I tried Rec Room and everyone sounded 11 years old. There was one guy standing there talking about killing himself. Was that atypical of what you find on there?

- cagenut 6y agoI'm pretty sure thats exactly how the middle aged dudes when I was a teenager described usenet.
- emerged 6y agoNot really, I remember usenet and other young technologies being populated by older people. I literally mean they sounded 11 or younger. Voices not yet having gone through puberty, by a decent margin of years. Several remarked that I was using a voice mod to make my voice deeper. I left feeling uncomfortable.
- throwaway413 6y agoEh, yes and no. Few times I've been on there, I've experienced similar to what you've mentioned. But another few times, I've had some great experiences with clearly adults - notably, playing pickup HORSE basketball games in the lobby.
- emerged 6y agoTo be fair, I did play basketball and ping pong with a few of them before I left. It felt like I was politely entertaining someone who was depressed and needed a friend.
