith in the person with the creativity to create a game then a politician who can't back up his words.

It seems to me that the youth are more intelligent, more responsible, and more in touch with government and economy than just about any adult out there. Perhaps I should go quote what was said by the 13 year old and what was said by the 30+ year old. One spoke a few well thought out sentences while the other could barely make a sentence and just repeated themselves.

And don't even get me going on the education system of this country or the history...I'd be willing to bet that 75-90% of what 90% of the people believe is absolutely wrong about history.

[Randomness]

You're doing it all wrong. Assume a kid gets home at 3 PM. Alot 30 min. for dinner, 2 hours for homework and chores, and you have 5:30+ free. You can't count showers and such that happens before school.

[DurakkenX]

5.5 hours is still only 38.5 hours...and I'm pretty sure i'm forgetting plenty...

If you want your kids to make something of themselves take them to the wilderness and let them explore. Don't let them have technology all the time... That's one of the biggest flaws with this generation is that they don't have any respect for tech or people and they simply don't have any life experience outside a video game and schools.

hell talk to most developers and they'll say the same thing...regulate your kid's experience with tech... Video game developers are the busiest people that i have EVER come across and they have plenty of time to moniter their kids. I fail to see how someone with a less stressful and less busy job has less time v.v

Maybe because we live in a world with a 24-hour news cycle and back in the old days where they would have said something wasn't newsworthy enough to make the 6 o' clock news, people nowadays say "Hey, we now have a 10-minute story we can run for the next 24 hours, about 20 minutes past the hour?"

[DurakkenX]

"why" you ask? Isn't that a bit obvious? We have have at minimum 4 local chanels reporting the news, 10-20 national channels reporting the news, a few reporting world news, and then we have the internet which has news posted on it quicker the news channels can find out about it. We have at least 5 newspapers that come out daily, and several million blogs, as well as 20+ comedians that make a crack about any news story that is popular for the moment, and several hundred more that steal those jokes. About 250million of the 300 million people in this country have both satellite and high speed internet not only at home but on their cell phones and if you miss something on tv you can catch it on you tube or any other number of site on the net or just look up a news companies website...that is if you don't hear about over a phone conversation, or on a scroll bar during one of your shows, or in a 30second ad for the news, you will hear it during break or small talk during work, and if not there then you'll over here it from a colleague or someone talking on their cell phone or have some politician making some statement about it. And if it's anything that can be taken to court you will more than likely hear about it on court tv...and since sports, music, and hollywoods stars think they are politicians and/or go to court so much more than likely you'll hear something about it from them in a song, interview, or as clever pun in a movie or sitcom.

Why do people make such a big deal out of a little idiocy? Simply put, we have too much information without enough education. Most people are also bored and our entire life is filled with trying to fill it with something meaningful, but the majority of us can't because you need to be extremely lucky to get anything going really in this world and not much talent, skill, or intelligence to do anything. Our culture needs to catch up to our technology. Until it can, which wont be for another couple decades at minimum, you'll either have to be a complacent sheep or a sheepdog ^.^

I've already taken the "Red Pill" so to speak. So I already know exactly what you are talking about.

Most would think me absolutely insane if I explained in detail the actual truths of the world. I think you are definately on one of many paths to realizing many of those truths. Good luck in your journey.

For far to many, it's very easy to remain "asleep", and "static."

Back on topic. To put it simply, stupidity and ignorance only begets more inane stupidity. If parents cannot learn to adapt so they may raise mature, wise and intellegent offspring; then it's just another factor leading to the decline of a cohesive or peaceful society and extinction.

To many parents don't take proper actions to raise their children, and don't seem feel the need to be responsible for raising those children.

Blaming products and creations of fiction like certain types of videogames is a stupid and easy scapegoat to blame things on, other than who's really to blame. Themselves.

But it's not like the planet will really miss us once we all are gone.
