I have been kicked from PXRXO. Not from being micless, immature , or disrespectful. Not from being too dumb or bad at the game. Not even from spying or -áharassment. From my age of course. -áSo I'm saying goodbye, as a former corp member.-áNow I have to find a new corp that will accept me, and start a new beginning. I hope you will remember some things I did for the corp, such as the tank squad. Maybe you will leave and join me, who knows. But if you stay, I hope it goes well, and be warned you could be kicked any moment for something like age. Or for what Zepa was kicked for, using a tank.-á Nevertheless, Go H.B. and make me proud!-á |

Yeah, we kind of have an age limit going there. That's because we're trying to avoid immature players. We're not saying that you are one. In fact there are even immature adults out there (unfortunately). Just saying that PXRXO has a reputation to uphold. We may not be a well-liked corp (at least according to the forum PR) but at least we try to maintain order within ourselves. So good luck and I hope you have great adventures. |

Come check out Killshot, we care more about maturity than age. Also we have been known to say inapropriate things, so if your sensitive, probobly not the best fit. Our public channel is KXXX, if possible you should try and squad up with Brutus Hawk, he's our youngest player and already a captain. |

That seems a little unfair... I know the recruitment thread specifies that all applicants must be of legal drinking age, but that varies between countries.
And like everybody else has pointed out, psychological maturity is not determined by one's age. Unless it's for legal purposes, I don't think an age requirement is very reasonable. |

Yeah, set whatever rules you like about your membership but if you use a variable like "legal drinking age" as a criteria and don't assign it a value, it's pretty lame to exclude based on that.
Are people from countries where drinking is illegal not allowed in the corp?
Can children from countries without a drinking age join? |

You're contradicting yourself Mak. So he is mature for his age and even more mature than some in your corp, but because of his age you kick him? It sounds like he even helped better your corp by helping to create a tank division?
You're right, PRO does have standards to uphold, being less than mediocre at every phase of this game.
Sorry to hear this General Grodd you seem like a level headed 16yr old. If you still need a corp look into Impswarm for starters, we are always looking for good team players.

Seems a bit of a crappy move really he helps you set up a tank divison then because you find out he's 16 you kick him? What a lovely thanks for him helping you seems like a right kick in the nuts.
Also the whole you can only join if your over legal drinking age means you will accept an 18 year old brit but if a 18 year old american tries to join do you refuse because they cant drink in his home country. Plus if the OP is from England technically you are allowed to drink at 16 but only a pint of cider or mead I believe and only if ordered with a meal.
So in summary you can join if you live in USA if your over 21, UK if your over 18 or over 16 if your a cider drinker is that right PRO what about countries with no drinking age limit will you accept anyone? |

This seems more incindiary than inquisitive, but to put your emotions at rest the reference "legal drinking age" is gauge to the leader and how old he had to drink alcohol legal. I thought this would be commonsense, your remarks seem as a grasp of straws in order to stage an attack, which seems like it might have back fired.
We are trying to stay consistent. We try not to show favoritism. There is really no way to come out of this looking positive. If we let Grodd stay some else that was already kicked for it would post something similar. All you want to do is attack us there for becomibg the reason that you allegedky hate us. |

Now you post this thread and thrust us into an ethical paradox you created. You are acting cordial, but underneath you are holding a grudge tightly, because why else post this publically except to hurt us. This is why kids aren't allowed in. Severance Pay out.. what am I lying about? I'm holding a grudge because I've done alot in ther but then they kick me from age and not consider the good I've done

The whole "the reference "legal drinking age" is gauge to the leader and how old he had to drink alcohol legal. I thought this would be commonsense, your remarks seem as a grasp of straws in order to stage an attack, which seems like it might have back fired." Again not an attack and how is that common sense like I asked before what about countries with different drinking ages that means the requirements vary from country to country is that the case or not?
What I was stating is that with a requirement as vague as you have to be able to drink legally with the various ages in different countries and various loop holes in these laws some one was bound to misunderstand/deliberatley exploit some of those loop holes to get in if anything your CEO should pick an age and stick to it if nothing else to stop someone else from joining "underage" and using the excuse of well I can legally drink in X country.
I do think having age limits is kind of stupid and people should be judged by their actions not their age but again its your policy so good for you I dont particularly care.
Also why be so defensive you claim that I allegedly hate your corp lol I dont really care I dont hate any corps I have played with members from PRO and I have only good things to say about them, Fair enough you get all the "PRO is an NPC corp." Jokes but that doesn't mean everyone on this board hates your corp and when people have a discussion with you turning defensive and claiming anyone who disagrees with your logic hates you is very imature. |

First of all you started off and called our actions "crappy". Sorry, but it felt like you were taking a shot at us and the rest of the post had a similar tone. I would like to call attention that I didn't retaliate, I said you were clearly making an attack that was all. I didn't call you immature or defensive. You did that.

