Poll: How old are you?

[Tranka Verrane]

I'm interested in the average age of the Escapist reader, particularly in this forum. Some, if not most, of the comments made seem so racist, sexist, homophobic and generally intolerant that they would make a lot more sense if they were being posted by children. I'd like to find out therefore if people are actually physically immature or just mentally so.

Update:
This was somewhat of a troll post to get this thread going, but I stand by the some. I also noticed an error in the poll in that 18 was in there twice. Attempting to rectify but it's screwing up the poll.

Thanks

Are you seriously saying that people here are immature? This is one of the best places I know of for a serious discussion on the internet. Your description seems apt for 4chan and the like, but people here seem to be mostly mature and I have read many interesting debates on here.

I'm 15 by the way.

26 and I have barely seen these racist/sexist/homophobic comments.

 

[Sassafrass]

I'm the grand old age of eighteen.

In my two months here, I have only seen one example of such comments.

On topic, I'm 15.

People always seem surprised when I inform them of this.

You sure this is the forum you're thinking of?

I must have blinked and missed it.

I am 26, and feel way too old to be here, but I am a gamer and will say this is the best gaming site I've been a member of.

I thought you were twenty something.

May I ask what gave you that impression?

You have sunglasses.
Edit: I mean your avatar has them.
BTW, I'm 16.
And It seems OP hates little kids. Why?

 

[StuddedZombie]

21 almost 22

which is basically at the peak of childhood to adulthood.

Ah yes, the sunglasses.

Maybe he had a bad experience?

you must have very limited choice in the threads you open if your experience of them is that bad.

 

[Mcupobob]

Two months?
Wow, I've been here longer than you and I've only done about 600 posts.

Also, practically no one is racist homophobic or sexist so I'm thinking you have the wrong forum.
