I'm 16 and I'm not that offended. Truth is that teens are just more emotional and rash than any other age group. Changes happen, it's hard to adjust to these changes, so teens tend to channel their emotions into an outlet. Plus, teens these days tend to take things for granted. They see a MUD as a place where they can do what they feel like, since it's a "game" designed for them. They don't realize there are other people behind the characters, and I am pretty sure that the heartless PKers out there are in their teens, but feel free to flame me on that.
Oh, as for me, I don't PK much. It's not that I don't "feel the urge", it's just because I suck every PK results in my death and imminent deletion. How's that for rash and impulsive?
