How old are you?? (poll)

pretty sure the results are anonymous on polls

Yep, results are anonymous so this is the good forum section. We can reply our current age or year of birth if we don't mind sharing. Anyway I think this is a good initiative @kotu , if people are checking, because it might help us gather more information about our demographics (eg to see how young/old our userbase is, overall, and other things). Perhaps this should be a poll on Cemetech, TI-Planet, Omnimaga, etc.

that's what i was thinking it could be useful with your demographics

I'm 20
(cpost to get past 20 post limit for polls)

I'm 25
(useless cpost because I'm way above any limit ever here)

On a side note I think we got quite a bunch of 40+ years old members. I'm starting to wonder if we have enough older members to actually have an higher active user age average than Cemetech?

(it was the complete opposite about two years ago when most of our users were 14-17 lol)

Sorry to double post @kotu but I wonder if it would be better to replace the poll ages options by birth years, eg instead of under 10, 11-13, 14-16, 17-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40 or older, you could use the following options:

2007 or later
2004-2006
2001-2003
1998-2000
1988-1997
1978-1987
1977 or earlier

That way, people will not have to change their poll option every few year. The years above are weird because I kept the exact same age ranges as your current poll. That said, the fact it's currently fixed age could also help giving an indication about which age range in which each user remains active.

Well actually I didn't allow the option to change your answer.

I think it is ok as it is tbh....... it just represents the age someone was when they first joined the site / completed the poll.

What you could do (seeing as you guys run the site) is record each entry given, then you keep that information separately, and update it as the years pass.

Good enough??
