Out of curiosity, what is the main age range for the people that frequent these boards? (Due to a mistake on my part, the teen range is incorrect. It's 13-17, NOT 11-17.)

Yet another recurring topic.

How exactly does teen end at eighteen? And why does adulthood arbitrarily start at 21? Why are all "adults" lumped together at 22? —Alorael, who thinks the three most populous categories (so-called teen, young adult, and adult) really could have used a few more categories, particularly that absurdly large last one.

i think you should have split adult into 2 groups for the graduate student college group and us really old adults that skew the average age up a year or two. Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00 |

You know, I got yelled the last time I tried to dispute the wording of a poll. In my case, the wording was actually open to interpretation, in this case, Nioca made arbitrary number selections. Why are you trying to argue against number selections? Why are there so many hypocrites here? -------------------- You lose. Posts: 2156 | Registered: Thursday, August 24 2006 07:00 |

quote:Please name said hypocrites and give references to board postings. Also, you were not "yelled at" for having a different interpretation. People disagreed with you and said that the intent of the poll was more toward your definition of antagonist. Discussion about what makes a good villain insued. In this case, people are speculating about a more representative demographic poll. In the villain poll, people were saying that antagonist by your definition was more representative. I really do not see the hypocracy here. * * * Also, I agree, the Adult category should probably be more refined as should be Teen. -------------------- Your flower power is no match for my glower power!

quote:Groundlessly calling people names is a violation of the CoC, for sure. However, Stareye is an admin and probably would not advise you to do that. Here's what he actually said. quote:I've bolded the part that makes it no longer a violation of the CoC. Unfortunately, you seem to have forgotten that part.

About age range, I guess Nioca is implying that anybody over 22 is too old to be playing these games. :) quote:We are talking about physical age here, not mental age. :P -------------------- Be careful with a word, as you would with a sword, For it too has the power to kill.

Also, as stated, you already called unnamed board members hypocrites, I'm asking for specifics -- for you to justify your claim that you already made. -------------------- Your flower power is no match for my glower power!
