[QUOTE="Howling Coyote, post: 2426314, member: 1572"] Around here age isn't really an issue. I run games for a group whose age varies between 15 and early thirties with the average being just above twenty. Although, their styles do vary somewhat their age doesn't seem to be the issue in all cases. Sure the most troublesome cases have been about 17 year old, but we give them a chance, and if they can't seem to adapt we cut them off eventually. Actually, I think that in the end the most troublesome players are those old hardened roleplayers, as the older they get the more childish and harder to control they seem to get. A friend of mine runs regularly games to 30+ players with the oldest being about 60, and while he's the youngest in the bunch he constantly complains that he feels old in that group of "children". Btw, that no RL talk during games is something that I've always wanted to experience, but the sad fact is that around here it will never happen.:( [/QUOTE]
