Its a huge problem, omg wake up, OMG OMG/. is MIA!!! What do I do? OMG OMG
*runs around like a chicken with its head cut off*

Yes, we can read, thank you. And not always does age apply in this factor, I hope your not stating that Im young and naive, because of anything, I quite seriously take my sons welfare into high consideration toward anything in his life, including gaming. Who are you to judge, should we from now own post our age along with our thoughts on/. Are you Mr./. get off the age kick and try to pay attention here.
1- the list does not contain many games which others (have read) do think apply to 'violent games', maybe you should pay attention more in previous threads meaning this subject.
2- Again, we read the article, but just like any other thread on/. sometimes things that are relevent to the article w/o being in the article are discuessed, last time I checked, this was allowed as long as its still relevent. It seems anytime someone post anything above your head, you go off on people for posting their own thoughts and actions towards a subject. Maybe you should have stop and read first before posting yourself and trying to censor others.
3- This is a subject for *anyone* concerned, not just parents buy these games, and you are stupid for typing teh in something you wish to state is just for one sided set of individuals, you just censored the others that buy things (did you miss Black Friday or something?? my fiance bought things for my son, hes not a direct parent, check your studies my friend). This list is one way, yes, but if we had a list of the top 100, it would be alot better, as well, again, not only parents purchase things for kids, ever got a gift from a non-parent family member, friend, etc? Yea, thought so.
4- I do not condem this list, I ask that it be more accurate, and have more than 10 things on it (re-read this post again if you cant figure that out). If I sat down and wrote up a list of games I do not want my kid to play, it would be well over 20, until the proper age which I see fit he could understand the concept of the game, along with anything else that came his way during the time of playing. Top 10 isnt shit when your raising a child, you want the most information that is possibly available, as well, you will research this ordeal well before you attempt to have your child play one of these games.
Thinking of a 100 top list, anyone that wishes to contribute email dla_at_pengi_dot_org
5- Responding to/. post' like your own when its almost 7am and Im sick and full of Rx' is a bad idea, but I hope you get the point (re-read it a third time if you must). Maybe if you didnt reply so negative to others before reading, I wouldnt frown upon you so much, but also if you didnt think like a mentally subliminal person, I wouldnt have to set you straight either. Good day.
If you can do the latter of that part, let the rest of us know. I dont have any problems gaming with my son when hes older, but right now, he just likes to play ps2 (like need for speed) and crash into things......I dont think I will be teaching him to drive, his dad can do that. lol:) Good post, I'd mod, but I cant.:(
That would be cool, and we could take citizen arrest into citizen kicks the shit out of shitty parents into affect.:D Good thoughts, too bad I cant mod you here though.
I did not invade your opinon, but since your on the subject....Im sure I would disagree with you in public, if you didnt post as an Anonymous Coward.:)
If they actually went out of their way, we would not be having this talk now would we? I dont think certain games above should be ban thats a whole nother deal, what Im saying is that my child, will not play a game that I have not personaly played myself. His father is the same way. We both game, and my sons around alot of geeks, you know when you see that parental advisory, yeah thats me checking out what my son does and doesnt do, so I know whats going on in his life. Its really shitty when parents just plop their kids in front of a TV or a game to play the babysitter, thats not a parent, thats a lazy peice of shit human who shouldnt have children if their not actually going to tend to their needs and stability as a growing person, along with everything else involved.
Heres the thing, the programmers design the games, with corp. help at hand (they should rate them), the manufacturers make the games (check and make sure its something you want to actually sell before everything goes all 'we gotta ban this NOW' deal), the stores carry the games (why not own up and decide if its something you really want to invest time in to sell before everyone gets all pissed b/c its rated incorrectly, or a parent that doesnt pay attention to their childs life goes and blows something up), and the parents try and do some research before they just grab something off the shelf to buy for their kid when more than likely, their only buying the game to shut the kid up and hope hes happy and wouldnt do anything bad.
I grew up around alot of games, and I turned out pretty damn good, I still love to blow shit up (gaming, not like a real building or anything), maybe if we all just took abit more time to pay attention we wouldnt have such a problem now would we.
If they had specifics, Im sure alot more people would be less annoyed. I dont see why its such a hassle that you hire someone to play a game, see whats there, and rate it. It just seems that too many are making a mountain out of a mole hill.
lol I never got the blinking screen, but you remember all the times you had to blow the dust outta them damn systems?:D I think many people (pending their enviroment) heard all those words before the games came out, but you know, not everyone grows up to use them. I have an excuse, my dad was a trucker and my mom cursed more than a sailor.:) I still get mad playing CS Condtion Zero and throw afew choice words out there, the best one is fuc*ing argghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Were your sentences always alphabetical?
It was a random so called list made by the people that wish to censor more things in our lives Im sure. The list more than likely had no real research done or not (otherwise many others game that come to mind, would be on it). Maybe it was a slow news day.:)
I really get tired of reading about games that I should not allow my son to purchase (not that he can just yet, hes turning 4 soon but still), if you are a parent and stupid enough to let your child play a game that you even for a moment have to think and sit down and read the box, then I really dont care that your child is outside being evil and trying to blow shit up its your own damn fault. The parents need to mod more and pay attention, I dont need a list to know my son will not be playing anything listed (or how about UT, CS Condition Zero, Call of duty, etc/etc/etc). For someone that is going to buy a game and not read it, your stupid, thee end! Now go get me some of those games.
