...No?

To be frank, if both parties are over the majority of age and chill with it, I don't give a damn.

Anyway this conversation about dating rules I will likely never use is interesting and all but I have posts to make, :p.

This is true, but there's a point where society considers to be the "ick" factor. You could very well date someone below that that's still over age of majority, but a lot of people are going to cock eyebrows.

Also, it's a lot more useful in the teen years, so that you don't have seniors in high school dating twelve year olds.

You know, considering the fact that Redemit age differently from humans, I don't think the equation is too terribly comparable. I think x/3 + 50 works better. *nods*

Twelve year olds shouldn't be dating, anyways. The equation only works for a minimum age of 14. Any lower than that, and it no lower gives rational results. For instance, for a twelve year-old, it would give a minimum dating age of 13.

True... so if you were let's say 300 years old, the the lowest you can date is 150 years old, whereas if you were 200, the lowest you can date is like 117 years old. Etc. I forget how to calculate maximum age though. :P

Eh, stuff. New IC is up, by the way.

@Olthar: Makes sense, :P.

So if you're 150, you can only date people from 100 and up?

@Indi: ...Just use the other person's age and calculate if the first is within range?

I forget, too, but it's not particularly as important.

There is a max age equation, but I don't remember what it is.

True; twelve year olds should just be kids, it'd be creepy otherwise. It works best for adults.

*nod* It's really not, as long as you're all above age of majority, it's fine. Min age is more important to society for the most part.

Yes, I think x/3 + 50 works best. It gives a minimum age of 75 before it stops working, which I think is a comparably good starting point if puberty begins at 50 and also does well to incorporate the elongated and slow aging process of the Redemit. *nods*

What I always find weird, and I'm not sure how many people actually think it, but if I had a girlfriend that was like, say, a month younger then me, and I turn 18, then suddenly some people seem to think it is all creepy and stuff...

However, I've never had a girlfriend and I'm 18, and don't have any plans to in the near future, so yeah :)

Aren't they one and the same? >.>.

I mean, if the other person is over min age, great. But you might not be.

Ahh, whatever.

What a horrible existence.
"The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."—former Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman
