Average forumite age

[potentillaCO32]

Wanting to see the complete picture now we know the size and age of boats.

You don’t have a range that includes 14 year olds, it is a forum after all.

 

[awol]

Average/Mean/Distribution? I would guess a somewhat left skewed distribution with a peak around 65.

People with time enough on their hands to look at boat forum polls in the middle of R4 Women’s hour

I think he means physical age not mental age. No 14 yr old uses a forum - they are all on Tik Tok.

Jeez, who is the baby in the 20-30 bracket?

Probably one of our more confused brethren

It’s one of the old guys who has clocked the speedometer

I guess enjoy this forum for the short period it has left !!

 

[Sea Change]

There are three people on here younger than me!

I joined when I was 22... That was a long time ago though!

looking at the poll results more generally - I'm staring to have a greater understanding of the amount of cantankerous arguments!

 

[Bouba]

These old barstewards infuriate me

 

[AndrewB]

Daren't say. But I'll admit to being 30 years younger when I first joined the YBW forum!

We should sue for lost years

Nah - fabulous years. This got me reminiscing about the Usenet BB's (UK.Rec.Sailing etc) which was all we had before HTML3 made YBW style forums possible: and right back into the late 70's when the first sailing BB I came across was a windsurf group exchanging information about conditions on the Hood River (USA), using Arpanet.

I was twenty one years when I wrote this song
I'm twenty two now, but I won't be for long...


Which kinda shows how old I am.

I think he means physical age not mental age. . .

Though I think it would be helpful to have a parallel poll to see others' mental age, too.

And put our own! (Be honest now!)

I prefer my shoe size as a measure.

I’m a bit schizophrenic about how old I feel...just sitting here living in my head, I could be 7 or 17....but my eyes start losing focus and every few minutes I have to get up, either to pee or rinse my eyes...and the getting up strains my knees...and going to the bathroom means passing the hall mirror.....
