RIOT was co founded by Brandon Berk and Mark Merril. What they did was they used the original DotA (Defense of the Ancients) as a base and Guinsoo made Dota- Allstars by inserting new champs, various new play styles and numerous items. Then later on a couple of DotA members thought it was so fun and innovative that it deserved to have its own name and then that’s when it was named League of Legends. In March 2013 it released a beta service of an OS X client in addition to their Windows client. RIOT Games currently has over 1,000 people working on League of Legends.

Killstreaks from previous call of duty games have been replaced with score streaks which are now earned through gaining points rather than getting kills. The weapons in Black ops 2 have a progression system which is used to unlock attachments for the weapons, after maxing out the guns players have the option to prestige the weapon but doing so resets the gun losing all the attachments until the player ranks back up again, you are able to customize your gun with emblems and clan tags in exchange for the prestige.

Flag football was created in 1933, and was played by many military officers by the 1940s. The soldiers could not play tackle football due to the risk of injure.

Early leagues began in the 1960s and the first flag football association was formed. The National Touch Football League changed the rules to touching being the way to “tackle” a player instead of the grabbing the flag.

As it was mentioned in the article, “Let kids Run Wild Online”, kids want to have freedom and a place place where they can have some privacy, a place where they can explore the world and themselves without their parents haunting them. Now, we don’t see as many kids in the streets due to the dangers they can encounter. Therefore, teens use internet to have some freedom and some time for themselves. Now days, parents concentrate a lot of their attention in their kids which is completely understandable considering their concern about their kids’ safety. Although, I agree that parents need to give their kids their space in the internet considering that the internet is now an important source of freedom and sometimes the only source of freedom for teenagers. Over protective parents also harm their kids by not letting them learn from their mistakes, kids are not developing the skills to confront the struggles of the world, and kids won’t really know what their personality without their parents watching them all the time. The best way parents can help their children is not by motoring what they do in the internet but by having good communication with their kids and by teaching them values and morals because their kids will encounter dangers wherever they go and parents can’t be with them all the time. Therefore, parents must teach their kids what to do in a situation of danger or even how to avoid those situations.
