    I just made the realization that there are now users on ZooChat who are younger than the site itself. That means, there are people on here now who have never lived in a world without the ZooChat.

    Shudders

    :eek:

    For me it would be being older than the Internet since I've only been on zoo chat for about 2 years, maybe almost three. I don't know. And I'm not much older than the Internet.

    Some even younger. Oddly, the youngest like telling us how young they are.

    I can't remember how old I am, but I'm the 17th-longest-member. Wait, that sounded rude. Of the members who have been here the longest, I am in 17th place. 3332 days.

    :p very young age. I started planing for my zoo, since my early age maybe 7 years old (I was making a zoo from toys), and ever since my plans are constantly changing (reducing size and number of species, more younger you are, more optimist you are). I started planing a zoo (15 years old) with 250 species of birds, 130 species of mammals!, now I plan zoo with only about 10 species of mammals and 15 species of birds (and 15 spp. of reptiles). I am 27 now.

    Lol I assume because as you get older you start to get more realistic? Also why is being younger than zoochat a bad thing?

    Yes as you get older you become more realistic.

    I can't answer the second question, I don't think it is a bad thing, it can even be advantage since you have opportunity to read all this things from your early age.

    Fun fact; technically speaking by admitting that you have given us grounds to ban you ;)

    That said, if we banned everyone who signed up ignoring the 13-year age qualification this would be a rather quieter forum!