@ Severance Pay. I described the actions by PRO as crappy as it seemed like the guy had helped your corp to get kicked for a non-precise rule I understand he did breach the rules but I was showing sympathy for him.
The last thing I want is for this to degenerate into a pointless mudslinging contest, I guess we will just have to agree to disagree I dont think I was attacking your corp over something so trivial I was merely being facetious but I suppose that doesn't translate well into text I suppose none of this really matters anyway the OP probably has a new clan anyway lol. |

too bad PRO is running strict corp rules, their lack of flexibility will not serve them well in the future. also, this negative PR adds on to the fact that they really don't compare to the better corps, as their large numbers aren't due to their high skill.
planetary conquest will most likely sort them out. |

You guys in Killshot with KDR at or over 2.0, follow order, have fun>> should check into Red*Star. We have age limit of no lower than 16, but if u are mature for your age a director or nanofied (Ceo) can make an exception here or there. Look us up.
Message me Yourdeadagain76 or my alt SaltDog76, Or Sentient Archon (director/recruitment) in game and ill send you our public channel. Or if your whole corp can merge with us, but thats up to the directors or CEO im just giving you guys options.
If you have less than 50 mercs in your corp yu will need help, and it will be hard for you to defend a district. If you dont want to loose your corp by merging then look into joining EON alliance. Look for it on the recruitment threads.

This does not surprise me, especially after what joe did to Zepa, not only did he kick out Zepa but he called him out during a game, made fun of him, put him down for being a tanker and instructed his own team to destroy Zepa at all cost because he was running a tank. The fact that a corp leader would make fun of and put down his corp member is sad and an indication of what went on there. And on top of that, joe and some of the other leaders scoured the internet trying to find Zepa's actual RL information to discredit him. It saddens me that something like this would happen in a game. |

Dude after reading that, thats really ****** up if its true. Honestly this is really bad for public relations for PRO guys. For people to have a Age restriction in the first place is already showing a bad rep but hey some people love to be serious business types of guys and I can understand that. But when stuff like this comes up for making drama on your own members for doing something that a person is free to do is downright stupid.
I'm just saying man, its cool and all to have a age restriction and all but there are some few mature young people out there that are cohesive enough, likewise to myself, to be responsible for their actions and very helpful for the corp/brigade/clan as a whole. I am in that position myself, being in all sorts of clans since I was 14. I spoke out and was helpful to everyone in the group I was in no matter what. Sure I can be a loud crazy ****** but when its time to serious up, I get serious. A lot of people in RND should know that, and being with them for quite sometime now is already making RND a home.
Having an open ended corp is always manageable. Just having to go down and speak with those who want to join isn't a hard thing. Just hearing them out and seeing if they're good and well rounded is good enough for almost any clan. You don't need high quality standards to bring in people of high quality nature. In fact what most top tier players look for most of the time is a open and friendly home to stick with. That sure as hell fits me quite well, honestly. Most high end players just want to lay back and do what they're good at: Play video games. They just want to kick back and rock a few matches with their friends, share a couple of laughs together, build up some friends, play like dolts sometimes; and when the time comes to get serious, they get their act together and get serious for the serious matters needed.
I'm not trying to be hateful or anything against the PRO guys and your standards, even though it may seem like so I really ain't, bringing serious guys into serious clans can end in bad situations and drama, which both can lead to breaking of clans. But if you guys want to stick with your plans then so be it. I ain't gonna say anything after this. |

And like everybody else has pointed out, psychological maturity is not determined by one's age. Unless it's for legal purposes, I don't think an age requirement is very reasonable. I had my first drink when I was 9. Those darn Irish!

Sadly it was true and I wish I had recorded it because it was beyond childish and abusive. I just want to put it out there so others know what is happening and can make their own decisions on what to do.

I can vouch for general grodd being a very good tanker. Hopefully, a corp out there will take him in. I swear, he, like, never loses tanks. I don't know how, or why, but he's very good at knowing exactly when to run away. |
