                    What is your age?
The original thread is quite old and not updated, so I decided (for information's sake) to create a new thread with a poll.

Wow, it's great to see some older folk! I never really played MMORPGs before so my assumption was that most people i ever chatted with were pretty young...which is probably why I henched my way through the majority of all campaigns. Funny thing is that GW is a kind of secret life for me in sense that none of my friends know that I play. It's a great escape from stress and a good cool-down from my morning exercise. Well, I also like to kill virtual dummies too! XD

                    The results are kind of interesting.
Despite what political fundamentalists are always spouting, the average consumer age group for video games in America is in the 25-30 range.
I wonder if GW itself has a younger than average player base, or if this (admittedly tiny, so far) sampling is skewed by the average age of someone reading the forums regularly.
Regardless, I just barely missed the last category, so I guess I'm not old yet!

                    My original guess was right...A good number of the gw community isn't even able to legally buy a pack of cigarettes.

                    I was expecting more from the 18-21, PVP in general seems to be packed with students.

                    22.  Just graduated university with my honours thesis completed.
I may be in the highest demographic for computer games at this age, but I tell you, trying to find time to play is incredibly hard. What with uni, and actually having a social life, I've had the game for two years but have only played just under 800 hours of the game in general...

                    Personally, I think the 14-17 category should've been split further, perhaps 12 and under, 13-14, 15-16, 17-18, 19-22, etc. This would skew the results since it's not evenly distributed, but the difference between a 14-year old and a 17-year old is a -major- one, in my opinion.
That said, 15 going on 16.

                    19.  The results are going to be off though. Most college students probably won't vote.  Voting isnt cool dont you know? Just look at the last election xD.

"Pinball Wizard II" here. Dumped a LOT of quarters into pinball machines, back when the dinosaurs walked the world. Probably even "bought" a couple of "Space Invaders" machines along the way. "Pong" anyone? Still have around 50 Atari games in the closet as well as the console.
Will probably be buried with game controler in hand.

I know what you mean. I've only played about 230 over the last nine months, according to the age check I just did (and over half of that is on my ele). I did take a three-month break, though.
