Originally posted by northernladuk View PostBloody Fortnite is a right pain in the arse. Manchester police circulated a parental guide about it recently which is pretty unprecedented.

Originally posted by northernladuk View PostCount yourself lucky. My lads and their mates are admittedly very good at it so tempers flare and moods change when they lose or get kicked off. Youngest hasn't made any effort to find himself a job over the summer as he expects to be on it from the moment he wakes up to the when he goes to bed (at whatever time in the morning he thinks that might be). Games were always a problem but as I say, this one takes it to a new level.

Trouble is his 16 hours tends to mean 12pm till 4am next day. Not going to happen. Especially with the noise he makes.
