How old are you - if you discuss in this forum a lot

I have seen age-determining threads like this before, but what I want to know is the average age of the people who actually discuss a lot.

I have ~5000 posts (my other account isn't working right now, but Sal's trying to fix it), about half of which are discussion. I think I count as a major debater, so yeah... I never tell anyone my real age because then they might try to discount my arguments saying "he's just a teenager, so his opinion doesn't count" etc. etc., so be satisfied in knowing that I am older than 13 and younger than 21.

Woot, first 21-25 year old on the poll!

I'm sad that I just got happy about that...

Interesting. You're actually a bit younger than I thought you were.
I guess I'm the first 26-36 in this poll.

Perosnally I would have made my first group 13 & Under, because I have a nseaking suspicion there are craploads of 13yo's here.

For the record I'm 18. I start playing when I was 16, one month before my birthday. (Which is June '03 for those trying to work out when I joined)

I started posting when I was 20, took a break for a while, and now that I need to recuperate from a failed relationship, my postcount has risen exponentially :D
(I am now 21)

In my ASL thread (in my sig) I have the age of just over 260 NSers, and the average age seems to bounce between 20-21 although the median age is probably below that. Thats because there are a few people on here >30 years old but none <10 so that tends to life the average slightly above the median age :)

Hope that helps, by the way I am 20 if you were wondering

Im asssuming its due to the anonimity (sp?) of the internet, but it amuses me how willing the older* people on here are to give their age. In RL its not considered polite. Never figured out why, as supposedly wisdom comes with age so therefore it should be something to be proud of


*older as apposed to the majority of people here how are 11-30 years old.

I am 22 and been on NS for about two years and change...not a super poster or anything, but I have been around long enough to get two issues accepted and have a population of some huge number.
