Ppl were saying stuff like "I'm going to be for team plus won" (in other words, fifteen) and "I'll be driving next year."

And this other person was like "I have my permit."
I just think it's strange because I haven't seen people say that in WW

Oh, and also, did you consider that they might be lying? Maybe they're not even teenagers, and are just trying to look and sound "cool" and "grown up". Maybe they're just trying to impress people in the room.

Oh, sorry Astrolified - of course Webkinz is for all ages
It's just that in that room this person came in and was being VERY inappropriate. But I don't mind it in general, just when ppl r being..well, y'know, bad!
And i don't mean anything wrong with like driving or being 15, but I've just never seen someone say that on WW so for some reason I wanted to get screenshots..yes, I can be weird
And you're right that they could be lying, they could be 10-year-olds saying they are teenagers when they're not

I think they are not "taking over", there are just more around this time.

[Thriller]

Yes, that's true

I'd have to agree with you. Even though there's a lot of teens and such on Webkinz, there still are children and they may see this. It's rediculous.
And I think I might've just spotted my friend in there...

well, you have to remember that a few years ago, these "teenagers" were smaller, probably starting out on webkinz in like, 7th or 6th grade. and if they are anything like me, they don't want to give it up.

I do not think that Thriller was implying anything. I think it was more of an observation. I have noticed that also. It is not a bad thing...just sometimes you don't expect to see some of the conversations in the rooms. Webkinz is wonderful because all ages get a kick out of it!!!


And PolkaDot is right!!! These kids are the same ones from 3-4 years ago that still love the webbies! Good observation PolkaDot!

I'm one of those 'teens'. And what I don't get is why yer all sadness bout it?

[sillybung]

Webkinz is for all ages. But saying those things can be inaproprate!!! Disscussing there privet life on a kid friendly site is....well it encureges the younger ones to do that when they get to that age. Saying you just got a car on webkinz is sorta odd don't you think? Little kids are on webkinz and they see that and then they will start to talk about there stuffed animals or there pets and there personal life. Think about this: A little girl who just started kinz chat plus and then there is a pet saying: I just made cookies for my kids. The little girl is going to say somthing like: thats sounds good, My mom made candy apples.Then the mom would say cool. The little girl see's that saying that does not intrest them and then she will start saying somthing else that might intrest them thats not all that not all in the webkinz spirt. That stuff is unnessary to say in webkinz. Remember webkinz is a kid freindly site and a lot of kids go on, so becarfull of what you say

Funny, I'm a teen and it's considered the most uncool thing in the world to play on Webkinz.

But I do it daily anyway. XD
