Mod Suggestion

I'd like to point out that Hawkwing is not part of the hormonally challenged age group.

Also that he does, in fact, seem to be one of the best mods currently residing on this forum. I have not seen him once overstep his bounds or be particularly rude when he need not be.

That's why a comprehension test would work wonders rather than an I.Q. test. Comprehension tests show common sense and an ability to understand situations they may encounter. Anyhow you guys are right the age thing doesn't matter.

Hawkwing is 13. All thirteen year olds are teenagers. Therefore, Hawkwing is a teenager. All teenagers are slaves to their innate teenage hormones. Therefore, Hawkwing is a slave to his innate teenage hormones.

This is a logically valid statement. Unless you wish to argue with the other premises, it means you've been talking bullshit by your own admission.

The fact I made was that teenagers lack experience, and even if they may have a cool head or fair understanding of certain matters, they are all slaves to their innate teenage hormones

That's bullshit HT, unless you take real life 4 srs... like me D:

While your statement is logically valid, it is inaccurate. Since Hawkwing has not gone through puberty, the hormones within him are not strong enough to affect his judgment.

In my original statement, you'll find that I excluded Hawkwing's age from the list. I'll ask you to please stop trying to turn this into a very pointless flame war. You're becoming more and more part of the problem, and not the white knight you're disillusioned to be.

So what if they do? I'm not referring to the people who are clueless, I'm talking about the people who are smart and will manipulate the system; they're the ones you need to watch out for most of all anyhow.

What does Hawkwing have to do with anything? He is a good moderator and that alone is enough to prove all of your arguments wrong. I rest my case.

~Void~, Vega is arguing that teenagers are inherently fight-picking, irresponsible, etc, and Griff is saying they aren't, using Hawkwing as an example.

Seriously guys.


...What the fuck? The mods are doing a damn fine job.

I'm confused as to how Vega's statement about the vast majority of teenagers is being taken by the entire forum as applying to all teenagers. I agree with his statement (in America), that teenagers on the whole are as he describes, but that says nothing about the legitimacy of there existing exceptions.

Besides, what the hell does this have anything to do with anything anymore? Christ, you people suck, you've even got me doing it. Reported.

I don't even know.
