I'm referring specificly to this post

in wich it says if you do not use "tactical" reasoning you will be considered a farmer.

The problem here is the fact my 4yo son likes to play games with me, and since there is no training or single player mode I have to drop him in to match's. So usualy how it go's is he gets dropped in, He's aware enough of how the mechanics work to get the mech moving and to fire weapons. However he's not capable of actualy you know aiming, actualy steering, etc.

So does this mean I will eventualy be labled a farmer and banned?

[Shae Starfyre]

I see what you did there.

If you do then we won't have to put up with your 4 yr old son as a teammate? Hmmm OK.

[Ransack]

not...

feeding...

it...

No, but your son might. And rightfully so. If you did this in any other competitive multiplayer-only game you'd be shouted right to the door (LoL, DoTA, etc).

I understand that sucks, but what sucks more is how many games your son (Or dog or empty keyboard or any other "player" that lacks the capability to play) is ruining

Get off the computer and play a game with your son that is on his level. End of story and problem. Be a parent.

[Screech]

Have your son play Miss Kitty's Adventure Island instead, hear it's going free-to-play as well.

[Cyndle]

I'll have to reread the actual ToS but i'm pretty sure no were in it does it say the player must be competent. It's a live player controlling the keys, and thereby meets all requirements. So how will pgi handle this. It's something I realy want to know.

Will they ban and refund all unspent mc?

Will they ban not refund unspent mc and face civil action?

Will they get smart and put in a testing ground?

[Corvus Antaka]

You could get your son his own account

[MrPenguin]

[Sevaradan]

I hope so.

[Agent 0 Fortune]

Just like everything else in life, as his guardian you are responsible for his action.

[GODzillaGSPB]

Don't worry, your account is fine, I promise. I have to inform you though that authorities are underway to your home right now. Your son will be given to new parents who actually care for their child and you're going to get jailtime for beeing a bad father. Have a nice day.

[-Kite-Man-]

Make him his own account.

It's free, buddy.

[Kell Draygo]

If the OP doesn't get banned, then a lot of players are going to get their "sons" to play for them too. Mech Children Online here we come.

[stjobe]

[Carcass23]

*dryly* Nice try.

[Fusea]

Since the game is free to play... why not simply make your son his own account? I assume you're dropping him into battle in a trial mech in either case, and I would guess he wouldn't notice the difference. It seems like a very reasonable solution to me.

[Enigmos]

I think there is an age limitation in the ToS. If so you might be banned for that. Give us some more info and we'll see what we can djinn up for ya.
