Interested in the age demographic here

Hi all,

I'm an oldie (nearly 50) and was wondering what kind of age group this hobby tends to gravitate towards. I'm thinking this might be a 20-40 age range with a few outliers, but I'd be really interested to hear your ages if people are willing to post them here?

Interesting, nice granular one with loads of participants. The average is about the 32 there and dropping off significantly at 50.

An earlier 2013 one averaged at about 26. Feeling positively ancient :D

If it helps you at all, my body and mind is already falling apart regardless of the fact I was born in 1990

Hmmm, I doubled the count in my age group in darkcruix's poll by clicking just once; that can't be good even if I did understand the math.

I just turned 44 last month.

I'm definitely feeling a bit old, especially since i just got the 2nd pfizer shot yesterday and now my body is totally wrecked.

I'm glad someone's laughing at me feeling old at 50. Last time in my life that's going to happen, better savour it :D

It won't be too terribly long until I join kbdfr in the over-70 club.

I wonder how the age distribution would be if it was weighted by the number of posts from each user.
Many of the most active users are 40+ y/o ... and others you thought were just as old, and then you find out they are in their early 20's.
