Good.

BBB3 29 March 2015 06:56 PM

I can't wait - hopefully this will happen and I can play online properly :)

ALi-B 29 March 2015 07:41 PM

LOL....suddenly they are being called "children" again instead of "young people"

When will the liberal-minded make up their minds :lol1:

stevebt 29 March 2015 08:12 PM

Everything now seems to be about covering your ass, if you report the parents it can't come back to haunt you in years to come when a scandal of some form comes out and they are blaming everyone :D

I'm all for it, maybe I won't get handed my own ar$e on a plate from them with they're lightning fast reflexes anymore then. :)

I watched Robocop when I was 5. Am I in trouble?
:D

An0n0m0us 29 March 2015 09:22 PM

I completely agree with this and glad someone has finally taken a stance against it. This is for protecting primary school age children and I really don't care how any parent tries to justify it there is absolutely no way that children aged 11 years or under should be playing COD or GTA :nono:

What would Clarkson's think?

Miniman 29 March 2015 09:35 PM

Yes they will do and there are lots of other games they love playing. It's only a "fashion" game anyway.

No but your parents are.

If parents would actually do some parenting this problem would not exist!

It's a pity that they didn't teach you proper English though! ;)

Surely the problem is that kids are parents to kids? :wonder:

Virtually every kid is playing "Call of duty" so are you saying they are all bad parents? I would bet £1000 your friends kids are all playing the game so that must mean they are all bad parents :)

So are you saying that a parent who lets their child play a game that has been officially rated for over 18s is a good parent? What if they let them watch porn rated for over 18s? Good parent? I don't think so!

RA Dunk 29 March 2015 10:33 PM

Chris is actually right, if a game has a age restriction applied to it it's up to the parents to enforce it legally TBH...

I'm saying I bet £1000 that your mates kids are playing COD! Which means your saying your friends are ad parents. I will even give you odds of 10/1 if you want to take my bet!


Parents buy a game because that's what they know is popular and what they know the kids will want! Comparing to porn is a bit pathetic? why not say they must be supplying alcohol as well!

I bet my friends' kids could well be playing COD seeing as the only kids my friends have are over 18. :lol1:

Why is the comparison to porn pathetic? Both officially rated as 18 or over. Why is allowing them to play CoD OK and yet allowing them to watch porn not OK?

Here is a weird example! "Dad I'm going to star in a porn film" or "Dad I'm going to star in the Call of Duty game"




Yeah they both sound the same to me :D

Are you being deliberately silly? The example would be this "Dad I'm going to play Call of Duty or Dad I'm going to watch Amateur Sluts 4. You are saying the former is OK whereas the latter is not. Both are rated officially as 18 or over. What I am asking you is why is one acceptable and the other isn't?

An0n0m0us 29 March 2015 11:10 PM

So do you think any age is fine to play COD/GTA? You see nothing wrong with a 5 year old playing these games?

Personally I think it's pathetic of any parent to let primary school age children to play these games and they should try being better parents instead of putting their kids in front of such material.

I agree with F1_Fan and I also think Call Of Duty should 21 and over never mind the sex in it what about the glorification of crime and violence no wonder society is fooked!:(
