45.  Just got bifocals. 

And get off my lawn!  :P

45 and getting my bifocals tomorrow.

I feel old.

My co-workers say it's about time I stop wearing two pairs of glasses.

I say, "Wearing two pairs at the same time makes me quirky.  Wearing bifocals makes me old." :P

Ahh well.   :roll:

To quote a colleague even older than I, "Old is good!"   I think it beats the alternative.  ;)   While I'm not thrilled about the physiological aspects of aging much past the early 30s, I still enjoy getting older.  Re: bifocals, you might consider graduated lenses; either way, they do take a while to get used to from single vision glasses.  Good Luck!

I'm 56!   ;)

Hey, if Jane and I call ourselves MILF's will it make us more sexy?

My age? Well, Don't Panic folks...I'm always sure to bring a towel. You could say my age is an answer. THE answer in fact, to life, the universe, and everything.

Now, what was the question? ;)

As for "growing up", I have a few quotes for that...

4th Doctor: "There's no point in being grown-up if you can't be childish sometimes!"

Amy Pond: "I grew up."
11th Doctor: "Don't worry, I'll soon fix that."

Ok first off I am on Reddit waaaaaaaaaay too much apparently as I keep looking for the upvote. Second I am 31 and my girls were still a bit young to play really but they loved watching me and are sad they can't watch me play my superhero anymore
.                              Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination. Take a look and you'll see into your imagination.

                                       We'll begin with a spin, traveling in the world of my creation. What we'll see will defy explanation.

            If you want to view paradise simply look around and view it. Anything you want to, do it. Wanta change the world? There's nothing To it.

I wouldn't use the word "replace," but there's no word for "take over for you and make everything better almost immediately," so we just say "replace."

You know, if I'd known that many players were 'over a certain age' I would have teamed more often than I did: I was always 'ticklish' about it because of the ridiculous frequency and urgency with which I often had to call for 'bio break'  :roll:

I just think it's indicative of our playerbase. Those who are under 18 are much less likely to be as attached to this game as we are. They'd just move on. They wouldn't be here with us.

While I know that there were plenty of younger players in game, it isn't hard to believe CoH has a higher-than-average age for MMOs. :)

I am not persuaded that the Under 18 players had less attachment or devotion.  At minimum, two wrote on a private SG forum about how much City of Heroes and the SG had meant to them.  I think it's because few under age 18 are interested in reading and posting to forums.

Besides just the kids, I know of plenty of adults who soon after 8/31 went looking for another MMORPG to provide an experience similar to what they'd enjoyed in CoH.  Most are still looking....
