Voicechat.

[Uncle_bob]

If you're a male under the age of 18, do everyone a favor and stop using voicechat on videogames. That shit's fucking annoying. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif

That is all.

[Kent]

Not all of us that used voice chat while under 18 were annoying. :/

I pretty much haven't changed since I started using Xbox Live, back when it was in beta... Of course, I'm probably one of very few. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

[Uncle_bob]

Shit's still annoying.

"GUYS. GUYS. HEY GUYS. GUYS COME OVER HERE I FOUND A COOL SAFE SPOT WHERE THEY CAN'T GET US."

"GUYS? GUYS! GUYS! COMON GUYS!"

I don't like hearing a little kid's voice when I'm playing a game that's rated for people 18 and up.

[Morpheo]

T= teen which means 13 and up....... theres also the muting option, just use that, no1s gonna listen to u here...

This isn't against the rules, those rules are meant for interacting with members on the forum, not talking about something entirely different.

I do agree though. I had a Chromehounds squad running for a while, one kid was such a god damn nuisance. He'd log on, and say "Hola -whoever-", and unless you stopped whatever you were saying and said hello to him, he'd repeat "Hola...Hola guys....guys hola...boss..hola..." SHUT THE FUCK UP! I heard you! HI!!!

Funny though, I've played afew games where the little kids would get impatient and start yelling. They just don't have the social skills yet, they'll hopefully learn.

My biggest gripe, are the all-out shit-talkers; they kill you, they degrade and spit the most absurd put-downs and smacktalk, you kill them, they spit forth the stupidest shit abit more. What is it with shit-talkers? It's not even mere smack-talk, it's shit-talk. I'm happy when I realise they're prolly some lonely overweight dood who if he said it to anyone in person(if he even had the gall to say it in person) would be nothing more than a smear on the pavement.

Shit-talkers are worse than little kids in my eyes; but I end up muting and blocking communication from both.

rofl lmao. That kid needs to be slapped up the head. He's like 5 and he's cussing to his mom....WOW. I would get beat so bad.


anyways, There's this one server I regular at in CS and so many kids go there. I finally got fed up and typed voice_enable 0 in console. Sweet silence http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_yes.gif

[Uncle_bob]

Morpheo, get off my fucking balls. I wasn't singling anyone out. However, I'd bet my left nut you're angry because you fall under the category of annoying children with headsets.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:421px-HL2box.jpg Essentially, this is the game in question since I was playing a mod for it. Half-Life 2 is 17+.

And Ronin, that video is horribly depressing. If I had a child, I'd beat the shit out of him for backtalking like that. God damn.

Edit: Additionally, turning voice-chat off would mean that I couldn't hear the people I NEED to hear.

[Sinue_v2]

No offense man, but grow the hell up. So what if he doesn't want to play with you because he doesn't want to hear your screechy little 15 year old voice? That's life, and you're going to run into a lot of that shit, so I suggest you just learn to turn the other cheek take it in stride or you're going to have a rough road ahead of you. You don't have to be running around and posting about your "awful oppression by the adults" off-topic in other threads.

Maybe that's just a rant all unto itself, and I'm not just singling you out - as I seem to run across this a lot. Kids and Teenies who cry and whine about how "It's not FAAAAIIIIRR to descriminate against you based on age", and proceed to throw a tantrum when they don't get invited or involved in the group. Yeah, way to prove that maturity.

The high-pitched squeekie kid voice is just icing on the cake... or rather, the nails on the caulkboard.


If I had a child, I'd beat the shit out of him for backtalking like that.

QFT. That's after I rip the Ethernet cord out of the back of the Xbox, hopefully leaving the jack still in the ethernet port, and taking the little shit out back with a sludgehammer and force him to smash his own Xbox at the risk of an ass-whooping, which would still result in ME smashing it.

You gotta at least put the sludgehammer in his hand and make him feel a bit of that psychological "Oh god did I fuck up" tension...

I agree, which is why I provoke them until they flip out and get booted, unless they're party leader, then I mute them XD

[DikkyRay]

Dude. Umkle, i know where you are getting at.
Me and My Cousin were playing Dead or Alive 4 On Live. We didnt use a mic since we didnt want to, but it seemed everyhone we fought had a high pitch squeal. Creeped me the hell out

[amtalx]

At least we don't have to deal with the voice masks anymore. That was a bad idea to begin with.

Kids rarely realize that they're often a secondary market when it comes to games.

[ABDUR101]

Yes, because all grown men live in mummy's basement and don't have a life outside of the 15-hour days of gaming that most fifteen year olds have. Oh, Forte'toker', you sly one! Such wit! And with a 'homo' added on to boot!

