I made this in the front-room too, but apparently that poll was in the wrong place. So here we go again, if it's not topic-worthy, just lock it, thx.

I still fit into the first category by a few months.
23 and a bit... and getting older by the minute...
Is there supposed to be a poll ?
Edit: hmm didn't show first time... polls there now
I remember the good old days when i was usually in the first age group... now im getting on and am lumped in with the 25 year olds... in less than 2 years ill be in the same group as the 30 year olds...
I'm doing my part to keep that median score up there...~;p
Heh, same here :juggle2::sweatdrop:Quote:

51-(I am assuming blank space means infinity) seems like a big section compared to the others....
Yeah, the final two categories should just be titled "grizzled" and "infirm." That would cover us geezers quite well.
How old are you :grin:Quote:

I'm in the first group, but not as loud as all the others.
Second group for me, though depressingly only a few months from the third.
Make a decent poll and find out....Quote:

We have members over 60, and under 15.
Here is how the poll should be:
Under 18
18-21
22-29
30-39
40-49
50-59
60-65
65+
Yeah, wasn't that like 29.5 years, back in the MTW1 days?Quote:

This poll should have been made public...
Then I could see how old ACIN was!
If this was public I wouldnt vote. I gave up giving my real age when I got told on another forum a few years ago "Your 14? You cant possibly have a opinion on this subject". Since then its been 18 :2thumbsup:Quote:

Make your own. You don't even know if I voted in this one.Quote:

I'v managed to go down a catagory since the last 'age' poll, not sure if i'm happy or sad about that.
:2thumbsup:
I'm in that third age category... the time when you realize that age really has nothing to do with much of anything onwards.
I didn't make it a public vote, because I'm interested in the avg. age of Backroomers, not who are the old farts and the teenagers...
middle category for me.
More like the 15th anniversary of my 30th birthday. But what the hell, it sure beats the alternative...Quote:

Does it make you feel better that I am a pessimistic, sceptical, cynical, Machiavellian 15 year old?? Yet I am always optimistic about myself, not out of arrogance or naivety, but simply out of necessity, as living pessimistically is difficult unless you are like me, who is only pessimistic about everything else, such as the world and people around themselves.Quote:

That's an interesting shift from 5 years ago, when the average reported age here was 26-27. A much higher student population, it seems.
Hey Dave great to see you again. :o)
Blimey, only 35? You're just a whippersnapper. :)
or mebbe not.....
Are you saying old people can't use the internet?Quote:
