Maybe this thread should have been "How old were you when you joined DV?"
Ancient as the cosmos
After being on this forum for some time now, I've found out that most of you guys are actually grown-ups, which really surprised me for some reason (probably because I'm used to be in forums with people at my own age). So, I'm writing this post to find out how old people are on this forum. I'm turning 16 in about a month, what about you guys?
Hey HansiElneff :mrgreen:
There's actually a pretty popular thread for members to post their age, it has a poll too: http://www.dreamviews.com/lounge/872...thread-27.html
By the way, I love your avatar, so pretty (*o*)
Ah okay, thanks for the link and the compliment on my avatar ^^
Yeah, well that thread is from 2009. I was 16 when I voted in that thread but now I'm two weeks away from 22.

@ hansiElneff
your post is now merged into this thread
I think we should create a new official age thread and start the poll over. Since I voted, I've moved one tier down so my vote should really be in 19-23. Hell, I'm even halfway through to the next tier again. Besides, it just feels weird that the first many many pages are full of members who either left or were banned. This thread isn't active. People just keep digging in the grave.
Yaaaay mom, I finally made the top 2%!!!
So over the years, DV attracts more 15-18 year-olds. That, or 15-18 year olds vote more. I'm not even sure how to interpret the stats in here anymore.
At some point we should probably just make another age thread, since all this one is good for now is catching the occasional underage member who admits their age :chuckle:
Theoretically, every day someone crosses over to next age group. So an ongoing age poll doesn't make much sense, since data is fluid.
What would make sense is a poll reflecting age at time of joining DV. Maybe age when you got your first LD, how long from first LD to registering on DV, how long did someone lurk before registering...
Then everybody can just post his current age. Even if that changes, we have a time stamp on the post so can deduct current age as time goes.
28.
I'm 22.
Jesus, I'm 20 now.. I joined this site 5 years ago!!
32, I'm too old for this shit. :tongue:
Still 23, my favourite number.
Recently turned 21, which means I have no restrictions in the US :rolllaugh: the age for everything in Australia is 18. Going back to the states soon so yaaayyyy
After seeing this thread, apparently too old to be hanging around here......time for me to hit the road.
"The older the violin, the sweeter the music!" There are some of us way off towards the right of that admittedly highly-young-skewed curve, and doing pretty well in dreaming practice, so if you love dreaming, I'd advise sticking around, DV is the best site on the internet for LD info and community.
I'm creeping up on 25 very soon now. When I first voted in the poll I was 19, so I definitely think it's time to make a new thread/poll if we want an accurate representation.
Also,
23 is my favorite number too. It's the day of the month I was born on, same with my sister who was born exactly 4 and a half years before me. It happens to be the day of the month a lot of the people I know were born on too.
Bunch of kids on here lol, I'm an ancient 41
When I joined, I was an 18-year old in the prime of my life. Now, I am 26 years old, and the stresses of adult life have weakened my poor muscles and made my bones brittle. Another reason for that could be that I gained 40 pounds by being a lazy slob.
Who knows.
Just turned 33. I'm too young for this shit. You people are too mature for me. :bang:
