Hate Against Kids (Rant)
Hello I am a [u]13 year old[/u] gamer and I play [b]Destiny[/b]. When I join someone or go on [b]raids [/b]I am Called "[i]Squeaker[/i]".
I am apparently someone to laugh at and abuse for being [u]2 years[/u] younger then another person. About 1 in 15 people are nice and don't care. When I need help with a Raid I invite people and ask people for help, then I am abused because I am [u]13 [/u]and have a voice that is kind of high.
I play with[u] 6-9 year old's[/u] if they need help... most other people just bully them and ruin the experience of Communication on this awesome [b]MMO[/b]. I love [b]Destiny [/b]it is fascinating and enjoyable... but about [b]70%[/b] of the community are bullies towards "Little Kids". If you don't want to play with someone because they have a voice that you absolutely can't stand, don't be a Bully just say "Sorry I really don't want to do this... I want to do other things" as appose to hurting feelings and being a dick.
You were a kid once whats wrong with it?
If they are screaming in the microphone and being really Annoying then give them a chance tell them your gonna kick them if they keep going, then if they keep going don't retaliate just be chill and say "Hey you had your warning... sorry your being kicked".
The thread is about people being bullies after they say a few words in a high voice. Also if they try to be funny don't laugh and say that wasn't really that funny try something else. About 4 years ago I got Xbox with COD and I did these things to so I can understand why people gave them this reputation. I feel it should be changed a little bit. Fighting fire with fire never works out it's just a waste of time.
If this is changed I would think [b]Destiny [/b]would be more inviting and people under [u]14 [/u] would enjoy it a lot more!
Also shut up about ratings. Look at the movies people sneak in all the time your not gonna stop anything.
In Australia you are allowed to play it so you can't say crap about kids from Aussie. Think of something without involving ratings or do you need to rely on them?
[spoiler]Australia has different spelling and grammar and I am 13 get off my case.[/spoiler]

I would totally raid with you if you're on 360. I was a squeaker once too, and I know the feeling. A lot of people that play this game are older teenagers, who love to use age as the ultimate measurement of experience. Most of them also have a Napoleon complex (they like to pick on those weaker because it's easy) that's even easier to hold onto because of online anonymity. The solution? Just hit ignore, block, whatever and try to find someone that's nice. If you can't find a set group of friends or someone nice, then try LFG and do your best to act mature around people you meet for the first time, and talk quietly. It's alright to make jokes around people now and again, and get loud and excited, but if you can tell people are getting annoyed by your voice then just mute yourself (or don't talk) and just listen and follow instructions. Even the assholes just want to get through the raid, and if you're a worthwhile player, your skill will speak for itself, and you won't need to talk. People want people to play, not to talk to. I went through the same struggle about 6-7 years ago, trying to find someone to play Halo 3 with when my voice was cracking all the time. Hell, I'm even stuck with the gamertag I made almost 9 years ago that makes me look like a 13 year old. Just know that it gets better and there's always 5 nice people out there somewhere willing to play, all you gotta do is find em.
