I dunno, it just suprises me the # of 15 and 16 year old kids we have here. I'm old enough to be these guys' cousin for pete's sake! :Q

Seriously though, why dont we, like, impose a minimum age limit. At least 18, says I.

As long as they aren't whiny little bitches, who really cares how old they are. There are plenty of 20+ year old people who whine like they're a ten year old. If anything, we should impose a whining clause in the forum agreement, stating that you can be banned for excessive whining.

I think that we should impose an intelligence limit, that way we can keep people like you out.

I don't care about anyone's age. What I do mind is when people talk about something they know little about and state it as fact. That problem is not age-dependent.

Agreed.

If anything, lots of the teen crowd are actually a LOT more mature than some of the "older" posters we have now and have had in the past.

There would be no point from barring < 18 year olds from coming in, and it wouldn't change anything because we still have 20-21-22 year old attention whore whiny bitch collegiate social rejects coming in here and posting inane stories of their whining bitchy spoiled asses and how the world stopped revolving around them.

Thanks, but I'd rather help a teenager through a problem with an AP class than listen to above-mentioned attention whore cry and moan and refuse to take any constructive advice into making their life less of a drama.

Back when I was that age, people on the forums I frequented (before I knew of Anandtech) guessed I was in my mid-20's based on my posts.:)
