I think I'm leaving

I'm leaving this forum. Why? Because people are so mean! I post my picture and downvotes start falling of from air. I say "I like Pewds" then another rain of downvotes come. I talk about something troubles my mind about The Walking Dead and everybody insults me saying "Are you stupid or what?"
Maybe you could have a little respect for children here.

    Not only downvotes. What about the insulting? I am a 12 year old child for god's sake. They insult no matter how old are you. Nobody cares. They know that you are a kid, yet they insult you.

  • This is the internet in general just about every site/forum has trolls like Reddit, IGN, YouTube, Giant Bomb and pretty much any company's community sites.

    TellTale community is actually a good site thanks to the Moderators. If you do fill someone is harassing you here just tell a Moderator.

  • Sorry kid, assholes are a natural hazard of any community. Come back when your skin thickens (or better yet, once you've matured a little bit).

    1. Ignore the dumb downvotes. I say ignore the upvotes, too, but some people seem to think they're worth something.
    2. Are people mean on the Internet? Well, yeah. And sometimes they're mean just because they have a different point of view than you. But sometimes they do have a point. This is good practice for determining if what they say is worth considering, or if they really are just idiots who should be dismissed outright, in which case they aren't worth thinking about anymore. You need experience to tell the difference.
    3. When determining if you should quit or keep reading, just figure out how much time you spend at this place, and if the potential rewards you get for being here are worth the time spent. If not, then yeah, you should quit. If you are getting something for your time, though, then you should stay, and when bad things happen, see #2 above.
  • That's what I am going to do. Thanks for the advice. Please keep my account unbanned, I will come back.

    Did you leave the Telltale's Community?
    You left for your own good.

  • I'm surprised. You're not like the average 12 year-old on the internet. You type with punctuation and correct grammar.

    Amazing, dude.

  • The Walking Dead is a +18 rated game (+21 in some countries). So did you illegally buy the game with your parents credit card or did you just watch pewdiepie play it?

    I agree. You seem very mature for someone your age.
    Some people are just assholes. I've encountered some myself.
    Anyone who says or does something that is not considered usual is attacked for the same reason homosexuality is: "it's not natural".
    You know all those people who say humans fear what they don't understand? Well their fucking right. We're a fucked up race.
    Some people downvote or insult you because their trolls. Others because their whiney bitches. Give it a bit more time, and you'll find some people you can get along with.

    Another thing might be that people will think you are immature because of your age. After a while, they'll see that you're not.

    Also, you have more likes than comments, which is a good sign :)

    k, but why are children playing a 18+ game?

  • That's what will happen, then? Removing the downvotes? Why not get rid of the "vote" feature completely?

    I understand that it is getting removed because it is abused too much by the many users, and that this supposedly stops people from voicing their opinions, but does that mean that "upvote" feature will remain? The forums worked pretty well back in the day without these two features altogether. Removing one and leaving another would be, IMO, unfair.

  • "Leaving this forum"? What can I say?

    Oh, yes, "Bon voyage!".

  • Game laws can vary depending on the country. A game such as COD (which is 17+ in the US) is 15+ in Australia. His country may have different laws, or maybe his parents decided he was responsible enough to play it. I played Saints Row 2 at 10 years old, and I'm fine.

  • I know TWD is a 18+ game but my parents know that I can resist violence and swear words. You are not my dad. You are not my mom. So it's not up to you to decide which game I should play.

  • I got the game myself. I would never authorize such act like using my parents credit card. And I can resist head bashes, swear words, blood and anything else.

  • Then don't expect other users to treat you special because you're 'just a kid'.

  • They insult you because you annoy people with your "I like pewds", no one cares what you like, by saying that you act very childish, it seems that you are like "begging" attention by it. Also, what do you expect ? It is the internet where you can find any kind of idiots. You can also insult people even by only being a kid on a +18 game, that you can't argue. And if you are leaving then leave, the internet is not a good place, but if you are staying then get used of being insulted. I am 15 but I never get in any childish situations like most of others.

    "People are so mean!". People on the Internet are mean, I don't know what did you expect. Rainbows and friendship and magic?

    People can be douchebags, and treat your opinion unfairly, but if your opinion might be stupid, what do you expect?

    "Maybe you could have a little respect for children here." Okay, this requires two points to be addressed.

    1. Respect is something you earn gradually, and on the Internet it's not something you should expect to be mandatory.

    2. Just because you're a kid doesn't mean you should be treated with respect. Respect, as I said, is something you earn gradually. People don't care about your age as long as you act properly.

    Overall, if you're planning to leave just because "People around here are mean to me! A 12-year old kid!", then leave. Internet is a dangerous place for people like you.

  • No. I am sorry if you got it the other way, It is disturbing that they swear as much as they can to little children. I don't try to get attention.
