Mod me down for being somewhat off topic if you'd like, but it's as good a time as ever to bring this up. What is it with/. and the consensus that conservative parenting is the way to go? I played video games all the time, violent ones, at that, yet I came out OK. I always did my homework, always did good in school, and now I'm in college. Hell, I don't even drink or do drugs, which is somewhat of a rarity in college these days. Being a child is hard, and if I didn't have an escape, such as video games, who knows if I would have done as well in school, or if I would have been bored and bitter throughout my classes. I'm sure some of you can relate.
It IS limiting adults from purchasing the game. Most major retailers refuse to carry AO rated games. So not only are you limiting sales to minors, you're also limiting sales to adults.

RotS was fuck?
I'm sure I'm not the only one asking this question, but what exactly IS internet hunting?
