    I was stunned Thylo could be so young! With his vast knowledge and experience, I imagined him looking like an old-fashioned professor, complete with tweed and pipe!

    It seems almost half of posts here are from women, but they represent a much lower per engage of members. Why are the gents taking the poll and not posting?!

    If that was your image of me you might want to sit down before finding out how old @lintworm really is! :D

    Male, 30 since last week. Given that 30 is the change point I didn't know for sure in which category to put myself, but I voted for 30-50, even if I only just got to 30.

    I'm surprised there are so many people under 20. Always got the impression that this site skewed a little older.

    It seems in the fantasy forum (which doesnt interact with the rest of the forum as much) it's mainly young people.

    My impression is that most people who make a user on here are kids/teenagers (often of the "I wanna start my own zoo and I know just how to do it" kind), but often their excitedness has worn off after a month or so, leaving them to never be heard from again, so those who become permanent fixtures are mostly adults - and teenagers with slightly more realistic worldviews.

    That seems to be a fairly accurate observation from what I have seen as well.
