Just curiosity on my part but how old are you?

From what I glean the majority of people on NS actually seem to be between 20 and 30 years old but since its a testable thesis, I figured why the hell not test it? If you don't want to make your age public, please just vote to satisfy my curiosity and don't put it down.

I'm 24.

I'm 26 and not getting any younger....did I mention that I am a pescimist?

51

good thing we have bunches of teens to balance THAT one out.

Old in my years enough to have seen this thread pass several times.

I'm 31.

Seventeen.

Old in my years enough to have seen this thread pass several times.

LOL I've seen it three times myself (and I took a year sebbatical from NSG).

24, and drinking every night.

24, and drinking every night.

can I drink with you? drinking alone sucks.

I got some vodka, if thats any incentive.

I think I'm, like, the third or fourth youngest poster. o_0;

Old in my years enough to have seen this thread pass several times.

Well it must be about time to have one, I have been here 2 years and never seen it.

can I drink with you? drinking alone sucks.

Sure, but I am drinking due to depression, so fair warning.

meh, I will be too drunk to care.

You have to be kidding me :D

We have it every couple of months, you must just miss it chaque fois it's around.

Perhaps? I know a 17 year old in Asia who plays the game but doesn't read the forums.

Really??? I am amazed.

Isn't Conservative Morality 13 or something? And then there's that Finnish kid about who's 14.

I think Western Mercenary Uno and Zilam are younger than me.
Isn't Conservative Morality 13 or something?If he is, that would make me fifth. I feel better already. :D

Next thing you know I will be debating politics with a second grader :tongue:

You have to be kidding me :D

We have it every couple of months, you must just miss it chaque fois it's around.

To be fair its only been a month since I had a constant home connection. If not, I'd already have about 20,000 posts :p.

Really??? I am amazed.

Nope, honest.

To be fair its only been a month since I had a constant home connection. If not, I'd already have about 20,000 posts :p.

I hear ya. I haven't had a good constant home connection (until recently) for a good lone time.

26 here.

I'm 21.

Nope, honest.

Well you didn't miss much.

And you can cover all you missed in this thread.

Must be past the kiddies' bed-times or something, this survey usually comes up with the majority of people being about 17.

Next thing you know I will be debating politics with a second grader :tongue:Hey, doesn't Goofballs have a kid? :D

Well you didn't miss much.

Mine's special, because its in the name of science.

I have an essay due in circa 34 hours, what do you think?

I am spreading my love for this thread all over its face.

That can be taken many ways, I like it!

"Is the French Revolution still ongoing", basically.

I was thinking it was much longer for some reason.

Helps you to learn to edit things.

"Is the French Revolution still ongoing", basically.

Id you need to interview someone I can say some outrageous things in a bad french accent!

"Is the French Revolution still ongoing", basically.

sounds easy.

I can speak French, I'd bullshit it.
sounds easy.
Aye the hard bit is neither summing shit up too much or being overly wordtacular.

sounds easy.

Yeah, but one word doesn't comprise an essay unfortunately.

I can speak French, I'd bullshit it.
.

Or you could reference the pink panther movies, they pretty much sum up any french paper.

Helps you to learn to edit things.That would be useful. Thought the position I intend to hold (A very long time from now.) will have someone else writing my speeches for me. Hopefully my speech writer will not be as bad as the current one.

You can't take me anywhere, and if you make another attempt in recent memory, I will call the police.

If more people had that frame of mind.....the world would be a better place.

You don't need to call them they are already here.

Edited for your edit. -_-'

I just realized this thread got 60+ posts in 35 minutes.

Keep it going.

...You're 21? (Sort-of-guessing)

Well, considering the years said 21.whatever

I just realized this thread got 60+ posts in 35 minutes.

Keep it going.That is pretty fast...

Well, considering the years said 21.whateverI missed your edit.

That is pretty fast...

really fast for a generic age thread, but I guess that's why there has been like 2 or 3 of these in the last few years.

People love 'em.

That is pretty fast...

That's two posts per minute. An unsafe speed, in my opinion.

Is that possible? Before we could reach that number, the momentum of the thread would increase to a point where infinite force would be required to move it.

Maybe that's what causes time warps. I haven't seen many recently, but I wouldn't be surprised if this post I'm writing now ends up at the beginning.

Haven't really had them since September 2007, which is what we in the hood call the utter nadir of NSG, server-wise.

We could test that theory with rapid posting.

Gosh, 310, 525 hours, and it seems like only 310, 325, life moves by so fast.

Bullshit, really?Yes, really. I have never even been sick for longer than a period of seven days.

100 posts in an hour. That may be a record for an age thread.

/Yes, really. I have never even been sick for longer than a period of seven days.


