how about a age seperation for gw2 like for example 8-17 seperated from 18 and up done by account information. it sure would solve alotta headaches for players in the mature crowds.
and i know they wont do it for gw1 cause they are changeing enough things already unless they find time for it. but it would be great for gw2 at least.
i'm sure this post is going to get flamed by lil kids but everyone has their say at least.
if you support the idea just put: /signed
and if you oppose the idea just put: /unsigned
please no flaming
this is a legitimate idea.

It is possible but highly unlikely they would do it. Your best bet is still to simply kick out all immature people from your guild. Besides, immaturity is not linked to age, I've seen some 12yo behave better than some 30+ yo.

What about people who want to play together? You need to elaborate your idea (age districts, completely separate servers, what exactly?)
Anyhow, most of childish behavior i have seen was from 18+ people. You might be suprised by behaviour of those 18+ people in your seaprated world

You have to be 13 to play and 18 years old to own an account. Also ignore list is pretty good for those annoying folks.

there's no way to actually check the age of a person anyway, so what use would it have ?

We have a lot of mature people in our allaince and even more youngsters.
And it wouldnt be half the fun when they would be separated.
Sure there are youngsters that have problems with there ego and behaviors.
And yes there are lots of mature with the same problems...
Its a game,,,,,,,, its intended to be like this

I think you, and probably everyone else would rather have no immature people, that wouldn't be fixed by setting some sort of age limit (Since there's 25 year olds who act like they're 12, and 12 year olds who act like they're 25) That would be nice if they got rid of all the morons, but impossible.

1. A person's age doesn't always reflect their true maturity level.
2. Many people lie about their age when registering their accounts
3. Many parents establish accounts for their kids to play on.

I have friends of ages between 13 and 60 in the game.
And they are not immature at all.

I've examined the behavior of people ingame and real life and come to a conclusion: maturity is NOT linked to age. Indeed a lot of the people I highly dislike just so happen to be adults.

As a lot of people has stated, age does not mean maturity (unless you're talking of the sexual kind, but that's neither here nor there). Also, it would be considered discrimination based off age, which is not right. I've a few friends who are, er, young, and they do act more mature than people I've seen here, including myself. So, as a lot of people before me, have done, I disagree to this, seeing as how (1) it's age discrimination, and (2) it wouldn't be fair to those who are actually mature.
But don't get me wrong: I can understand where the original poster is coming from; it's kind of difficult to enjoy a game when a bunch of immature animals bog down the Local chat when you're actually trying to have fun or enjoy a conversation.

I like acting like i'm 12... when I really am not. Then when I want to be taken serious I act serious. It would never work. You would have kids changing the age so they can play with "teh big kids"
Maturity can be in young kids. Its just not there right now.

All you need to do is create a persistent world and then split the servers to two categories.
Free for all PvP.
Structured PvP. (PvE Server)
In FFA PvP you can attack anyone, anywhere.
In Structured, you have basically same as now - arenas and such.
Thus the immature people will leave of their own volition, and go to the Free For All PvP servers. Mature players can remain in Structured PvP and be mostly free of immature players.

Reason: Age =/= maturity(behavior wise). And yes it is age discrimination. There are quite a few kids that are more mature than the adults on this server. Yes there are kids that are complete a**holes, but there are those that are actually mature. Same with adults, there are those that are complete a**holes, and then there are those that actually act mature.
But also there are those times where you just kind of want to have fun, loosen up a little bit and have some fun.
BTW there is an ignore list, while it's only limited to 10 people which should be more. Also you can turn off all chat.
Just like the highly intelligent conversations in Fort Aspenwood at night.

I don't honestly see a relative point to it, other than getting rid of the kids dumb enough to put their age below 18.

First there is no way to do this.
Anyone can enter there age as 18+ or 17-
Second I have people in my guild that are under 18 and they are more mature than half the adults in GW.
Just bad idea

1:bad idea. ( maturity dose not come with age )
2:not possible. ( nothing stops anyone from saying they are older then they are )
there is an easy way... get in an 18+ guild and only do stuff with them and old friends. there, your happy and there was no impact on the people that can deal with the fact that a large percentage of most games player bases are young kids or jackasses. (no, they are not always the same people)

1. Age verification has NEVER EVER worked and usually makes things worse. An example...BEER perhaps. People lie about their age when its forbidden.
2. Even if there was, GW has very little people to work with, I think under 100,000 or something on at a time, and thats a generous amount. This would kill PUGs or worse the adults could be stuck in pretty much empty environments..

Although I understand how immature people completely ruin a game, theres no way to determine a REAL date of birth. You know the 18 and under owuld be empty, kids dont like to be treated like kids, especially if they can live in a fantasy world. That and "what is your DOB?" and you either use your parents DOB as they would have to use their card online to purchase things, or just lie and say you were born in 1970.
I understand why you say this, but in the gaming world, it is something we can not live without.
