This shouldn't be a reason to exclude them... You were once that age let alone act the same way and got accepted . I do not want this rule to happen anytime soon.

You contradict yourself in your opening argument, not to mention of how much of a silly rule it would be; elaborated by those posting above.
There are ways to deal with people who are rude, harass or generally act immature - but let's not forget that Habbo is aimed at teens, not that an age can really define maturity levels of any one person. By setting the age to 15, you'd be removing a few good DJs who as you stated about your manager, are mature and good at their jobs. Why should they be restricted purely because they are young and could quite possibly act their age?
If you see immaturity which effects the site, then go to your manager or any higher member of staff that can deal with the situation appropriately. But I will say, if you're fed up with it then you'll have a lovely shock when you get into real jobs with people who will be immature or you'll get fed up with - at the end of the day if they're not really doing anything wrong then nothing can be done about them.Quote:
The immaturety that I have seen is terrible. I myself am fed up with it, hince why I am making this post.
And as for your hypothetical situation - they may have believed that nothing would supposedly happen to said DJs, but because they weren't willing to act upon it no action would be taken. The staff here are not omniscient, so if they aren't made aware of the situation how are they supposed to deal with it?
Finally, why should all people below the age of 15 (if hypothetically people were not lying about their age, etc.) suffer because of the actions of a few? There are many things that could be said about that view of things, and I'll just say that being an immature and narrow-minded view is one of them.
yeah like others have said it's pretty pointless considering there are younger people who act a lot more mature and a lot of much older people are quite immature too. don't see the point.
I don't really think there's a problem to start implementing restrictions, the more help the better. When I was 16/17 I reckon I was and still am more immature than the majority of the younger staff at habbox. Let everyone apply!
Maturity is not always gained by age. I find it ridiculous that you're suggesting a 15 year old limit, especially when the current manager is 14.
As many have said, this is a teen fansite for habbo. As long as they're in the age limit for habbo, it's fine, immaturity should be dealt with properly if they're 13 or 19. Age really doesn't matter.
I second this!. most DJ's dont even post on the forum. Most of them tell me they just signed so they can become a DJ. they need more community interaction also !Quote:

I actually made my way to HabboxRadio Management when I was only 14 years old.
Looking back, yes, I was quite immature 10 years ago. I look at some of my old posts on here and I cringe about how immature I was. But I was very dedicated to improving and becoming a good DJ. Now, 10 years later, I'm still DJing for Habbox, and I have really developed my skills over the years. That would have never been possible if I was turned away based on my age years ago.
