I have facebook, but I'd be embaressed to advertise it that much, sorry. It looks like such a little kids game by the cover, which is why it doesn't sell as well as it should.

That's why the game didn't sell as well as one might hope. It's too cartoonish on the cover. It looks like Backyard Baseball which sucked.

I know that, but I didn't say the majority of the population knows that. In fact, most people would rather buy something that looks regular for a sports game, because, well... sports are very real.

My age is an irrelevant factor in this equation. I'd appreciate it if you don't ask personal questions, especially since you are over the age of majority.

And no, I'm not worried about age. I still pick up and play Pokemon games frequently, along with other anime-based role-playing games.

Seriously though, while I agree the dark horse developer can come out with a good game, more often than not, the game sucks.

The age of majority in the United States is 18. You are over 18. That's what I meant by you're over the age of majority. And my age doesn't say anything. I could be five -- a super genius -- for all you know on the Interweb.

Just to make a point, age isn't personal information and it is impossible to determine who or where you are by age. My guess by your answer is that your a minor, and I'd be surprised if your not at least 10 (and I don't want to type that much). So let me show you how many 11 year-olds through 17 year-olds there are.
If you are 10, 11, 12, 13, or 14, there are 2104039 people who are the same age as you. If you are 15-19, on average there are 2078201 who are the same age as you. That's in the U.S. alone. I wouldn't say you're revealing much by your age at all. Nothing wrong with being safe, but I thought you might have wanted to know.

No, there is something wrong with revealing your age.

Some pedophiles who are locked up and/or free, target their victims based on their age. Besides, if you get into the habit of answering every question that you are asked, you are eventually going to answer the wrong question and face the consequences. I'd rather not tell somebody how old I am and let them stalk me thinking I'm easy prey. With technology alone, all he would have to do is lure me into an MSN/AIM chat or a site of his, and he could get my IP address. With my IP, he could trace it and see what general area I live in, IE what town.

Honestly... Do we really need to be talking about age and whether it's right to say it or not...


I'm 18. I'm not to worried about some pedophile getting me. Especially beacause I'm going to be travelling alot now.

I think personally that it's your preference whether you should give out your age. I feel if you are young (below 16) don't give out your age.


But seriously... Let's try to stay somewhere remotely on topic?

We have to be patient. Drowning their inboxes with e-mails will not help. I know almost everybody says this, but I have a theory: The more e-mails we send them, chances are the less likely it will come out. So we have to be patient, and just plain old wait.

How would that affect it.
