Is there a rule against this, because I know some people on the forum that use it and it is very irritating and insulting to some of us young folk?

no rules against adultism - to be honest, that shouldn't even be an "Ism" because everybody was a kid once in their life.

and usually the people that blatantly show "adultism" is just trying to push your buttons to see what makes you tick. if you're mature about it no one will care but some people tend to lash out.

But I mean I don't even respond to some of the posts and it still ticks me off. These people have no respect for us and look down on us. Thinking that they are better than us. It is insulting to us.

yeah thats basically what i was sayin. Back in high school i was a lot less experienced, but once i hit college it was like BAM insta-maturity.

and sometimes young kids do stuff or say they're gonna do stuff, and older people who have done that and stuff, and know that it's a bad idea, tend to speak up.

I treat people on how they act.
If you happen to act your age, then you are your age and if you have a problem with that talk to God.

Adults are 'better' than you, they just know how stupid young folk are (most of em) and also kick themselves in the ass for being a stupid little 12 year old who thought they knew everything.


But honestly.
Ignore it cause it's the internet.

If you follow that you can survive.

I also tend to pick on people to see how they'll respond. Like my own cute little research tests, in which only 1 person has successfully passed on this forum...

To whoever keeps reporting Epsilon's post, please stop.
***in isn't report worthy.

And adultism isn't that important, since everyone's going to be an adult one day.
That's like, my dad making fun of me for not being as old as him, even though i will be, in some odd years.

Well, I would say the only advice I can come up with is the same as EpsilonX's. :/
Just ignore it.
I do, and I don't have a problem with anyone here. lol
But I do see where you're coming from.

Oh-oh-oh. Can I guess who passed? Was it Kitty? Or Kitey? Or Yuuki? Maybe Steve?

Yup. Ignoring it is the smartest route. Although there isn't really much to ignore........
But now and then, when I'm feeling rather arrogant/obnoxious/bored, taking the bait proves to be the most fulfilling option =D haha

Btw, thanks for reminding me. Better change my age =P

Hmm. Forgot about her =P Yea, most likely. Or he could be making this up to see how we react as part of a test.........

Just remember 2000 years ago if you were 14 you'd be past middle-age.


It's the internet, there are no rules when it comes to picking on people for whatever reason (age,race,religion,console...lol)

Maybe I passed...
Or maybe I was never tested B|

NEVER.

Lol I've never really chatted with Exodyus, sooo I doubt it could have been me. XD
I have a few guesses who it may have been.
Buuut I dunno. ~.~
Anyway, moving on.. xD

That's because you get them over email not a pm.

After reading this all I can see is everyone thinks that all kids are retarded and we will see this when we are 18?

Bingo
Well
Not exactly 18.
Whenever you mature and grow up.
It varies.

I never plan on growing up either, I don't think I should have my life set in the perimeters that society has set it in place just because they think that's how we should live our lives
