Topic: How old are you?

[DinoCrisisFan]

This is somewhat of a tradition I do on every forum I join.

[VANGUARD]

28 now, 29 on the 6th of May.
Someone on here just had a birthday, 22 now I believe.

[Kaiaatzl]

Lol, we have the same birthday  .

I'm 20, but I'll be 21 on May 6th.
Half of me's looking forward to it, the other half can't believe it (though TBH 21 isn't the big deal in Canada like it is in the States - 18 or 19 is the legal drinking age depending on the province - and I don't drink anyway).

[VANGUARD]

yeah, 21 can be the big day for us Americans. I don't drink much at all, and nothing happened on my 21st birthday. It was more shallow than most b-days. oh well.

[Scyphi]

I'm twenty-one, will be twenty-two on the 26th of October.

21 was also an anti-climatic age for me to reach.

[SaladBadger]

I'm 17, but I've had people think I'm in my mid-20's before, heh.

[VANGUARD]

I don't get it. I've always been more decent and mellow, and people always thought I was 3-4 years younger than my real age. "You're like 19 aint you?" "no, 22."
online doesn't count, but someone said, "you sound like you may be in your early 20s", "yeah, 28."

[Kaiaatzl]

I would have switched you with...

Eeek!^TM

If this is uncalled for I'll remove it.

And I would have switched Vanguard with Sirius.  (Seriously).

[VANGUARD]

Sirius?

am i actually cool or important for once?

[Ronin RedFox]

I'm 15, but I'm told that I don't type/act like a 15 year old.  :L

The person who starts the thread needs to post their age too, you silly goose.

I'm 17.

[Scyphi]

^ I thought it was around that ballpark, no offense.

If you're implying I'm older than I seem, this would not surprise me. Even in the real world, most people seem to think I'm a few years younger than I really am.

So lesse... when I first discovered Descent in the Summer of 1996, you 15-17 year olds were... 0-2? lol! That's alright, it's kinda like me playing the original Super Mario Bros. I'm 26 and people say I look 16. I get ID'ed every time. Once got rejected by this 23 year old girl cuz she thought I was like 16-19 years old and then gave me another chance when she found out I was OLDER!... but I rejected her cuz she looks 33! lol

One thing I've noticed as I've progressed through my twenties is that people your age or younger start looking older and older... I mean, I don't mean to sound conceited, but sometimes I feel like I'm stuck in a time portal and everyone around me is aging. But hey, that'll work if I wanna be in Times Square on December 31, 2099!

[VANGUARD]

I went to someones house in Grantsburg, WI and they were playing the original Descent. I don't remember how old I was though.

[Kaiaatzl]

Sirius?

First, pun intended.

One of the level builders who worked on missions like The Apocalyptic Factor, Obsidian, The Enemy Within, etc.  (I can't tell from your post whether you knew that or not).

He's 24, but I seriously thought he was 29 or 30.

If you're implying I'm older than I seem, this would not surprise me. Even in the real world, most people seem to think I'm a few years younger than I really am.

You do sound younger, though I've always taken you as a peer age-wise - now I know why I guess.  That, and you're the son of someone else here, someone who sounds about the same age as my dad - or even a little younger (though I have no way to know, he didn't post here yet ).  So I didn't expect you to be older than me (even if it is only half a year).  Again, I would have thought you were Insanity's age and Insanity was your age.

I think I answered your question without answering it.

The person who starts the thread needs to post their age too, you silly goose.

That crossed my mind too.
