Obviously if a kid takes a game to a project level like you discussed, that is a bit different than deleting something that is more of a "flavor of the week" or just exists for gaming "achievements".


:P


Is it okay to destroy things you child has created if they're only a "flavor of the week"?

If your child is an artist, and every week they're working on some new type of different artwork, the "flavor of the week" per se, is it okay to destroy those artworks?


How much effort does your child need to put into something before you feel it is inappropriate to destroy it?

The thread literally had and has been discussing gaming profiles and the fact that it is a marketing gimmick, lol. The OP clearly states it as well as the thread title. Sorry you missed all of that?

And I'm not destroying anything lmao and have even said so previously. Did you not read at all before posting? And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known

As far as "destroying" things, I "destroy" old game saves all the time to clear up disk space. My child will never recover.

I have also donated and thrown away many toys. How ever will she recover???? And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known

When I use the term "you", I'm speaking in general terms of "people" and not you specifically. My apologies if it gets interpreted incorrectly, but I'm not speaking specifically to you. I'm using it in a general term.

When I say things like "You don't ___" it should be interpreted as "People shouldn't ___". My apologies for the confusion.

If it wasn't clear, it is about profiles that are little more than marketing gimmicks and I have said this many times throughout the thread, lol.

You were also specifically asking me questions in regards to what I said lol.

You were also specifically asking me questions lol. Again, I was asking in general terms, not specific to you. I'm sorry if that has confused you, but, think of it as though I were on stage giving a seminar, and asking the same questions to an entire group of people. They're not specific to you, they're open questions posed to anyone reading the thread. I'm not specifically targetting you.

The opening post makes no mention of it, and the only mention of "marketing gimmick" that I can see (other than the last couple of posts) is on page 5 when you stated:

That said, I suppose I never gave my opinion on the matter. I can't think of a situation that would require me to delete the gaming profile of my kid, however, I also hope to teach my kid that a gaming profile is really little more than a marketing gimmick.

If that's what the focus of the thread is supposed to be about, perhaps you should add it to the opening post.

Ok if you want to believe that, I won't stop you, lol.

And, I suppose you are right although no one else seemed to struggle with it.

Edit: as silly as it is, there you go. I added an edit to make it crystal clear that I am talking about gaming profiles/account on a gaming profiles/accounts thread with the OP being specifically about gaming profiles/accounts. And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known
