I bought this game 2 weeks ago and i can't leave it alone. Pretty much what's happening to everybody i suppose.
What's less obvious is that i'm 43, married with 3 kids - 2 of them also GW.

So, I just wondered if there are other players out there that are my age.

Don't be shy guys and post replies to this thread. Maybe we can create a guild together...

Nope, I'm only 21. But you can bet your bottom dollar that I'd be just as addicted if I was your age

My dad though, is almost 60 and is, has been and always will be an avid gamer ever since we got the NES when I was 4 *nostalgia*

Not 43 but I am 41, married with two teenagers. I also am hooked on this game. It is the first online game that I have ever played that I enjoyed. It is nice to not have all those foul mouthed 'elite' punks playing, and it is also nice not having the PKers to deal with. I played City of Heros for a couple of months and it was fun, but it is a lot more fun playing knowing that I am not coughing up $15 a month to play! This game is truely amazing.

Beauty of the games is when you make the women realize its either spend hours on the computer playing games , or hours at the bar spending money .

Oh, and I'm 23, still saving / paying off debts, working in my cubical, with a girlfriend who loves the fact that I have my methods of saving. LoL.

I'm 40, somedays feel more like 140, have 3 kids. My oldest son has a family of his own, my youngest son leaves for the Army on June 30th, and my 16 yr old daughter just started learning to drive (I strongly suggest keeping your pets indoors). I have always been into gaming. I describe myself as an insomniac who grew up in arcades. I too, am addicted to this game. Although I am trying to balance my time between this and beta testing Dungeon Siege 2 right now.

32 Married with a brand new baby girl.
My wife has been extremely understanding about my GuildWars time to date hofully that will continue

On a side note My guild (Furniture Liberation Army) currently comprises of "older" people with lives and as a result we tend to be casual players. If that sounds about right to you post here or send Sam Katha a whisper in game and I'll sign you up. We are not very big yet but we are working on it.

This isn't the best place for guild recruitment so I have started a new thread here...
