My anti-negativity post: Forum age poll!

edited June 2014 in MPQ General Discussion
Just to have a little fun and a little something to get us out of the negative spiral of posts regarding veterans leaving and cheating accusations (though the one bright spot out of all that are Twysta's memes), I thought that it'd be interesting to get a sense for how old us collective forum goers are. My sense is that we skew older, with many of us married and with kids.

Whatever the age, I really appreciate the community, even though we are in a bit of a rough patch. Twysta please find a meme that can capture this warm and fuzzy moment. icon_lol.gif

    I've always been somewhat surprised by how high ages have been when I've interacted with people from the forum. I often feel like the really young one...in my mid-20s.

    Doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

    Mobile gaming (outside of MPQ grinding!) tends to cater more for people who don't have the time for more traditional video games - parents, full-time workers, etc. - so the age group would tend to skew a little older. But I also know plenty of people in their 30's like me who enjoy console gaming icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Just landed into that 31-40 category as of 1.5 months ago, but married with 2 kids put me there in spirit long ago anyway.

    Why can't I select more than 1 option?

    I'm one of the very few 'under 25', I feel young again!

    Late 20's here. MPQ appealed to me initially because I could do it on the go and it didn't require all that much time. Those days are gone, lol.

    Congratulations! My kid is 5 mos old but I swear I have been regressing as I get older. According to my wife I act out more than our baby sometimes. icon_mrgreen.gif

    That was my oversight, my IQ is less than 185.

    Not entirely sure what the Kleenex part means, but I meant I'm the youngest here. Out of diapers a whole year!

    Sorry, Kleenex is a mark for handkerchief ! My bad. And you know it's for tinykitty your tinykitty...nevermind...
    In fact I was thinking you were ironic...And were one of the 2 who clicked on the 75+ years old...that's why I said that.

    One whole year without diapers...congrats ! icon_lol.gif

    Edit : I know this is not represent the overall of MPQ players...but 50% of 31-40 years stunned me a lot !
    I was thinking our Alliance was the only one in this middle age...actually a lot more than expected.
    Hope your poll will be stickied soon or later on !

    Hrmmm... I fit right in with the median age of the forum crowd. Who knew?

    That said.... I wanted to select the "I come onto the forums just to complain" obtain so much.... icon_twisted.gif

    Well... I had to select the 31-40 age as, I am right now. But in August, then I'll be part of the next group as I'll be 41. Makes me feel old being around all you youngin's! Lol
