I'm not even 20 years old and I've spent almost 7 years here. Isn't that weird? Like, everyone here is older than me. Oh my god I feel like a little kid. Like I need parental supervision. :|
How old are you? Are you older than most people here?

I am 22. I think I am around the average? I dunno. :3
I'm turning 25 in a couple of months. I feel like an old fart.
30. If oldbies are posting I feel normal. If younger people are posting, I feel like I am that creepy guy at the bowling alley.
When I joined I was 18 and about average age for the time. Now I'm 29 and feel really old compared to most of the people here. Most of the people who were regulars when I joined aren't around anymore, so that's probably why.
I am 18, though I've been here (officially, repressing memories of EoFF 2007) since I was 17. I'd say I'm probably one of the youngest active members on here to be honest! The average age from my rough calculations is sort of like the early twenties, say 23 or 24.Quote:

22. It feels like an average age but most of the people I end up talking to are older than me on here.
I'm 20, but 21 in two months. I feel young on here, and definitely think that sometimes being both young and a newbie stops me from being taken seriously at times.
This.Quote:

I am 25, and horrifyingly enough, I'm probably older than the average poster now. I registered when I was 12 (when the average age was probably 14-16), and I was younger than most people for a number of years. Now I practically have one foot in the grave.
I have a condition. :(Quote:

25 at the end of May. I forget that I'm still 24 sometimes (as in when someone asks my age I have to think for a second)
And I've been here for 12 years. I was 12 (almost 13) when I joined. I was young then, but now I feel kinda average or old. I guess a bunch of people younger than me have joined since I did. who'da thunk it
I joined when I was 12 and I'm 24 now. I think I'm in the average age group, but I could be wrong.
Wait, I'm older than you, now I am surprised.Quote:

I'm not surprised, I have the mindset where I assume everyone is older than me here.Quote:

I've noticed this happening for the first time this year. I'm 25, but I have actually forgotten that a couple times. I've had to remind myself that I'm not 24 anymore.Quote:

Let me tell you, it's really weird to find someone who shares a bunch of your interests and who you talk to a lot and then find out that you are literally over twice their age.
I'm 27 and I don't event remember what it was like to have energy to do stuff.
Oh my gosh you babies.
I am 27.
I am younger than the members that matter and older than the ones who don't.
I'm also 27, turning 28 in a few months. I'm also approaching my 10th EoFF birthday.
I've felt old since I was about 11 though.

Yes, yes, dear. That's nice. Go back to your shopping or your iPods or whatever it is kids do these days; this thread is for adults to discuss adult things. ;)Quote:

I'm 22, I'll be 23 this summer.
I arrived at this place when I was barely 14, i think it was like two days after my 14th birthday.
So basically, you're like Jojo: eternally a kid hereQuote:

I just turned 35. Not too long before I start pissing rust and farting dust.
I'm 29 but I don't really feel any different than I did when I was 21. Once I hit that age, I guess I had kind of developed 90% of my current personality so from there nothing much was going to change. I don't really 'feel' any age at all, to be honest. I just 'am'.
Also, 29 is pretty young, really, when you consider the fact that I'm going to live forever.
I turn 27 in a couple of months time.
Almost time to cash in the pension I don't have...
I will not disclose my age because I fear that one of the oldbies will use me to rejuvenate their youth.
Geeze. Ain't that the truth. I still feel like I'm 21. Like I am forever 21.Quote:

I'm kinda like that too. I usually don't really understand people my own age.Quote:

I joined here just about a month shy of my 12th birthday (my join month has been wrong forever), all the way back when the Backstreet Boy's Millenium album had a still-relevant title, so I'm looking at way-too-long-of-a-time being here. But you know what? Eff it.
Because toni(iiiiii)ght, we are young.
I am the exact opposite. The only people who I have ever been close to have all been at least a couple of years younger than me. Often even younger than that.Quote:

Age is weird.
I generally align myself with those that are more mature and/or older. In my sixth form, there's the first years, second years and third year students, and in my second year I mingle with the third years (and in my first years, the two above). I'm not entirely sure why, because I have many friends in the same year I am as well, but I don't know. Maturity matters with me, though it's not a defining factor because I do enjoy hanging out with my 'siller' friends.Quote:

I've always been a little older than the average here. That hasn't changed as the average has gone up.
Too late, I remember how old you were in 2004 :pQuote:

I've even got Faris on Facebook, yet she doesn't reveal her age, all it says is 9th September.Quote:

While a great many people my age certainly grew up with gaming like I did, many other people my age did not. Furthermore, as more people my age do things like get married, have kids, get houses and real jobs, and basically all the things that I'm not doing, they tend to put hobbies like gaming on the backburner.Quote:

Formy, here's a hint: she's younger than me.Quote:

She's also older than I am. There's a nice age bracket for you to flail around in. :3Quote:

If she's younger than you then she's not old and needs to shut the hell up :pQuote:
