I know some guys in they're thirties that frag with me on Halo 3.

But how young is too young?

*Was about to post a jailbait motivational, really shouldn't*

But yeah, when our generation will probably with games all our life, the older generations just find no interest like how get our news from TV and internet, not radio and newpapers.

Oldest I know is 26 or 27 I think...

You can't be too old to play games IMO, if you like it and you can play it normally, why shouldn't you then?

I knew a guy who was like 67, don't think that's too old?

I knew another guy who was 48, he was cool though.

I dunno, I really don't think there's an age limit, but I think once you hit 18/21 or so, then you should stop playing computer games.

LOL! Are you insecure or something? The average age for a gamer is like 30 something. damn.

I know a guy that is 63... I need to type him in Caps so he can read it ...

There was a guild in Guild Wars as I recall ... accepting middle-age people only (like 40++).

The average gamer is a little nerdy then.

I dunno, I'd just rather be doing something else than gaming, but where I live is the ass' ass (as opposed to the bee's knees), so that's what I do. 'Sides, I was just joking really.

Yeah I know,

Games should never get in that of real life and getting laid.

I say if you like an activity, you should be able to take part in it, no matter how old you are. SRO might be perhaps too violent for a 2 year old, but how can someone be "too old" to play the game?

My wife and I are 29 and we both play. I've known plenty of other people in their 30s and 40s that play. A good friend of mine and his wife are my age. They used to play, but then got too busy.

Playing a game like this doesn't necessarily mean that you have no life, or are nerdy (I wear my Geek Badge proudly thank you very much!). There's nothing wrong with hopping on SRO for an hour or so at the end of a long day to kick back and have a little fun with friends.

Half my clan were adults, most served in the Military, one was in the Suicide bombing at the OB cafeteria, got his knee blown out. So you cant say they are immature in the mind. But that was a tactical military games clan. So theres no age on games

I know a guy that's 60 and his wife plays and his children.

NightSky · Post by **NightSky** » Mon Aug 11, 2008 8:18 pm

if you like the game it really shouldnt matter, only time it becomes a problem is if your letting it ruin your life outside of sro.

There is no limit on how long you're allowed to keep part of your youth.

Lol I think that's too young. There are juniors (some sophmores) in high school who are that age. IMO the age when you shouldn't play sro as MUCH is when you have your own family. Then you gotta shift your priorities from yourself to your family.
