    Forcing a 13 year old to see many of the comments that are being said is illegal under US law. Failure to enforce these rules would result in the game being shut down.

    peace out

    Thats what i wanted to read, this horn thing is quite more serious than most of the people here can see. Devs must kick this horn outta PWI as fast as they can.

    you cant take age into consideration though for a few reasons ->

    1) under the age of 18 PARENTS much give permission for them to register and play

    2) there are many under the age of 18 that are the ones wc'ing/horn shouting these things


    the above is CLEARLY listed in the TOS...(see below) b:shutup

    Well according to the actual thing you have to fill out to play PWI, you need to be 13+ to make an account. Along with that, it says you "need parent permission", Now i'm 16. I made this account when I was 15. I never asked for parental permission because my mother doesn't know jack about games and alot of parents in the current world don't. So most kids never ask.

    While I agree most of the WC spam is from the younger area, it's because the kids are now-a-days exposed to all this bullcrap and parents, teachers, basically adults in general, don't go ANYTHING to help put a stop to it....


    So please.... b:shutup

    My girlfriend wants me to do it but I cant be bothered to actually log in this horrible game to take screens. That would require reinstalling this **** on my computer again and that is NOT going to happen.

    peace out

    uhm, if you don't play the game, or even have it installed anymore, why are you on here talking about the game you don't play? Just curious.

    not saying good or bad, but the TOS is there for a reason. this type of reason. people cannot use "the children" as an excuse.

    Stop being such a tool.

    There is nothing wrong with the horns. They just need to be more expensive.

    its not that i don't like the horns, i think being able to change the color is a pretty cool little thing. the thing i don't like about them is the fact that they show up in faction and squad chat.
    They are a good idea but they should only appear on world chat or at least make it so we can filter them out of faction and squad chat.

    Actually, I technically didn't. Because I yelled at my mom "You mind me playing some games?" and she responded with "Nope!". So via that loop-hole, I didn't invalidate the ToS on my end :P

    do not pin me TOS for your logic:
    If you are 13 or over, but are under the age of 18, we require that you review these Terms with your parents or guardian to ensure they read and agree to them.

    thats the point, they wrote that just cause ppl cant use children as an excuse.

    thats what i call "escaping from problems and hiding in safezone"

    no it is not. your 13 year old child does not have to play a game on the internet. it really is simple, as it is not meant to be a babysitter. it is and should be the parents responsibility to monitor their childrens online actions at all times, rather simple imo.

    from a legal stand point, these are a protection and this is not nor will ever be the only company to have the exact same safe guards. once again, it is the parents responsibility not the makers of this game to "shield" a child from potential harm, etc.

    this horn selling is just like fire weapon merchants in wars: its not their fault if ppl die, but if they dont sell ppl wont die.

    is this a perfect world or its just like the **** real world? b:shocked

    edit: im making maybe too big comparisons, this is just a game, but its just to make it easier to think

    This really shouldn't be about "the children". That has nothing to do with the situation. Parents need to deal with their own kids. Personal responsibility here folks. This line of argument isn't really helping. "For the children" shouldn't be a default argument.

    The issue is do these horns add to the over all game play? Are they a good and welcome addition or should they be taken out, or tweeked?

    They should be adjusted so they can be filtered out seems to be the overall feeling currently, one I am in agreement with.

    No, you're making **** comparisons that have no relation to the problem at hand: They're annoying

    That's it.

    Stop trying to inflate the issue.

    What I find funny is that the mass majority of the people posting here are in strong agreement, while there have mainly been 2 people that for one reason or another seem to be against said agreement just to be against it.

    Hey guys,


    We realize there are a lot of vocal opinions about the new Perfect Horn; please let us know what you think about it in this thread.

    Personally, I'm on Heaven's Tear right now to gauge the situation, and I've seen about one Horn message per minute. I'm thinking that Horn usage will decrease a bit once everyone gets his or her chance to try the new item, but we'll see.

    So please share your thoughts on the subject here. Thanks :)

    fixed. im dissapointed in you Frankie

    on topic: this perfect horn is the most annoying **** ever!!!!!! b:angry and when you see the pink text you get excited thing ooh i got a whisper? but no! its just some random ***** spewing nonsense!
    -retired-

    now playing megaten and...Forsaken World ;)

    Ok, i said what i had to say. I realise this is going a bit too far.

    The best idea is to increase the fee to 25 silver and to increase the cooldown of horn usage to 10 minutes imho.

    Better would be totally remove horn chat, but it wont happen i think.

    Peace, i just hope something will change.

    i dont know who you are referring to but i wanted to say this: i am not for against these horns tbh. i just like the discussion of both sides in this and the fact that it is actually a decent discussion as far as these forums go b:victory

    True, and I wasn't actually talking about you, I mean the main two who happened to be calling the people who at least want the option to block HC (Horn Chat) "QQers," and putting down all their other opinions.

    You're doing fine, though.
    But to get back on topic: Can we have an actual poll done here to see who wants what done with the horns?

    I don't think it matters that it might slow down over a few weeks, a month from now some idiot might buy several of them and spam repetedly to the point where you couldnt talk to anyone at that time, JUST to annoy us.

    Another thing that I'm upset about is what people could spam in my chats. WC sometimes gets sexual, racist, sexist, homophobic etc once when players were going on and on cracking jokes about dead babies I was very sensitive about it but then I could just turn WC off and get myself back together. With this horm thing that could still happen, no matter how long it has been out and the only way to avoid it is to log off the game or just quit completely.
