Player age

Is there a lowest age allowed to play? Like twleve and up or sixteen and up? I looked but I couldn't find anything that said it. I didn't find a user agreement.

Whyever would we prevent anyone from playing on account of such a thing as age? :)

There are quite some reasons why one could argue to limit use of H&H for the young ones:

Bloodsplatter (combat)
Violence (rage + murder)
Sex (cows fucking)
Gore (intestines)

But I hope that you - in case people who have a problem with this and start to argue along the lines of think about the children - do the only reasonable thing, and give them the following answer: keep an eye on your kids and don't put them unattended infront of a computer (or tv), thanks for the talk, now fuckoff.

Having a minimum age might make sense because it will keep the users more mature, leading to a more intelligent userbase.
But i think the current state of the game does this by itself quite good.

If they are mature enough to understand what just happened then they can play imo.

I agree with sabinati, age is just a number - possiblity of "mental problems from seeing bad things" is based on education, not on age.
For example, my third game on PC (by age of 11) was Postal, i live in Russia, and i have very good mental condition, compared to most of russians. Think about it.

Funny as though that may have been (it was, I lol'd), it really doesn't detract from sabinati's point. ;)
