You're too old to be here, opinions?

So I recently had some thread posts and PM's with some younger members about being too old to be on this site. Personally I think the demographic for Halo is older than teenager but I'd like to hear from the community about age on B.net? Also for reference I am 36 and here's some recent gamer age statistics from Australia - [quote]Average age for an Australian gamer is now 32...

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ChorrizoTapatio I don't think you're ever too old to play games or post on b.net. But I think that you can be too young..[/quote] Well said. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Verachi Times have changed, no age is too old for video games or Bungie.net. It's going to start getting weird once my B.net account's age is older then new members real age ;,,,,,;[/quote] I read an article about this sort of thing years ago and it was going on about how a 12 year old can lead a team of middle age players in a Halo game. This sort of idea is weird and entertaining at the same time.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Geegs30 There are a few old timers here. Obviously mostly of the H3ITWP folks are older. Bungie is an older company, they have plenty of legacy customers, people that have been playing their games for decades. [/quote] *waits for older gamer group to startup... I know I've been playing since around Myth & Marathon so that gets my Bungie age way past Halo CE days.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MasterSin LOL! YOu're never too old for video games, most of my friends are older than 25 and the oldest of my friends is 40 and he is not the only one I know, I personally don't think you need a certain age to be in a forum or play video games of any kind.[/quote] Glad to hear it. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BlackHeaven There's no age limit to enjoy games. The guys and girls making them are older than us(some of us) and we're all allowed to enjoy them. I'm 18, been on here since I was 13. I honestly think 17+ is my desired demographic. There are exceptions of course. Halo is deep, and what Bungie does it incredible. Anyone who appreciates it deserves to be here. [/quote] It will be interesting to see Bungie's new game(s) and the demographic they aim for. Will we see M15+, R18+ or PG13 etc?
