View Full Version : Old-Timers...

Not suprisingly, many of the people I've seen on this site (and most sites in general) are fairly young, usually teenagers. However, there are also quite a few of us who have stayed true to our lameness and nerd-dom (yes, I just made that word up) on into our late twenties, like myself.
What, then, is considered "old" on this particular forum? My age, 30's, 40's, beyond? Are you an Old-Timer, or a Young-Whippersnapper?
I am old
need I say more?
you can hardly fine a person older than 20 I think

amazing to see that most of people who actually sent a reply to this thread are mostly of the age group 20 - 30... that is weird actually, i think by then i would have seen bleach finish...

Personally I think it's good that we're seeing more so-called "old" members of the anime/manga scene. The more adults that understand being a fan, the better - especially because it counteracts the negativity of those who think we're just sitting around watching "dumb childish cartoons" all day.
Me, I'm 18 - turning 19 next week. So I'm....... oldish young?

I really enjoy video games, the internets, and some animes/manga. I hope I will continue to like them. Most of the old folks I know don't seem to stop and smell the flowers enough, in my opinion. I hope I don't end up having a life that involves dishes and laundry-- unless I happen to be trying out some lame new game, hopefully just a rental.

you can hardly fine a person older than 20 I thinkHwaah! Looks like the poll says differently. :3 And we all know that we should always put our faith in polls, especially on the Internet. :D
wasnt there already a thread on ages? or are we using a new one;_; Forgive me... I'm a newb who has forgotten the wonderous teachings of the Search Engine. ^^;;
Yeah, you guys are all old-timerz, live with itEh, Sonny? Speak into my good ear. ;D
[Hey, my girlfriend just turned 30 in January, so she's pretty ancient. :P]
I'm 25, and I don't see my love of anime, manga or video games dying off any time soon...^^Heh... My love of video games hasn't really died, but I must say I don't play them as often... And it's not just because of work. I guess that, even though I still love video games, I've become more picky about them. On the other hand, I am broadening my horizons with anime and manga. :D
turned 24 last month, damn i'm getting old, but i still love my anime and manga and will always.......~sniff~ Such devotion! It's touching! ~cries~
where are my teen brothers!!
amazing to see that most of people who actually sent a reply to this thread are mostly of the age group 20 - 30... that is weird actually, i think by then i would have seen bleach finish...Heh... Think of how weird it is for those of us that are older to come to sites and admit our fascination with what most of the world deems to be childish cartoons and "comic books." XD THAT gets pretty weird.
Personally I think it's good that we're seeing more so-called "old" members of the anime/manga scene. The more adults that understand being a fan, the better - especially because it counteracts the negativity of those who think we're just sitting around watching "dumb childish cartoons" all day.
Me, I'm 18 - turning 19 next week. So I'm....... oldish young?That's a good way to think of it, I suppose. Heh. Most of the people I met around my age that like Anime generally have liked it since they were teenagers (or even younger, some claim). I never really got into it myself until after I was well into my early twenties. When there was supposed to be some convention around here last summer, I tried to explain it to my mother that it was to me like a Doobie Brothers' concert was to her... ...but then she asked me what kind of drugs were going to be there, so I don't think I explained it very well. XD
And I would say "Oldish Young," yes. Like an "New Oldbie." Er, would that be a "old newbie?"
I really enjoy video games, the internets, and some animes/manga. I hope I will continue to like them. Most of the old folks I know don't seem to stop and smell the flowers enough, in my opinion. I hope I don't end up having a life that involves dishes and laundry-- unless I happen to be trying out some lame new game, hopefully just a rental....
...
...I just got finished with laundry. And I have to do dishes tonight. ;_; This stems from having a girlfriend who is allergic to domestic chores.
Sorry everyone for the huge reply, but I just got around to reading the rules and such on the site, and there was that so-totally-lame rule about no double/triple-posting (yet, strangely enough, nothing about quadruple-posting--still, I thought it best not to test my luck). Heh.

Meh...20-30 isn't hold yet. I'm 21 and i know alot of other people between 20-30...they're still teenagers. They're just teenagers that have jobs and live on their own (...well most of them do...). I still do everything i did when i was a teenager :doindadom

Hmmm... Compared with the previous thread about ages, this poll seems to reflect that either there are more active 20+ people on the site, or that less people under 20 have decided to vote in this poll. XD

I'm a young whippersnapper alright....I'll be turning 17 in September so basically I'm still in my sweet 16...^_^

I'm almost 16 (in may)

well, i'll go ahead and add my age (sort of), so we old folks can continue to dominate, at least in this thread. i'm an over 35 female that will never stop watching anime just because of age. that may make me weird in some people's view, but i really don't care. my daughters and i love it and they think it's great that i watch it and that we can do things together because of it.

Average age ranges from 15-19..hmm,from the people that have taken the poll...if you get most of CB to take the poll that there's a better estimate. Anime/manga/animations etc. are for life so I dont think most of us will be forgetting this in the future ^____^

I guess I can say I'm young (18 going on 19) but I feel ancient. I haven't even noticed when my 16th birthday passed by and now look I'm almost 19 now!Gosh...If I feel old now, I'm going to cumble to dust when I'm 25!
I don't think age matters when it comes to liking and having an interest in certain thngs, for eg...I still like watching cartoons sometimes XD. Ooh one of my favs is 'The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy' and 'Sheep...in the Big City' :D
But I guess it would be weird if you're 80 and you're still here posting in CB's Randomness and throwing things at the next user...XD...but then again who's to judge? *shrugs*

Old people from previous generations still like the things they did when they were young. I wouldn't be suprised to see thirty-year-olds+ into anime a few years from now when the first anime generation is grown up.
I'm young, I'll be 16 in 8 days.
There are more old people than I thought there were on here.

I'm 23, so I guess I'm fairly old compared to some... okay most, of the other users on the forum. I still like anime, manga, video games and all that. I don't think I'll ever get sick of them. XP Personally, if I didn't have these outlets, I'd go nuts - or worse, petrify into some rock-thing. I'm already buried up to my ears in books, my head filled with dissertation topics. If I didn't have my BLEACH and Final Fantasy... scary thought. O_O
