mmorpg.com discriminates against old people!

in Off-Topic Discussion

While filling out my account details recently I came across something both shocking and disgusting, in the birthdate section, the earliest option you can choose is 1907, meaning no one can put anything over 99 years old.

This is an example of blatant discrimination against all the 100y/o + members of the gaming community, to think I once trusted this site, thinking it was an informative source of unbiased information, it seems I have misplaced my trust once again. MMORPG.com, you should be ashamed of yourselves, you have brought my faith in humanity, and many other people's, to a new low, not since the days of Hitler have I seen such unashamed disregard for fellow human beings.

I for one, am not going to let this one slide, and I urge you, fellow gamers, to do the same. I declare the first official online war, from this day forth, we will shower the enemy with pointless spam, flames, and poor grammar, until this barefaced "ageism" has come to an end, or, until we make the forums so unbearable, that people will flee this once great website, never to return.

It is a task of immense difficulty, but we cannot stand idly by while this crime against humanity goes on.

    Yes, this discrimination is something MUCH worse than bots and gastric bypass gone wrong..COMBINED!

    We must band together and defeat these follies and rid this discrimination! *along with old Anarchy Online ads*

    Just kidding uncle jimmy. If there's any 100+ year old gamers out there, i definently need to shake your hand. Or your e-hand, same thing.

    thats the spirit, we, the gamers will continue to post crap like this until this attrocity has been righted, or until the forums become so unbearable that people will simply no longer visit mmorpg.com, leaving it to sink into interweb oblivion.

    Together, we will spam like we've never spammed before!

    The first official online war was between ytmnd.com (and allies such as newgrounds.com) and ebaumsworld.com.  And wow did ebaumsworld get owned.

    You know what, I'm going to speak out against this.

    I say screw 100+ y/o gamers. That's right, I said it!

    They think they're so haughty with the "I was alive before the internet" and "I saw the invention of the car" and all that stuff.

    They have done nothing but ruin our games from day one. Making the developers put in larger font sizes for their tired old eyes. It's a travesty against gaming!

    Down with centigenarians!
