Not a child friendly environment, is it?

Well this is the internet and to think your going to find child friendly envirnment anywhere out here is not lodgical thinking. If your reporting folks for cussing then your going to have to report almost everyone. Your options to shield your child are in
the xbox and you should have learned alll child safty fetures before playing in front of your kids. Their responcibility is yours, not ours. I respect what your saying but young kids have the worst mouths on the internet. Internet safty is only the parents
probleem. Besides, most war games are rated 17+ so again I wonder if your being a responcible gamer around your kid.. you only report folks for threats & nudity, not simple cussing. Again I mean you no disrespect, I actually like that you want your child to
not become one of those smart mouths types that we've all wanted to take a belt to, but unfortunately sometimes the more you try to control kids, the more likely they are to rebel and turn into one of those out here running their mouth cussin and calling everyone
***. Again check your child safty settings.

 

I've never expected the Internet to be child friendly, but there are places on the internet that are expected to be a little friendlier than others. And given the Code of Conduce, xbox live is one of those places that I've held to a slightly higher standard.
(And up to this point, I'd rarely had a problem with online gaming.)

The original reason for this thread was because the behavior in this game seems much worse than in many of the other games that I play online (the L4D series, the CoD series, the Halo series, and other similar games.) While there is some irresponsible,
unsportsmanlike behavior coming from gamers in those games, it is a very small minority (At least in my experiences.) The difference, and the reason I started this thread was because I was seeing MUCH more of that kind of behavior in this game.

I'm not one of those parents that need to filter out everything my kids see. I dont freak out when they hear a bad word, or see something that may not be entirely appropriate for their age (A little nudity or a moment of graphic violence). I see those
things as a teaching tools to hopefully teach my kids to be better people some day. Myself, I went through a bad patch when I was a teenager and did some pretty terrible things, and said some pretty cruel and insensitive things along the way, and while I'm
not going to shelter then from the realities of the world around them, I DO want to teach them to be better people than I was.

I play all of my T and M rated games without the kids around so I know what kind of subject matter is involved and if its something that I feel is ok for them before I even consider putting them in while they are awake.

In all honesty, I cant think of a single Teen rated game other than World of Tanks that I feel the need to filter around my kids. And I find that even a few of my M rated games are ok in capture-the-flag or deathmatch modes just because the players are
so decent.

It just seems to me that since World of Tanks is a Teen rated game, and the Code of Conduct calls for a little judgement in the language people use, that there would be a little more effort on the part of the players to watch their language and be a little
more sportsmanlike is all.

 

I admit I do drop some foul lingo, but Its normally about what I did wrong over what my team did. I have noticed though your teammates, are not very friendly or helpful 85% of the time, so I find myself in a party with some friends or even alone sometimes
to avoid the game chat.

I can say I treat a Teen rated game the same as a M rated game when I play, I never really take into account of children playing games, but I also tend to stay around a more adult sided co-op type games over competitive, this and Minecraft being about the
only non M games I play often.

I have to admit I wish people would be more polite in games, I just accept the fact that on the 360 or well any console its nearly impossible to find a good teamwork game, if you can try moving to the PC side of gaming people can be just as rude, but the
majority of my experience has been positive or helpful teammates.

 

I can't stand the foul mouthed talk that goes on in this game. I simply plug in my head set, let it hang off the lamp stand with the mute button on and the volume clear off. I can still hear the game sounds through the tv. It's bad enough to hear adults
profane idiocracy's, but intollerable when it's a young pup. WOT is a fun game and they do need to start policing the foul mouths and ban them from the game, maybe give them their own site and call it world of foul mouthed idiots.

 

Mute! i dont listen to anyone in this game,i just mute and play the way i want to.F#$% what other people have to say.Also, if parents would pay attention to what their kids were playing then we wouldn't be having this conversation.Its sad that some have
to degrade others to feel better about themselves but for the rest of us that like a lil s&^t talk , we shouldn't have to curb our language because some parent isn't watching their kid play games not rated for them.If you dont like the language then mute it,simple
as that! Now quit whining ..stfu and play the game