You are my new favorite member. =]


However, yes, kids are a secondary market. Gaming did'nt just happen in the last 15 years, it's been going ever since Pong, and the people who kicked ass at Pong have grown up and no doubt are the ones looking forward to Halo 3 even more-so than the kid-demographic who take alot of whats around and possible in gaming today for granted. The original gamers have aged, but they are very much still in the loop; and have been out of 'mummies' basement for a long, long time.

[Morpheo]

i broke my mic 1/2 a year ago, havnt talked since, got a keyboard and im good....

[Sgt_Shligger]

I think the best part about kids ranting here is when they don't take the time to write coherent sentences http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/blush.gif

And I have to add I hate hearing a little kids voice, especially when it's smack talking against me one second and then crying because "I used an Auto Sniper" or some shiet.

[Meyfei]

i just got to use my headset as a mic beat that XD <note: talk in left ear>

lol try playing live with a headset and these dudes telling you to go **** a cows c**k hehe when you cant say anything back and ur too busy to type

[AlexCraig]

My solution to dealing with annoying little kids on online games, not playing online games. Simple and effective.

Running away from a problem isn't the solution.

And for all the kiddies out there: Yes, I still live with my family, and I'm not ashamed to say that. Living on your own is fucking expensive, especially when you live in the south. Get a job and you'll find out first hand.

I pay my own car insurance, gas, phone bill, and I pay my family $50 per week. I also buy groceries, mow the yard, fix shit, and cook. Did I mention I work 40 hours per week? Alright. So, we've established I'm not a fat sack of shit dwelling in my parents' basement (can't even have basements here, they'll flood).

All I fucking want is to play a game marketed toward people 18 and up without hearing some fucking 11 year old bitching about chocolate milk or how I'm fucking cheating or some god damned nonsense like that. Please do present your opinions on how horrible I am for this, I'm still right.

[AlexCraig]

I understand your point. I was more or less speaking of my own case. I haven't found any interesting online games, I don't want to pay the fees for said games, and I just don't want to deal with all of the problems on them. Kids being one of those problems.

As for your last paragraph, I empathize with you. You should be able to go on without having to listen to some brat complain and brag about this and that. People like that, while they generally do have the right to be on, should not be on.

Some of the best online games are, gasp, free to play online! Uncle has a bit more tollerance than myself as I simply turn off voice chat.

Sure the whiny, squeeky, pre-ball-dropping teens are annoying but how about those tards that leave the mic on and huff and puff away on it? Or the ones that insist their music absoultely must be heard by the rest of the world and thus play it over their shitty mic? I'm probably talking about the same group of tards Uncle is talking about, but I know of some damned stupid adults that do it as well.

[AlexCraig]

Eh, free or not, I still haven't found any that peak my interest.

[Weeaboolits]

Pique, rather. (Sorry, it jus' kinda' bothered me)

I'd play online if I had the funds, I'm on PS2, so I don' have to deal with it, but I can see where you're comin' from, peeps are stupid, when given audio, they're even worse. :/

I've had a voice (probably deeper than yours) since I was 15... Trust me, I have a lot of people give me the "wow, you have a deep voice" comment... I know someone who's just turning 19 but he sounds like he's 14...not annoying, but he just sounds younger. Age is not a good basis for who sounds annoying and who doesn't.

I don't care if you're 45 years old. If you have a voice like Gilbert Godfrey or Bob Goldthwait - then you need to keep your mouth shut and use the keyboard.

Okay. I don't care about your puberty.

[TheyCallMeJoe]

I'm guilty of spamming the airwaves with useless insults and quotes from random books. That was only once, after I had Red Bull for the first time, but enough excuses.

'Tis true though, many of my fellow teenagers can't keep their mouths shut, and for some reason whenever I hear a particularly irritating fellow I can't help but imagine them having an account named "Sephiroth this" or "Cloud Strife that" somewhere on the internet, since all of annoying ones seem to follow the same vein.

You're missing the point. I never said anything about going through puberty, stop dreaming.

I simply stated that it's possible that a 15-year old could sound older than you could...I've played PSU with a couple people online who acted like they were 20-ish and they were really 13.

[Weeaboolits]

He was speaking in generalities. Younger peeps are USUALLY less mature, I'm sure there are 40 year olds that act like little kids, and I'm sure there are kids who act mature, but apparently not most, or this topic'd be about a different age group, yeah? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

You realize that by beating this dead horse like you are, that you are simply proving his (and your own) point(s), yes?
