Copypasta'd straight from RS T&C.

 

You tell someone personal info and get killed?

 

It's your OWN damn fault for being an idiot.

When you're 13 you'll be able to talk. /rant

you sir are perhaps the worst ranter i have ever had the displeasure of reading in my runescape career. please contain your rage on the RSOF.

 

There would be no rant if I could post there, because quick chat restricted users cannot use the forums. There should be an IQ test and if you pass you can use free chat. If you fail, you can't use free chat unless you provide a good reason to jagex why you failed the test. It would filter out lots of annoying random people, and also, allow people under 13, that have a brain bigger than a peanut, to use quick chat. And also, it would stop bot accounts from being made completely by bots, reducing the amount of botting a little bit.

Anyone think it's a good idea?

 

 

An IQ test would solve nothing, IQ tests mainly tell how well you fit into society, not intellegence or maturity levels. Plus, if people had to take a test to use free chat, how many people do you think would choose RuneScape over another game?

 

As for you not knowing about the under 13 law, it applies everywhere, or at least across the US and Europe, I'm British, and I know that it definitely applies here.

Indeed...here's the way an IQ test works:

 

You answer questions.

Based on how well you answer those questions, you get a score.

The test divides your score by your age.

 

There is no way to 'fail' an IQ test.

 

100 is average intelligence for the age. A 5 year old and a 18 year old both of average intelligence would both have an IQ of 100.

:thumbup:

 

Judging by a couple of posts (and topics) you've made in the short time you've been here... I think it's better for the <13yos to remain muted.

The internet is full of lies. Being too honest won't get you very far.

I agree 100%

[Rhonda]

I live in England so I doubt that law applies here, because I've never heard of it.

Statements like this are why I read rants. :-D

IQ scores didn't prevent George Bush from getting into the White House, and they're not going to prevent any idiots from talking freely in game. ever been on xbox live? go on XBL forums somewhere and request an IQ test for those people. why fix something that keeps imbeciles out of my chat box? this rant should, in all honesty, be locked and considered spam as it is baseless. you have yet to logically back up any of your points.

 

Stupid? yes

Pointless? very

Annoying? yeah

 

 

edit: based on the argument just given regarding the fact that IQ scores factor in age, how do you justify the fact that an interlligent 5 year old has the right to talk in a game such as Runescape? in addition, why and for what reason are you advocating a, literally, illegal update?
