How old is everybody? I always wonder if we got some geezers in here

[Rauten]

38

Been gaming for about 3 decades now, and no plans to stop anytime soon.

[RasmusDC]

43. soo started with wierd consoles (not NES/SEGA) C64, Amiga 500, 386 / 486 / pentium..

 

Cutting the soft cased floppy disc 5 1/4 inch to get more space on it, running amiga with dual disc drives.

 

Not really a console boy, always pc. when MB´s where big storage, and you had to choose if you wanted to run a game in Tandy/SXGA/VGA or whatever, and choose is sound was soundblaster or something else.

 

Still build computers, tinker with al kinds of stuff, build keyboards, just a giant nerd.

Some people in here really like to go...

 

"Back in my day".... Or "Get off my lawn"!!!. Let's do a survey. Who we got here in the forums?? I feel like there are some 10yr old Gen Zers with some of the posts we get.

 

Anyways, I am 27M

17 (almost 18 this year) M

 

PS : I transformed into a hecking chonker due to 2 years of pandemic, so I feel like I am 30 because everything hurts if I try to do anything physically slightly intensive ! (But I have started going on walks and jogging to try and reduce weight)

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but if you are under 18, you are not allowed to disclose your age. We've had a couple of these over the years and I feel like anything under 18 was deleted.

It's under 16, but the rule talks about personally identifiable information, and age isn't personally identifiable information, I think.

 

 

 

As for me, well I'm between 15 and 20   : )

My nephews are 15 and 12. They call me boomer all the time.

[Ravendarat]

I turned 40 in December. So Im definitely over the average age on this forum.

[chrome_wheels]

I'm 39 years old.

[jones177]

I am 68. 

I came over on the boat so a true dinosaur and a real Boomer.

 

The boat.

[Satan_Prometheus]

34, but I didn't get into PCs until I was in my mid-20s so I don't have any cool stories about building my first PC with a Pentium MMX or anything.

Core 2 Duo E4700

(took me a while to find a CPU precisely as old as I am, 8 days off was as close as I could get)

[WhitetailAni]

Old enough where delivering a friend in a box to their math class is socially acceptable.

[BetteBalterZen]

Old enough for Halo: Combat Evolved to make me scared when walking home from a friend, on the same road as me, only 8 houses down haha. It was night tho, so don't laugh!

33 dying of slow onset Parkinson's.

This is from trying to get Gen Z to stop being so weak at work.

Lose more of your mind with how stupid some of them are.

 

 

-K Boomer.

 

 

[adamblastia]

Yep! Brand-new here and 63 years old!  Class of '76.  Moved back to the old town, and the old house, around Y2K.  Mom's 86 and has total dementia and Dad's 90 and seems, most of the time, sharp as the proverbial LTTstore.com tack. He is, however, completely impossible to share a DVR with. 

-ascii smiley-

 

[teal'c voice] I must, indeed, be getting quite old. I'm starting to like A Little Night Music more than Sweeney Todd.  Ah, Liaisons. . . zzzz. . . .

 

Optimal number of weeks watching Linus, Jay & Steve before attempting first build: obviously more than three. I just wasn't ready.

[Sprawlie]

41. 

 

Get off my lawn.

 

Also the dementia really sucks

[Fluph]

46m and no intentions of growing up.
Also have a 4 year son so I get to play with lego / transformers / and hang out at parks (without the odd looks I used to get ..... )

First Computer was a ZX81 and first online game I played was BF1942!

The real sign of aging is not a body ache or illness but when looking at blue LED lights becomes more difficult. That's why I hate anything with blue LEDs like microwave ovens.

[IPD]

As the sign in my office reads:

 

"I'm at that age where my mind still thinks I'm 29.  My sense of humor indicates I'm 12.  And my body mostly keeps asking if I'm sure I'm not dead yet."
