i'd suggest posting rights should be provided on an age rated basis, sadly its hard to assess the mental age accuractly on purchase

(though based on alot of my posts i'd not support it being based on spelling ability)

Age is not a determining factor in maturity, unfortunately. I know of many people on the Ranger forums who are under 20 and are more mature than some of the people on other forums who are in their 40's.

A better system of removing people from posting would be the best thing. 3 strikes, you're out, essentially. 1 strike= banned for a month, 2nd= 3 months, 3rd= banned for life.

seems simpler and it would likely make people who really enjoy playing this game think twice before flaming and insulting.

Hmm I have a 38yr old friend that doesn't have a bank account so he pays via game cards. He is also one of the oldest players on Valcyn and is well respected. So pls do not stereotype all game card users thinking they are children.

This should get some interesting responses and will further my point.

In order to haverights to post (only post not read) you must have registered with SOE and have the original credit card(with the3 security numbers) at time of registration. If you purchased a game card to play you will have norights to post on the forums. This will eliminate the kids from throwing temper tantrums in a public domain.If Some of the things that are written in these forums were said to a person while in conversation it would cause real life problems. If some accountability was placed (on some) of the people who posted people would be more considerate and less obnoxious. This would not stop all the undesirable behavior but would reduce it. I can not believe that these ruderesponses are fans of Star Wars but kids who should be doing their homework. I don't agree with everything in this game, But that is what it is a game. I really wish we would put this much energy into forums that politician read and try to change things in the real world. Imagine if everyone sent 1 email to a politician for every one post. Then you would see real change.

I think I have said enough

As stupid ideas go, this is pretty stupid

Credit cards have expiration dates where your bank will issue you with a new one. I have played since launch, and beta tested it for months prior to that. My bank sent me a new credit card a few months back with an increased security chip built into it... the 3 'security' numbers on the back changed too, so you're saying i should have no rights to post on the forums?

If I donate blood, can I get a voucher for a free SWG game card?

Seriously, how can a person honestly equate someone's payment plan with their temperament?

Anderman, just learn to laugh at the rants, ponderthe wisdom, and embrace the silliness.

Besides, it's all fun and games to someone loses an eye, anyway.