You can have a flu for less than seven days. I used to get what I called the weekend flu. Basically i would be sick as a dog..100+ degree temperature, cold sweats, vomiting for 2-3 days then perfectly fine afterwards.

Lest it turn into bird flu when you get it. Happens now and again, sad times.

I've never had the flu for 7 days...Didn't mean the flu. I meant any kind of sickness.

And i thought i rarely ever get sick...

Seriously...more people in the 30+ crowd need to show up and vote. These results are a bit skewed from what they *should* be.

*and by 'should be', I mean what I expect them to be; both from the history of these polls, and the fact that I'm not in the 90th age percentile. I'm not that friggin' old.

Wow im the 5th oldest respondent in the poll. I have underwear older then some of you.

26ish, so I suppose that puts me around the average age of most NSGers, no?

I feel rather owned.

47 going on 47

Seriously...more people in the 30+ crowd need to show up and vote. These results are a bit skewed from what they *should* be.

So you think that if more 30+ people show up and vote that they think the average age of the NS'ers is < 18, the results will change much? :tongue:

Dude, you shouldn't be feeling good about being older it isn't good.

As to how old I am.

I am to old I wish I was younger maybe 18 or 19.

It's only 2k words and I've already done 1,000, s'all good.

Wait a 2000 word essay and you are staying up over night when you have over a day to do it?

That's strange mate, at least leave it till the night before.

If you are doing it over two nights and hardly sleeping during the two days it has to be large. Two semesters ago I had a large anyalysis to do about 25 pages worth, even though we had weeks to do it and the class was given a two week extension I still (for some stupid reason) didn't start it till 2 days beforehand. Didn't go so bad in it either, managed to get 80% for it.

I know plenty of people that do that here. In fact, it's quite common, although my housemate is a prime example of why you shouldn't do that. I can't concentrate on the same task for more than about 5 minutes, so I take a week to do it, more if it's important coursework like I'm doing now. Plus, I can hog the books.

As for my age, I'm 20 in 9 days, woohoo! (as of the 16th)

Trying to get into marginally good habits before my work starts genuinely counting towards my degree and all that.

That's a good point and well done.

Don't do what I did, I started uni planning my assignments and allocating time to subjects to study etc for the first year. By the end of my final semester I was doing subjects the night after they were due* going out partying and getting drunk all the time and basically placing my uni work second mainly because I had enough of uni. So you my friend have a good plan.

*The way it worked for my faculty was that if it said it was due by 5pm Tuesday it wasn't due till 9am Wednesday. If due by 5pm Friday it didn't have to be handed up till 9am Monday.

I wish I was excited about turning 20. I'm actually dreading it.

Not to bring you down or anything but once you turn 20 that's it your over the hill no going back.

Noooooooooooooooooo!

40.

Not to bring you down or anything but once you turn 20 that's it your over the hill no going back.

What, so you can go back before the age of 20?

28, but I feel much older.

Sure, but I am drinking due to depression, so fair warning.
Drinking a depressant will not alleviate your depression......

So you think that if more 30+ people show up and vote that they think the average age of the NS'ers is < 18, the results will change much? :tongue:

Actually results show that the average NSr falls close to where I thought they would. But Most, (not a vast majority at all though) are still teenagers.

*is 20*

21 at the end of January :)

Drinking a depressant will not alleviate your depression......

Maybe he's not depressed, but he's drinking because of THE depression, he wants his favorite providers to stay open.

Seriously though... trust me when I say "Go see a Therapist Wilgrove, it will help muchly"

I'm 20!

I'm 18, turning 19 in January.

I'm 28. I'll be turning 29 in May.

I'm 25.

That surprises me. Really staggers me actually; I had you down for another c.20 year old.

Anyway, I'll be 20 on the 19th March. Between that and my rapidly advancing grey hairs, I'm feeling old.

Twenty-one here.

I'm 18, but according to friends I'm going on 42.

That surprises me. Really staggers me actually; I had you down for another c.20 year old.

Well, thanks if that statement has anything to do with me looking young.

If it's for something else, I'll eat you.:eek2:

23 years of age and still going strong. :)

I think I'm, like, the third or fourth youngest poster. o_0;

Turned seventeen myself, a few days ago.

I'm 21. And alive, which is a miracle at the end of the semester. Perhaps I shall even see 22 ...

I'm 24.

I'm older.

I have a cat older than you.

That's one of the best put-downs I have ever heard! I wish I had been able to employ it while being mugged by some pubescent clowns.

I'm going to get a cat just so I can use it.

As usual, these threads scare me by making me feel old (which, by any sane standard, I am not). :tongue:

NSG just doesn't seem to be reaching that vital 40-44 demographic.

I'm practicing to be a forty-year-old. I figure that in about twenty years, I'll have it down perfectly.

