Mr. Love, you are half a century late... dictatorship is out. I doubt very much on you meeting the age criteria, you have continually displayed periods of immaturity or inability to deal with problems.
Second off, you fail to even think half the time. Thirteen Year Olds have an ENDLESS supply of money, it is called parents. Heck, as a thirteen year old I had over $400, legally. Heck, FPSC is only $50, a console game is $50 (That is where the 400 went at age 16 [my parents denied me proper gaming gear till that age.])
Now, you even go to say that these thirteen year olds who cannot afford FPSC are responsible for it's illegal distribution... that is not the case. I estimate the age of piracy to be around 16 to 24.
Why? Because to pirate software you have to have enough time to find a CD Crack, or enough experience to program it... Thirteen year olds CAN do some amazing things, but many are too ignorant to take this notion into hand and learn what they need to know.
And how do you plan to enforce this 'law'. The Internet is anomyonus, as long as you live with your parents, TGC cannot determine your age. And even then, you are assuming that thirteen year olds are a very minor portion of FPSC's consumer database, at 16 TGC wants you to be using DBP so that they make money off of you using FPSC to create maps and DBP to make the engine.
What would this accomplish? You want to have a forum that has no carefree conversation, no nice opinions, just telling everyone that their product sucks and to get a life. Well, hate to break it to you, but this thread is 'care free conversation' it has nothing to do with FPSC but rather forum management.
QED: No, never, and please don’t ask for this again.

I haven't even heard of that program before and got very good at it in about 5 min, didn't even look at the read me, nor the help file. Someone just write down the basic commands for me and I figure it out from there. "
Put your money where your mouth is...
int x;
for (x=0;x<MaxNumber;x++) {
System.out.println("new line");
System.out.print("space");
}
if (x==1 || x!=7 && x>=8) { //if x is 1 or x is not 7 and x greater then equal to 8.
}else{
}

Program me a text-based game where you fly a ship by typing in coordinates to fly to.
Why? Because you insulted me by claming superiority over people who try... claiming that even without any programming experience you can both associate command with action, and use higher-level logic to determine how to proceed. Or even further, in more complex programs understand where an error will occur and why.
You sound like an ambiguous person, at several points you claim that you don’t know how to do simple things, yet you claim to be able to figure out the most complex things with immense ease, strange how people think now a days.
I know I am limited, and I will admit when I am wrong, but if some unintelligent moderator by the name of Jeku comes along with his verbal diarrhea, making statements that do not pertain to the debate at hand, or attempting to sound smarter by using backdoor insults because either he
a) is too lazy to even try to defend what he is saying
b) does not know what he is talking about
c) does not know what the debate is about
Or someone tries to debate in an illogical manner (basically “I’m right you’re wrong, but I don’t know why I am right”) then it will sound like I am acting like I believe I know more. I know a lot, I retain more info then I need, but I do not know everything… I forget things, and remember them when I don’t need it… but I have never blatantly said I am smarter then you…
Jeku, who seriously needs to read my posts, will interpret anything I post as “I am smarter then you”, and will clearly make his stand on how I am NOT smarter then him, by insulting what I said in the most illogical manner.
End Run, you can make a statement of superiority, but be prepared to defend what you say.
(Why did I bring Jeku into this? Because, he knows that he needs to learn to swallow his ‘pride’ and actually debate something, and while I am talking to you about superiority, he should at least make some half-assed reply to spice up this conversation…)

I believe society is flawed; our notions on life, on child rearing, stem too far back to be of relevance in this day and time.
