average TFP member age... curious - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

~springrain · 06-01-2003, 05:43 AM

Hello everyone!

Some days... as i sit and read the board... i see posts such as "i still live with my parents"... or "i can't do such and such because of school"... and i realize how OLD i am!

well... not really... i DO feel that age is a matter of how you FEEL, and how you ACT... not the number of years you've walked the planet...

but, i have been wondering... what is the average age of the TFP members?

i am currently 36… *gasp*… and Willow is a whopping 49 years old (step back folks, i have a fire extinguisher for that cake)

anyone else?

ninety09 · 06-01-2003, 07:05 AM

I'm 32, but people think I'm 22. I guess all those years in college had some kind of positive impact on my youthfulness. I feel like I'm in the prime of my life right now. Seems like I'm reliving the college years I never had. =>

~springrain · 06-01-2003, 02:36 PM

i agree with that statement... like i said... i believe that age is a truly a state of mind... and has very little to do with the number of years you've walked the planet...

the year that i was 29... i was 29 going on 49... life was difficult... everything seems larger than life and i was so TIRED all the time... seven years later and feel younger now then i did then...

though i will say that my body has seemed to get less and less forgiving as the years go by *soft laugh*
... in that regard... youth is definately wasted on the young... *soft laugh*... or at least i wasted mine then...

looking forward to seeing more on the poll... thanks all!

49... soon to be 50, and officially "older than dirt"... *broad smile*
gotta love

raeanna74 · 06-01-2003, 03:16 PM

I'm 29 and Hubby Dei37 just turned 26 last week.

G_Whiz · 06-01-2003, 03:33 PM

<--- 55 here

There are 5 of us that listed our age at 50+, but for some reason I'm the only one who's posted a comment. I guess I'm supposed to be hiding the fact that I'm older than dirt.

Actually, age doesn't make a lot of difference unless you let it. There are somethings you can't avoid, but brain-lock isn't one of them.

greytone · 06-01-2003, 03:42 PM

36 and rapidly approaching 37. These results are very much in line with a similar thread on TFP v 3.0.

I agree that age matters sometimes here. A few times I have read a post that mentions an age and suddenly understood other posts by the same member.

juanvaldes · 06-01-2003, 03:46 PM

Zooksport2 · 06-01-2003, 03:49 PM

213 people have viewed this poll and only 42 have voted.... Just how difficult is it to click a button!

I see the over 50's are popular. I am year of 1961

Spanky Johnson · 06-01-2003, 04:19 PM

37 here. I do feel that participating in a forum like this with a lot of younger members helps me keep a more youthful outlook on life than a lot of my peers. Or maybe I'm just immature.

i noticed that too... hoping that if we keep the poll alive we might get more responses...
though in reality... the people who care enough to take the time to click on the button... are the ones i am interested in anyway... *soft shrug*

thanks to everyone who has posted thus far!
