    Hmm, All Power and No Responibility? Bah. I wish I didn't have so much freaking responibility. That's what happens when you live in the "real" world, you get a bunch of responibility that you don't want. Anyways, DG is very curious to know who's the people in the over 50 bracket. That'd be very good piece of info to know.

    Wow! I haven't check the results for awhile. 7 in 39-55, and 2 are 56+.
    Some of us are more interested than others. ;)

    Maybe this poll has been going for so long that some people have aged sufficiently to move from one bracket to the next! ;)

    Still, it is odd that none of these wise sages have come forth and shown themselves.

    Probably they are wise enough not to waste their time with such nonsense. ;)

    All Power, No Responsibility.

    Being 18 is fun, I love the first few months after a birthday, you feel like you'll be this age forever.

    /me is 15, I just voted, and really shouldn't be dragging this back up.
    I don't like being 15 much, but at least, with my shiny internet connection and loads of free time, I can establish myself as a regular the coming years, before I get to waste my best years in college...
    Oh well, I wouldn't have expected so many gamers to be adults, it's commonly seen as a kids/teens activity - kudos to all you older gamers out there! that's the spirit :thumb:
    I'm hardly hormone-driven in RL though - although I make the most out of being hormone-fueled - game all the day game all nite! and spend the rest @ sorcerers! w00t!
    /me huggles the SP community as a whole.

    OK, I admit it. I'm one of the two in the 56+ group.

    [​IMG] Ah Ha! Finally!!

    I hereby officially turn over my “Old Fart” crown to Madam Nakia Nightshadow. :D

    The fact that she has less than 10% of my post count total is only an indication that she actually has a life. :heh:

    Yeh, we now got this going in two places. Shall we start an "Old Fart" thread?

    Splunge - admit it. You're disappointed that you can no longer proudly call yourself the oldest poster on the BoM.

    Eventually we'll need to re-run this poll because people have started to slip from one category into the next . . . .

    Au contraire, Harbourboy. I'm actually relieved that I can still play games for the next 10+ years knowing that I'm not unique in my age group. :D

    Splunge, I plan on playing games for the next 20+ years. Until I die or they ship me of to "ugh" old peoples home. I will go kicking and screaming. You still hold the title of "oldest regular poster".

    Hmm ... I'm nearly 20.

    Is that a good or bad thing?

    Anyone here remember me when I was just a little irritating whipper snapper? :p

    Hey Sir Bel, if you were to subtract my age from yours and go back to being 15, well 16 officially, you would be the age I was when I first joined SP. Awww isn't that a nice thought? :D :D

    Nakia, wouldn't they allow you to play games in old people's homes? Or would you be forced to play scrabble and be allowed to win all the time and eat scrambed eggs?

    Nakia, I must say, the vision in my mind of a 55-60 year old woman kicking the ones that comes to take her to the retirement home while screaming 'Don't touch my D&D, be careful with that D8!!' brought up a lol or two inside me.