Congrats b3x, Happy Turkey day too all, but wtf about the Mothers?
I have gotten a new HD each year cept one since my son's been born (02), its a nice gift, but I think this coming year, I want something differant.:)
You dont talk about it to the non-geeks, unless you want to see someone sitting in a state of confusion. Sometimes thats fun though.:D I cant handle the people that ask me if Im a geek or not, or what happens when they find out me and worse half are both geeks, just need to leave me alone and let me get back to some gaming.:)
Now Im gonna have to obey the speed limit and stuff in my homestate:)
Seriously, I wish they could come up with something with all the police/etc people that use cell phones while on the job, they drive the worst!
Hi, Im spx, I game, no Im not single, but what do you play?:D
Its funny on my side being a girl that games and see someone thats shocked I exist, just accept that I game for the same reason you do, to kill things, and my gender is really irrelavant to my gaming habits. Cheers.
Cause Im really a girl and I dont exist.
Seriously, this is the dumbest I have read on/. so far and that includes most all M$ articles. The girl is being a cop out, and just wants some attention. So yes, some of us game and some of us play with computers in our spare time, and wow, some of us even read/.
Personaly, I dont like attention wh0res or wannabe in the spotlight's. I grew up as a tomboy and Im pretty sure if this were someone I knew irl, her face would be smashed in.
Sorry such a voilent post, but then again 'Im a girl and I dont exist', so dont mind that its 4am and I cant sleep or that Im a mean german, just stop reading now.
Never underestimate what a person will do with anothers mail.
I once dated a jerk and later found out (I was receiving no bills from my mothers funeral that took place in Aug 00) by calling the local post office that someone randomly changed my infomation by filling out a card stating they were family and marked me as being deceased. Now, I think back to this and wonder if it was just a grudge of a bad breakup or this ex actually wanted to run my name into the mud b/c he was bored. The post office after many attempts to make sure I really was me, asked why I had someone do this, and I explained the rude calls that happened daily, along with the loving way this person had dropped all information known on me on the chat boards, and explained to them I already had a federal issue against said person, so they asked 'are you really dead' and 'what is your last address', I replied back with 'no and Im standing in the living room of said home'. After about 45 minutes on the phone, the person kindly replied with 'now you have another federal issue against this person I hope they leave you alone'.......needless to say, after the 2nd federal warning, the person stopped. I told the post office that one should be having to show proof before accepted that 'someone died', how fucked is that, it was my moms that passed, and he completly screwed me over during the first two months she was gone. Im sure she went back to haunt him though, good ole mom.:) Once in awhile he will randomly catch me online and harrass me then, but swaps IP's too quick to track, so I have an ignore button and use it when needed.
If you need an answer to that, you dont know how to use google and lookup all the bad things that have already happened.
I used to work for an information broker, most of all my work was done online.
By providing a name and recent address, I found leins, old adresses, phone numbers, bank account information. If left in the wrong hands many many bad things can happen.
Arizona does that for drivers licenses, and I told them I will move out of their state before I allowed it, so lucky for them I stuck around abit after they issued be a 'State ID #', which isnt much worse, its still abunch more #s I have to remember.
I have never read something so conflicted, but was was I to expect during the time of Samhain....
How about this, send the kids off to school year round, one month off during Feb the shortest of them all.
Teach a religion/spiritual course on all religions (just like college), let the kids make up their own minds, and if we are all wrong in the end, then I guess we are all screwed. For the part about everyone here jumping on 'the Chrtistains', let me be brief in saying that just about every person I know that is madly religious (which I do not condem mind you) states they are 'Christian', not catholic or baptist, or prespeterian (spelling Im tired...), but just 'Christian'. This is an evil subject to attempt. We are here and now, just live with it, dont worry or fight about how we got here, stop wasting your time while you are here and go enjoy life!:)
I agree that people should back their word of something reasonable - that makes sense *real sense*, which explains why the above used a qoute with REINDEER as the subject (good point made, but use a better qoute and get better responses next time).

They dont fly man, do you still believe in Santa too?
I hit him with my car tonight...
I have from shear boredem, played around with alot of linux. Slack, Mandrake, Gentoo....for stupid reasons I guess I have avoided some (Redhat, BSD), but Im sure in the future I will give them all a shot. I went thru windows and became tired of the updates, and the hassle that comes with it. For most of it, I used windows b/c it (most of the time) would get the job done that I needed, if I email correspond with someone regarding a work project or when I used to find missing people (the software did not allow for non-windows os). More than likely in the next few months I will be fixing my nix box now (vid card died) and begin to actually learn something worthwhile. My fiance is a IT Director, and even if its just around the house or for a home base business in the future I might want to try my hands at networking and more.
If they really want to listen in on me, I think the most they will get is a conversation with myself and my three year old son, sometimes it goes:
Him: What you doing (all hevey accent like hes italian)
Me: Nuffin, just listening to you be silly
Him: Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
He also adds the random 'PUNKHEAD', so Im sure thats fitting here haha
If they really want to waste their time and my money, then go for it, I have no issues with the goverment thats been shitty since I learned what it was, how crude they do their bidding and two faced all the politicians that keep fucking up more and more (as well as the rest), to become deaf from my son just like I soon shall be.
