And before you post that being 18 is a rough idea, so is every other generalization. 18 isn't the age used everywhere in the world, so someone has to be wrong.
I think most of the people touting the "18+" are talking about US-WoW, which you can argue the generalization would be "US adult = 18 therefore be a legal adult in your country of origin".

The day you become a legal adult in your country is the day you become accountable for your own choices. Which means if people start talking about controversial things in ventrilo/gchat/whatever they're not going to get some kid's mom aggro because the kid didn't ask mommy's permission before joining an adult-language guild.


And I'm personally not saying it has anything to do with maturity from my standpoint. My new guild has plenty of under-18 folks who are excellent players and we have no problems with. But we have to realize that they're less in control of what their schedule looks like, and if their parents decide they're going to summer school or whatever we've lost them almost the entire summer.
