why do people talk ♥♥♥♥ about their enemy ON DESCRIPTION ???

[Campbell1]

I hate when people start any phrase with "as a parent," as if you are particularly wise on a particular subject because you are maybe raising healthy children.

I would hope that "as a parent," you've seen what happens in Global and realize that this isn't a game young children need to have access to. I give virtual side-eye to the parents of every child I come across in Global. Unless you are directly monitoring your child's activity in the game, I can't see how letting them play it would be a good idea.



This ain't the NFL, we're not here to be role models. Most of us aren't paid to play and don't represent our team owners, etc., the reason the NFL and other sports are imposing these rules is more about protecting their bottom line, protecting the integrity of the ownership, etc., than protecting players from being talked to harshly.

That said, trash talk doesn't have to be vulgar. It can be as much about motivating your own clan as it is about talking to the other. If by words, I can get the enemy clan to give up and give me their loot without a fight, why not do it?

Great post!

I'm a parent of a 4-year-old and 1-year-old, and I can say this much; it isn't anyone's responsibility but mine to filter what my children see or hear. And as for anyone under the age of 18 playing this game, I can guarantee they're hearing the same, if not worse, language on the bus ride to school. You can't protect them all the time. The important thing is teaching them right from wrong.

Has anyone ever heard professional athletes on the field? Those rules might be there, but they don't talk nicely to each other and ask how their opponent's grandma is doing.

The answer is pretty simple. Ignore them and beat the s**t out of them.

To be honest, I've never had a clan change their message to insult us. And I've been in about 57 wars. I'm sure it's bound to happen, and when it does, hopefully we'll shut them up with a win.

The only time we changed our message was to ask the other clan to fight. Was one of those, "you must fight or get kicked, you must donate more than you receive ect." And they didn't use one attack.
