I've been playing DOD and DOD:S for years now. I've usually gravitated to the Edge servers simply because it was always a clean, no-punk place to play. Recently I joined and am now proudly sporting the =e= logo in front of my name.
I've got a few kids, one of them a 4 year old who simply can't resist taking a peek at the computer whenever I'm playing DOD:S. He loves to sit on my lap or stand beside me and "look for bad guys" while I play. He gets more animated than I do at times I think, especially when I snag the MG's.
Last night I got called away from the game to answer the door. When I came back, my son had put on my headphones and was talking to the other players telling them he had to go to bed. I didn't hear the whole conversation or how long it lasted (was only away for a few minutes) but heard enough of the reply from a few of the other players online to know that this is not only a family-friendly server, but that the guys (and gals) playing were geniunely nice people who didn't get all fussed that some 4 year old was spamming the mic channel. It made me smile knowing that as long as I stay on Edge servers, I'm with good people.
Thanks all....you really have no idea how such a little act of kindness makes a parent happy. We can't even turn on the mic channel on Xbox Live due to all the profanity and just outright ugliness. This place is truly one-of-a-kind and I'm thrilled to be here!
