Was it trout? If it was, I've seen that. If it's not trout, that means there's more pictures of a guy with fish up his ass circulating, not a comforting thought.


It could have been trout. Unfortunately their heads were obscured...... P

Wait.

So the OP is saying that 1) people actually pay attention to the rating system and 2) kiddiez under 18 (should be under 30 imo) don't play M rated games?


BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
-wheeze-
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.

I suggest that the new rating for EvE online be "KY". It can perform double duty as either "Rated KY for Kill Yourself" or "Rated KY because you are going to need lube for the first 3 months."

Instead, everyone should have to play "Hey Punk! Are You Tuff E Nuff?" and complete story mode to prove they are in fact tough enough.

It will of course be very hard to organize, but this is important.

I am sure they'll rate it M as soon as Incarna 2.0 is released with the sex simulator and naked drugged slave dancers.Blink

you don't just, pick your rating, did i wake up and everyone stopped thinking again?

What can CCP do to pick the rating they get? they get to say whatsoever.

even if they add naked people to the game, whit nipples, they still don't get a say in if that's enough to get a M rating.

This tread is literally

Oh so naked turns it M? Is this some kind of obscure thing like the coloUr code used to scare people of invisible terrorists?

If we are on the topic of just 'making things up', I'd like to say I am a very srs poaster.

sometimes the maturity level in this game makes me think that this game is rated P for Ponies.

Sorry, no nude frolicking up here. Much to cold for that. Cold has strange and dangerous affects on the human body. We frolic bundled in thermalware!

Yeah, seeing a guy get shot in the head won't screw up a kid, but god help him if he sees a boob.

Sorry about my previous posts. Drinking Bass beer brings out my inner redneck. Odd.

If games like Gears of War and Mass Effect 3 can carry an 'M' rating and still be popular with the under 17 crowd, then I don't see why Eve can't be rated 'M' as well. Of course, this also means that an 'M' rating won't make a damn bit of difference.

Wake me when someone suggests an 'A' rating. http://www.esrb.org/ratings/ratings_guide.jsp


as you already found the relevant site one would think you had also realized that basically the only thing this rating applies to are agent conversations, mission texts and module names^^

all player interactions in online games are not taken into consideration for esrb ratings, eve is 90% player interaction

Sex does things to you... Makes you spend money on girls instead of booze and guns, promotes polygamy, jealousy and so on.

It also does strange things to teenagers: makes them lose their pimples and more confident once they get laid.

So, of course it's right to ban it in America and keep the young ones ignorant in the dark about this.

Yeah, surely a higher rating will filter out the retards and morons, we'll only get the older ones, fantastic.

Was it trout? If it was, I've seen that. If it's not trout, that means there's more pictures of a guy with fish up his ass circulating, not a comforting thought.

Whose comfort are we referring to?

The fish.

I imagine tail first would be difficult. Maybe you need a premium subscription to see that.
