QFT.. Whenever I remember something crazy I did back in highschool all I can think is 'wtf?'
Yeah, like nemo said: age doesn't imply maturity: but it is the best measurement we have. I look at my nephew now-days (age 14) and I can definitely see how much a person changes in a decade... (I regularly find myself thinking 'was I that immature?')
Oh yeah, maybe I should iterate that assumptions are dangerous.

I I I ammmmm sssevvvbenty four 74 and id liiiiiiiiike to prrrroootest against flameing mmme for age. Always, when i join a Server, like i joined the Military for Vietnam war, but thats another Story. What was the Topic, oh yes, i get flamed when i join or open a Server. Not only that all Peopl leave it again, before i have finnished the settings, and they ring me. They ring me. Me who could be there Grandfather, at least the Noobs hat Respect when i was young, but today... 
When i have found my glasses and pressed start, it sometimes doesen`t work, but that is again no reason to flame. After ten Minutes i can usualy reach one of my kinship who will fix the Fireballs and the Windows, they also take out the Garbage, so you cant say such evil stuff about all of the useless young Bastards. Were did i stop- oh yes, theTopic.. the Discrimination of AGe.
When i enter the Game, adjusted the Speed to 0.2 - all of these young Assholes leave my Games - all of them. Even in Speedmetall. They have no Patience, they have no Power - they whine about school and stuff in Teamspeak, and they Rage quit when i whine back about the Pain in my Bones..
These must change - or i will stop playing Spring. Maybee forever

Well I agree that most people my age are numnuts, half brains and what not, so the point of the poster is that he targets a large audience of people that play this fun and FREE game, complain about it, and ruin everyone else's fun. I'm 17, and I'll admit most people my age are still at the level of dumbness that they where at the age of 15, and probably will be till they die. My parents are classic people, raised me and my brother right, and such-and-such but each new generation I see come out gets dumber and dumber, and now the internet is available to almost anyone, its natural we run into them on multi-player based games like TA:Spring. There are a few exceptions like me, one of the few intellectuals left on this planet in this generation (I learned C++ when I was 14 and matured when I was 16 with a dose of the real world after I graduated High School), and it annoys me a lot the way kids turn out nowadays, and even more so I have to play with them on a game in my spare time. If anybody is to blame, its the doped up parents of these kids, not the kids themselves (look at George Bush 
) I just think I'm lucky that I can even tell that each new generation is dumber than the last, instead of being one of the lower IQ inbred people that inhabit this Earth millions over and notice nothing. PS Im not trashtalking all lower IQ people, just the ones who give me a headache.

I think alot of people (Myself included) when they were 15 and on the internet they thought they were acting just as mature as others, but despite their best efforts it does show through alot of the time - Especially in the lobby.
To echo many other posts in this thread, No matter how mature you think you are now, in 2 years you'll look back and think "Gosh I really wasnt as clever as I thought I was"

To be fair, however, most 13-15 year olds are idiots. We literate ones are the exception rather than the rule
