I am 34 so I bet someone can beat that ? Or can they
Sorry, I think the oldest ones are into their late 50s and 60s around here, WH1TE-T1GERESS. And somewhere out there is a toddler hinching up his or her nappies, and answering quantum physics questions in GQ.
Ice Wolf – vintage, 1963.
I’m 61.
Beat that in which direction?
The mid-thirties is probably just about middle-range for this board. There are posters who are in their teens, even in their early teens, like for instance this guy “Mercutio” is said to be only 15. (Hard to believe–I’ve read some of his stuff.)
I have the impression that there are tons of posters in their 40s and 50s, and probably also a few in their 60s and 70s.
So folks like us would be an average, or perhaps a median.

I could have sworn that I read somewhere that Speaker for the Dea is but a mere pup at the age of 13. Of course, that was some time ago, so he may be 14 now.
Uh, that should have read Speaker for the Dead.

Tho’ she did use her dad’s userid.
I might fit in here, I’m 14.
i’m 13.i have the 'feeling that there has to be a 10yr old somewhere here
Also straddling the median…
I believe this board is restricted to ages 13 or older. Of course, it’s not like they’re checking ID’s at the door.
That is correct, Little Nemo. If we find anyone under that age posting here, we’ll remove privileges for that account.
Oh Crap!!!
I guess I’m getting banned.
My brother alloran was 12 when he registered. I found out, and knowing that there are rules against this sort of thing, checked in ATMB to find out that yup, same rules apply here.
He’s 13 now, but I’m not in any particular hurry to let him crawl back until he poses on threat of embarassing me on here:)
[sub]I do that well enough by myself![/sub]
Older than Ice Wolf, but younger than LouisB. A couple more years and I’ll be old enough for the senior’s dicount.
I guess I fall below the median, toward the younger side of things. I check in at the ripe old age of 21. Sometimes I feel 50, other times I feel 10, so 21 seems like a good age for me.
The oldest 21 year old on the planet…

23 now, so guessing I’m on the younger end of the spectrum for this board. Just a couple of years ago I felt the need to go into long explanations and disclaimers about my age, feeling the need to convince other people that I didn’t really “feel my age” (maybe this was in reaction to always ending up dating men who were twice my age). Now I’m just content to be the age I am, and feeling less discriminatory against other young folks.
I turn 59 next month. Younger than LouisB, but the oldest female here, I think.
I’m 15. I turn 16 in December.
62 here.
