I hate to say it, but I liked the breakdown before the poll changed. Right now, the weight is in the middle. If you put the top three age groups back together, it's more graphically top-heavy.

So...you're saying the poll has the classic "middle age spread," hmmm???   ???

Does this survey make me look fat? The server adds like 10 pounds.

There is a block of 18 years at the beginning, and a block of 'X years (averaging about 20 for first-world countries)' at the end. The whole thing is appropriately granular now.

Being an 8.5 year vet, I was a lot younger when I started playing.  :roll: 
Conveniently, the 36->45 range covered it all.   ;D
I'll be 46 in a couple of weeks.   8)

27 here (28 in January). I was 19 and in college when I first picked up the game. So much has changed since then - but the City was always there when I needed a break.

Youngest I ever teamed with were sisters, ages 9 and 12...they played better than a lot of older people! (Used their mom's boyfriend's account.) The oldest person wa a 74 year old woman who was SO funny, she kept me laughing the whole time we were team mates.
Listen to the 'mustn'ts'. Listen to the 'don'ts'. Listen to the 'shouldn'ts', the 'impossibles', the 'won'ts'. Listen to the 'you'll never haves', then listen close to me... Anything can happen . Anything can be.

24. Really surprised at the results - I figured most MMO players were teenagers/college kids!

(I think every team I ever played on had at least one person getting kicked off by their kids or spouse though... I guess this explains it.)

City of Heroes was not like most MMOs. Therefore, it drew in all kinds of people.

That is to say, it was almost like the game was in a category of it's own.

It's also possible that the younger set can move on faster than the older folks (which I'm one of, older that is).

I'm 27 but I already feel like a 50 year old, given that graphic. XD

I still get the references on SNL, but that's largely due to the amount of time I spend on the internet.

Most of the players are teenager / 20 yos. But those who care the most and stick with what they love, hence are on the Titan Network to answer this poll, are older. Just look how socially acceptable dumping a girl/boyfriend, or divorcing is acceptable and usual now.

I've turned 25 yesterday, and I'm feeling 40...
Yeeessss....
