    I'll keep this short and sweet. I am, in fact, 13 years of age. For the past year or so on Harpoon, I've said I was 19. This has been one of the worst decisions I have made. I started this lie because I believed that I wouldn't be treated as an equal if I told people how young I really was. After almost 2 years playing on Harpoon servers and interacting with all of the members of the great community here, I feel like I would've been treated as an equal even if I hadn't started this lie. But now, after this big mistake, I wouldn't blame any of you if you no longer treat me as an equal or if you no longer believe a word i say. I made a huge mistake and I thoroughly regret it. I am sorry for deceiving all of you. An even bigger sorry to Eoj Charlie and Clutch as I have lied directly to their face, which I am just plain ashamed to have done.​

    Bro age doesn't matter but maturity does. You being 13 is not a big deal but you could of been honest about that. Most people would of still accepted you whether being 19 or 13

    I think you being honest and making this post says more about you than what we thought your age was. Age is a number but character is something different.

    Age doesn't mean anything. Being sensible in mindset itself is the main thingy which count.

    Doesn't matter to me. I care about who people are, not their age. But I'm grateful you felt comfortable in telling us the truth.

    I mean, i don't care about age. If you are 19 or 13 and you are a really bad guy, I would treat you the same. Equally the same if you are a good guy. So just be yourself and you'll be fine :p

    I have to agree with pretty much everyone else in this discussion. Maturity is a bigger thing then age is. You could have a 19 year old who is less mature then a 13 year old.
