LFC_chris Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I must say I'm kinda surprised at the ages being mentioned on here. I thought the average would be much lower, and that I'd probably be one of the older people, it's nice to know that I'm not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supershot Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I'm 17. Ive only been watching wrestling for about 5 years this Wrestlemania. Sadly I JUST MISSED the attitude era. I watched back then but didn't watch it on a weekly basis. I started watching it weekly in 2004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg McNeish Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 For example, if I had wished to discuss an infestation of ****roaches in my flat; I would be denied.

Phantom Stranger Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I would think that since we are all adults we share the ability to self censor, using mature language only when required, if at all. The swear filter has caused me problems in the past when trying to discuss, or even post links of, anything (especially Japanese Workers and promotions) containing the letters that spell out a 'banned' word. For example, if I had wished to discuss an infestation of ****roaches in my flat; I would be denied. You're basing this reading on all adults on this forum based on the small sample of people who've participated on a thread within one game's section, not the others. I know I was playing around with Championship Manager as a li'l kid. It wouldn't surprise me to find out that young basketball or college football fans do the same.

Completely glossing over the excellent points you make, the central meaning that I'm taking from your post, is that professional wrestling is an adult pursuit, whereas football and basketball are childish flights of fancy.
