Is join date any indication of age? (Experiment Inside)
Now I'm sure there are plenty of exceptions, but I think for the most part, the older the account the older the person is behind that account.
Now an old account, imo, is 2006 or older. Many would argue 04 or bust.
I'd like to get an experiment going if enough members participate
I'm 26. Join date 07
[b]Join Date vs Average Age[/b]
2002 - 32
2003 - 23
2004 - 23.5
2005 - 24.8
2006 - 21.5
2007 - 19.2
2008 - 19.4
2009 - 19.2 ( With 49 year old member) [b](18.2 W/O)[/b]
2010 - 17.2
2011 - 14.3
2012 - 19 (Based on 3 members)
Now remember, there are exceptions. This will [b]not[/b] be specific to every user.
So don't get butthurt ;)

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] elmicker What I'd like to know is how the ages of new users has changed, if at all, over time. The correlation between age and account age is all but inevitable, but from a demography point of view looking at how the age at which people get involved with b.net has evolved alongside the games is far more interesting.[/quote] Agreed. And I also think that would be something Bungie, as a company would be interested in as well. You should take the challenge. OP updated

I'm 15 and I joined mid-2009.

I would say your scale is semi-accurate for myself seeing as I am 16 and I first started posting on Bnet in 09. I just use this account instead of my old one so dont be fooled by my join date.
-
A good way to find is find the average age of meber when they first join.

There are hundreds of thousands of members on this website. There is no way you'll ever get an accurate assessment.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Qbix89 Haha, Recon is going to -blam!- these stats up![/quote] I would argue that Slayer would mess these stats up even more :P OT: I'm 22 and joined in 2005.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] HappyMeals 49. I guess I'm an outlier.[/quote]You don't count Happy. You're 4.5 standard deviations from the mean.

My join date matches, but I'd been checking stats without an account since 07.
-
Pretty accurate results. Bravo.