Right now (109 voters), the mean age is ~26.9 years old. The median is in the 20-24 group (probably 23), and the mode is likely in the 13-19 group.

We now return you to your regular posting.

Looks like im the only one.

No, you're not.


40.

HA! I'm older than you are!:p

Wait, why am I bragging about that?:$

19 years young but I've lived more than most (just that I don't have an education and such)

23, And Not getting Younger but i have a good young life ahead of me
Ughhh I have alot of things i could still do that i dident do as a Teenager
to people younger then me

Enjoy your Childhood, make the best of it

Lunatic Goofballs.




















Actually, I'm 35.

I just realized that the poll question is actually "Average age of NSG," not the ages of individuals. That means that at best eighty people are awful at estimating the average age of NSG.

Remarkably honest of you, couldn't you just pretend you had a cat?

The joy would turn to ashes in my mouth, were I lying. (why I'm eating my joy, I'm not entirely clear on)

I can't believe you would be so despicably amoral as to suggest such a thing.:eek2:

No!

More! More!

Tell us about the inter-quartile range, the standard deviation and r squared!

Oh god, stats, oh yeah, oh goddddddddddddd

For the record, the cat is 17 in cat years which means 90+ in human years. So, no matter which way you look at it, he's older than all of us. And, some sense, he's the oldest poster on NS, since those are his eyes in my avatar.

I am 21 years old. Soon 22. I think I'm fairly typical for this board.

Young enough to be "carded" buying wine for Thanksgiving dinner a couple weeks ago by an addle-brained Rite-Aid clerk. How young is that? :p Probably helps that I avoid the sun at all costs - an evil punishment disc in the sky, as they say. :)

What, so you can go back before the age of 20?

You didn't know this?

Actually results show that the average NSr falls close to where I thought they would. But Most, (not a vast majority at all though) are still teenagers.

But almost all still act like teenagers.

i'm 14 and pretty much everyone in my class is and we have to have a nation for interactive history

I wish we had done this back in year 8.

But no we had to play the stockmarket game done through the ASX instead.

I'm 17, average age by the looks of things...
I played the stockmarket game last year through ASX, we didn't get to do anything as awesome as Nationstates, we might have had fun.

I'm 15.

Not nearly as much fun as the Ponzi game.

*looks at poll*

But...

We don't care about the young folks doing what the young folks do.

21 y/o here.

I was much nicer when I was younger... and a lot more ignorant.

Eat or beat?

Eat. *nod*

FWIW, I'm 39.

Am I the only one annoyed that the poll asks us to guess the average age of NSGers, rather than ask our ages so we could figure out the average age?

Uhm.. I am asking your age so that we can figure out the average age for NSG...

Fourteen, by-the-by.

However, the way you've phrase the poll question that's not actually what it asks. You ask "The average age of NS is?" and then the options. This is asking people to pick the average age of NS.

You should have said "What is your age?"

You should have said "What is your age?"

Ahem;

Just curiosity on my part but how old are you?

That's a good point actually, I almost gave a different answer until i remembered the First Post, not a good way to ask for the age of people.
The poll is void, sorry but that's what happens when it asks for the average instead of each of our ages.
oh well what can you do?

Ahem;

Ahem.

*Points at top of page*

"View Poll Results: Average age of NS is?"

Like everyone on NS, I'm 15 anna bit.

First 15 x 1, then 15 x 2, then 15 x 3 ... :D

So that's 15, 30, 45.

*Works out*

ZOMG ur leik 90!

Tcha! It's a sequence, not a sum!

Though it's quite possible that, even at 90, I'll be procrastinating by posting on NS instead of meeting my deadline.

("Deadline" probably means something different at 90, but.)

Tcha! It's a sequence, not a sum!

So you're 45?

("Deadline" probably means something different at 90, but.)

That made me smile.

So you're 45?

I have the feeling she means she has been 15 3 times. In the same way a woman I know once she reached 40 she always said she was 40 every year, and refused to say that she was older than 40.

She could have just restated her age in Martian years, making her 18 at the age of 40. :p

I'm 20. I've been modding NS since I was 15 - actually, now I come to think of it, that's an entire quarter of my life! OH MY GOD. :eek:

20? i had you down as about 30.:eek2:

15, soon to be 16

Whew, I'm glad to see the 20+ overtook the dipshits, no offense.

So you're 45?





Aincha never heard of ellipsis? Besides, you forgot "anna bit".

20? i had you down as about 30.:eek2:

He's prematurely aged by interaction with NS posters. *nod*

oh i see, does that mean we live longer too?

No, it just feels that way (boom-tish!)

So far, most posters are between 20 and 24 with a majority between 20 and 30.
