    Judging by some threads around here lately, I reckon the average age is about 10 and three quarters.

    That's offensive to the 10 and three quarter year olds population out there.

    I'd guess the average age is early thirties?

    We need to know who is of appropriate age to send our sexy PMs to, ffs - make the poll public, or even just the 18-24 year olds section.

    OP please explain your logic. Stopping at 50! I'm over 70 and take exception to this ageism.
    What on earth were you thinking? I assume you are about 18 yourself.

    Thats my bet too.

    Its only the 18-24 year olds that are still obsessed by what age everyone is.

    They're still clawing their way out of adolescence, when ones age seems so important to them.

    Extra over 50s options added (sorry it would only let me add two, so I had to be fairly broad with the ranges).

    I clicked on this thread (and voted) as the title looked interesting but soon discovered that the 12 - 15 year olds had taken over.
    I'm a grown-up BTW.

    Thanks to every one who voted so far.

    Although 0-17 years old were inadvertently excluded as were the 51+ year olds (the latter mistake kindly rectified by Admin) it starts to give us a glimpse of the age-spread of posters. Excluding the 'up to 17 year olds' takes away from validity of this Poll.

    I note that someone else had a similar poll in the past 8 months. It is hard to compare the two as the age ranges were different. Theirs was more comprehensive too. If someone finds another similar Poll posted earlier on the Boards, feel free to let us all know to see how the trends differ over time.

    Thanks again to all that have voted so far and if you haven't please do.

    If somebody runs the poll again in a year's time, no doubt they will do a better job than me, and a clearer picture of age ranges will emerge.

    Thanks again.
