I'm fine playing with younger gamers. I have had one really bad experience with "squeakers" before. [spoiler]It was sometime last October. My buddy and I were trying to get a fireteam together to finish the Vault of Glass. I invited someone who was eleven years old. My buddy was pretty skeptical, but I went ahead and convinced him to give the kid a chance. This youngster wanted to invite his thirteen year old cousin. We let him. We finally got our team together and started on our Gatekeepers Checkpoint. We wiped a few times. The two kids would also bicker about who was at fault for the wipe. We finally managed to finish Gatekeepers. We hit a wall at Atheon. Wipe after wipe, the kids did nothing but complain and attempt to blame others for each wipe. Finally, I became annoyed with their griping (my buddy had been annoyed with them). My buddy and I went to Private Chat to discuss the situation. We decided that the two kids needed to find another fireteam. After exiting Private Chat we let them know that it just was not working out. They started whining when they realised that we were going to boot them. My patience was exhausted and I told them that I was there to play a game and relax, not to babysit a couple of spoiled brats. That was that. I gave them the boot. We found a couple of other guys and defeated Atheon.[/spoiler] I'm sure that there are plenty of people that would allow such a loathsome experience to condemn the entire age group. I have not. I'm always willing to give them a chance. I do always hope that they will not be like those two spoiled brats that I had the displeasure of gaming with.
