Ladykikyo = Imogean.
So, 2 people. Not 3.
Just throwing it out there.
Also, by the quoted convo, it doesn't seem like you were being interrogated or insulted..
Majority of guilds do interrogate before accepting...

The Dictionary recognizes "driscrimination" as
-to make a distinction in favor of or against a person or thing on the basis of the group, class, or category to which the person or thing belongs rather than according to actual merit
I'm pretty sure someone's age is a group

It's a requirement, not a limiting obstacle meant to put others down.
Strip clubs have age limits. You're not allowed in if you're under 18, majority of them.
Why is this? Because the environment is inappropriate for the ages and maturity of those under that restriction.
Everyone who breathes is able to age and become, 15 years old and over.
Everyone is able, which means there is no discrimination of any group.
(( I feel bad for you Eden, this is kind of ridiculous... ))

Strips clubs DO have age limits, but if you can get in and you don;t get what you came in there for becouse of your age (lets say 70 and age has done a number on you) then that could be discrimination
Now assuming everyone who plays is the correct age of 13+, and seeing as how you need to be 15+ in order to be a part of this guild, because

for the record this is going by the Californian drinking age
This is just like walking into a bar as a 21 year old, but yet you need to be 23 in order to get a beer, because a 21 year old drank a beer and made the bar owner realize that 21 year old's can not handle beer, even though the age limit for beer is 21.
And yes Selfpride, anyone is able to age and be 15+ but just the same age can not determine maturity which is why my interpretation see's it as discrimination.
and you notice how you jump to a conclusion when i said "discrimination >:o" because it was a very broad topic
Also
Can age determine height?
Weight?
Pants size?
IQ?
Ability to play Mabinogi?
Maturity?
In the california bar example, the owners of the bar can refuse to serve anyone under the age of 23 because it is a private club. However, most bar owners realize that they will make more money by serving as broad a client base as possible. In the case of a guild, it is also a private club and the leader can operate it however he or she chooses. Personally, I feel that my guild is best served by allowing older kids and adults to join and restricting access to the youngest players of the game.
Additionally, despite misconceptions, there are only a few specific statuses that are protected by US antidiscrimination laws, and those are the ones I mentioned near the beginning of this thread. Age is not recognized as a protected status, except in the case of the elderly. Look at US law and you'll quickly find that minors (those under the age of 18) don't have any legal rights anyway. (Except basic human rights)
In any case, it doesn't really matter, cuz if you're under 15 I'm not gonna let you in anyway. You can scream discrimination at the top of your lungs and it's not going to make me accept you.
And, since I'm already posting and it's been brought up before, let me address the claims that I'm "sexist." (So I guess this is directed at SSAlissa, who made the claim) I'm not sexist. I didn't say that males couldn't apply to the guild, I just said that we're specifically inviting females because we don't have many and we want to have a more balanced player base. This is more akin to affirmative action than sexism. I'm not denying access to either gender. That would be silly. (It should be noted, however, that I did specifically deny access to SSAlissa, who was rude. But I denied her membership based on rudeness, not her gender.)

If you're going to try to make a point, make sure it's valid and you're dedicated to the point.
If you could care less, then stop trying to troll a recruit thread.

Sure doesn't, but it SURE DOES HAVE A CORRELATION! :D

I actually like to interrogate people for no reason...
Why do you keep posting here?!?
Why are you choosing sides on things that require opinions?!?
Why are your shoes mismatched?!?
Why are you coming toward me with a knife?!?

"Milo, Tock, and the Humbug pile back in the car and soon find themselves driving along the Sea of Knowledge. When each of the three makes an unfounded assumption about the ease of their quest, they leap out of the car and find themselves standing on the island of Conclusions. Unfortunately, they discover that it's much easier to jump to conclusions than to jump away; they have to swim back to shore. On the other side of the shore, Milo and Tock are soaked through with the waters of Knowledge while the Humbug, who thinks he already knows everything, is bone dry. Milo comments that he has learned a lesson about jumping to conclusions, and the three travelers are soon on their way again."
