Found a few older than me at 53 but curious how it breaks down.

47 - there was a semi regular group I used to play on at one point where I was the youngest.

Fulcrum

39.   I got all my 'grindey' MMO fix with MUDS and Everquest in the day. 

While I often went off to look at the 'new shiney', I always migrated back to CoH before too many months passed.

I didn't even know we had the ability to make polls... huh...

I'm 21.

Triplash

I turned 35 in October. And of the people I talked with often enough to find out stuff like age, it was a pretty even mix from high school students right up to grandparents.

I'll be 54 next month. And of the few people that have mentioned their age while I was teamed with them, I've encountered several older than I, including one in their 60s.

Clave Dark 5

46 here.  I remember threads on the forums with comments from people in the 50s and 60s, maybe your poll shouldn't have topped out at "45+"?

By a year...   ;D

I'm really not sure about the basis of this poll. I've played 6 MMOs since 2004, and in every single one of them I found plenty of older gamers (40-60+) and the claims that "this game/guild really caters to a more mature player base."

I have a feeling that the poll will be skewed a bit high because the young folk wouldn't have come here, they are likely already off playing another game and not commiserating here.

I'm 50 BTW.

Some of us older folks are doing both :D

BTW, I was so happy to see you here, FXmas! *thumbsup* You were one of the posters I was going to miss most!

It seems as though us 20-somethings are a rare breed here at Titan!

Dispari

Technically I was in a lower age group when I started playing.

OK, I will admit it. After playing so many Male & Female characters, so many Young & Old, I am really a 56 year old Male. But I played with the Heart of a Lion.

Anyone with a problem I will meet in the Monkey cage. :-)

Flamazing Sally

Just got varifocals here :)

Perfidus

27 here. Was 26 at the time of the announcement. I routinely would play and RP with those older than me. The oldest person I directly interacted with on a consistent basis was 45, but I knew some others who were older.
