"The tongue, like a sharp knife, kills without drawing blood."
Siddhartha Guatama

My real age is 26,but on b.net I act my age.every once in awhile the kid in me takes over and I may get just a bit immature, but I try and help when I can, I will listen if anyone needs to talk. I dont argue pointless arguments unless you are my husband for I will argue with him all day over stupid stuff. I have a 3 year old so when I COME ON HERE i TRY AND GET AWAY FRom, sorry immaturity.So i would say probaly aout my age in real life.

How does one actually measure maturity? Is it based off of how we expect people to act at that specific age? Does the average person actually act as we expect them to? If there is no average, how can we have a so-called "age" for maturity? Is there supposed to be a difference between certain ages? If there is no expected maturity difference between 40 and 50, is a 50 year old man immature because he is as mature as a 40 year old?

I do not care what number I am assigned. If I am mature, I am mature, and that is all that truly matters.
I think Mabian's having a mid-life crisis... =P


When you're tired, your mind trails off to a somewhat hypnogogic state. When I'm tired, my mind trails off into a philosophical world.

When I'm not tired, my meanings are pretty much clear cut. When I need to sleep, understanding what I truly mean is as difficult as trying to understand how the Bungie games are connected.

Translation #1: I am way too young to be having my mid-life crisis. But if I was having my crisis right now, it would give me a lot more time to enjoy my years...

Translation #2: It's a bad idea to talk to me late at night.

Are you talking about maturity or age? (as in, human years vs. dog years = human years vs. bungie years).

Either way, I'm 16. If you were measuring maturity, I'm 16. If you were measuring amount of years, I'm 16. If you were just asking my real age, I'm 16.

-TGP-

LOL You leave some holes in your story. If you are 16 then why aren't you in school all day? If you are 16 why don't you whine like the rest of the 16 year olds around here? If you are 16 how come you can spell correctly? I for one cannot believe you :)


At school? I do believe he is a bungie moderator and everyone knows they get chained to there desk. Dont be stupid.

He's australian thats why he doesn't whine.

The one thing that bungie teaches it's moderators is spelling and grammar.

So there ya have it.

Chained to desk, he's australian, knows spelling and grammar.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

Im 17 so ill act 17.

No more, no less.

Bungie teach their moderators? I'm pretty sure he was taught comma rules, nouns, pro nouns, adjectives, adverbs, and the other sentence structures from his English teacher. The only Bungie.net moderator that is a member of their staff team is Shishka. Now, about this maturity discussion. I happen to know a twelve-year-old on b.net that acts like they are over twenty. I am only 16, but I've been told that I act very mature for my age. On the other hand, I've seen older people on this site that act like immature poo heads.

I think any number you assign to yourself in a thread like this is meaningless - it all has to do with how others perceive you. Someone that doesn't act like an idiot and spells things properly will probably be perceived as more mature. On the other hand, someone that can't stay on topic and posts things like "OMFG, TEH H4X0RZ BROK3 TEH HALO! WTFX0RZ?!?!?!!!!!!111!!11oneoneoneonewon" will be perceived as 8 years old.

I'm 26, btw.

The old will strike young, and the young will strike old.

Yeah... that makes sense.
<_<

OMGConfuscious!!!1!

And my maturity level is about 12, prepubescent, confused, high pitched and arrogant.

If you're 12, then what's flamechu? Hate to ask. X |

As for myself, I'm not sure. I try my best to act 18-22, but I always manage to let my anger get the best of me, which in turn makes my b.net age closer to 12 than 22.

Is it possible to go negative? Stillborn perhaps, I'm not sure.

In reality though, I dont try to act a particular age on the forums, I just try to make my post get my point across and make my opposition's arguments seem less credible than mine. Is there a particular age bracket for that?

Is Frasier an age bracket?

You can be twelve years old and act as mature as you want, but you're still acting as a twelve year old.
You can be twenty six and act like a total jerk, but you're still acting like a twenty six year old.
Maturity can't be measured in numbers, either you're it or not.

Youth is wasted on the young. Wisdom wasted on the old.

Moi. I see absolutely no point in taking the fun out of life. So I could quite easily sit you down, turn you over and happily make out with the mole on your butt.

Asking people to determine their own maturity is plain foolishness. Something that I don't necessarily condone.
Lightheartedness is the way to live life. Too much is lost in cynicism and stubborness.

Besides maturity is only a derivitive of social intelligence. And we wouldn't want to be elitist about that now would we?

So who is first?

I have only one statement or question, depending on your view, in response to that.

Huh?
