BioWare Bans Player Over Internet Meme

The Internet is serious business, apparently. A user on Bioware's Star Wars: The Old Republic forums discovered you have to be careful when discussing your age.

The user posted the Internet meme "I'm 12 and what is this?" on the forums, but didn't realize you must be 13 to have an account for the game. BioWare took his comment literally and permanently suspended his account for violating The Old Republic's terms of service.

EA hasn't responded to requests for comment at this time.
