Like I said in the examples before, if you watch a sad film enough times, it won't affect you the way it did when you first watched it, it doesn't mean that you won't be emotionally affected if you were to suffer a similar emotional event in real life as the characters in the said film.

It's been over twenty years since these kinds of studies have taken place and that's probably not counting the studies that would have happened in the 80's and such when Mary Whitehouse got up on a soapbox and wanted to ban whatever upset her. If there was any real proof, it would have been discovered by now.

Don't try to make out people are insulting you because you are losing the argument, you are reaching with these accusations and it's obvious to everyone.

It IS my right to tell you you are wrong because that's my ****ing opinion. I don't care if you can't accept that, it doesn't change the fact that I think you're wrong and all you are doing with your accusations is exactly what you are accusing me of doing.

And this theory is evidence based...Where is it then?

Are you suggesting we should take evidence from the 80s to debunk my theory, what was in the study donkey kong?... Modern games are a tad more realistic, and as such they affect people more, like these the characters have depth... personality, character they are relatable on an emotional level.... Why is it so hard to reason that they could affect how we think or feel, especially if playing as a child? Games have age appropriate content, why if they can't affect us?

I'm not losing the argument, my argument hasn't changed.. it's exactly the same, you've completely misinterpreted my comments to suggest I was stating games made people violent... I never said that.

I'm not saying you are wrong in your opinion as I've stated earlier whatever you opinions are you are welcome to them I'm not going to attempt to suggest you're wrong...Though quite why you feel you can so rudely slight my opinion I don't know :/

I get it you think 'm wrong... Let it be known I don't care you think that... have the grace to let me revel in my wrongness should I so wish!
