Trying this on the group:
Passions & Goals
Bringing back the “gold for xp” arrangement, but with a twist. Each character can earn extra xp for the gold they spend. Characters will define a goals or passions that they are working for and any money spent on obtaining that end can be converted...
I said "do not be afraid to say no." If you have to follow every request with a "yes, but.." then you missed the point.
A character in a movie/TV show/comic book is designed to entertain the viewer/reader. They do not necessarily make good PCs. Imagine 5 James Bonds all vying for the Bond...
Of course we would like to make it every week, but all of us occasionally miss a week. So the attendance isn't that strict.
We would have no issue with your age. If you would like to try a week just to see if our group is for you let me know and I will message you with the address.

Maybe not mature per se, but older. :D
Honestly, I do not know that my course of action would have been different. No matter how well a product of mine was selling (not that I have any) I would want to go after those who trampled over my copyright rights (?).
On the consumer side of things we rarely understand the cost and effort...
