Age Group (POLL RESTARTED 12/9 - PLEASE VOTE AGAIN!)

[Perfidus]

Voted again.

[dwturducken]

I'm 47 (48 shortly), although I have a mental age in my mid 20's  8)

I miss CoH .....

So, what you're saying is that you're 47 and a half?

Restart!

(Also, at this stage, the graph looks like a rude gesture...)

[Merseine]

right now with the numbers that are being reported, it looks like the poll is giving us the finger.   :P

[Tivomaniac]

Thanks for restarting with more ranges.  It only let me do 5 when I set it up.  You added the ranges I would have done from the start.

48 in January.

Time marches on I'm afraid  :P

[Samuel Tow]

I voted in the poll again. I checked, and I'm still 28. You know, just to make sure.

[corvus1970]

Re-voted :)

[Tubbius]

33.  I look a good deal younger when I shave and get a haircut, frequently being mistaken for being either in high school or my early 20s at times like that.  Otherwise, I'm told that I "read" a lot older from the folks who know me online.

So take that as you will.  :)

[Ironbull]

35 here.  But when I was playing I felt a hell of a lot younger.  Guess it brings out the youth in all of us.  Well, except the ones who are already errr youthfull and stuff.

[QuantumHero]

Voted and yes I noticed that there were a lot of women playing, a lot of couples playing, a lot of families wit children playing, a lot of older folks playing.  Its the same idiotic mistake I have seen over and over in tv series cancellation.  The show *has* a demographic but not the one the big wigs want <growl>.  Embrace your community the world does *not* revolve around 20 something men.

[johnrobey]

Voted again. Sadly, I didn't get any younger.

Heh, good joke, Triplash.  I also added myself to the polling data.

[Aleksandros]

One of the older folks in my SG here - 9 years in Everquest where Aleksandros was "born", 4.5 years in CoH.

[Thirty-Seven]

I voted in the poll again. I checked, and I'm still 28. You know, just to make sure.

Oh to be 28 again... I just turned 30.  :P

[srmalloy]

My Tibby-sense tingling also detects that CoH seemed to have a higher ratio of female-to-male players than other MMO's - is this true or just my personal impression?

I wouldn't necessarily say that CoH had a higher ratio of female players to male players, since unless you're on Teamspeak or Ventrilo you can claim to be male or female and there's no real way to tell (aside from the old joke about "maxed breast slider = male player"...). However, what I think was true about CoH was that women playing the game were more comfortable about admitting their gender, as opposed to other games where I've read accounts of women claiming to be men because of the harassment and attitude they got from other players if they admitted they were female. I didn't see players being treated differently because of their gender or age, except on the occasions when a team member would say that another team member was their (typically under 10) child and asked us to avoid overt crudity -- and I don't recall anyone ever objecting to that, either... and the kid would rarely need any help keeping up with the team.

Quiet, you!  ;)

[Septipheran]

I am 23. Most of my COH friends are/were somewhere between the mid-twenties and mid-thirties I believe. I appreciated the older and more mature player base that this game had.

Get off my lawn!

;D

When I was playing it made me feel older. :P

[mikoroshi]

Bitter old man with bad teeth and smoker's cough at the ripe age of 29, here.

[dwturducken]

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.
