but seriously more than half of the respondants to this poll are over the age of 21....while more than a quarter of the poll are over 30! Good news for the 'more mature' crowd

They all post about "annoying 13 year olds" no-one wants to play with us i feel left out... whaaa
Because most 13 year olds come from World of Warcraft or Runescape, so people usually see these players run into a group of enemies, snag a decent train of them, and curse out the Monk because 'u dint hela mi fast enuf' when they get wiped... But atleast your not looked down upon with disdain like the Mesmer/Ritualist/Paragon classes.

Ah... now I understand why there are so many immature players in-game.
Majority group is 14-17 year old... that scares me. I wish the majority group was one containing people 18 or older, under that age lots of them tend to ruin the game experience.

I'm 13 and I don't have a problem. Really if you just play well and don't talk rude you won't have problems. Also if age is never brought up it no one seems to notice it ( I had a guild leader who thought I was 40 and was very surprised when I told him I was 13 and nobody cared because I did my part).

Im 38 and I look forward to new GW chapters more than my 6 year old son looks forward to Christmas. My 13 year old twin sons dont play video games.

Im pretty sure I voted on a poll like this one not too long ago as well.

Age does NOT equal maturity BTW. I am in a multi gaming clan of people aged 30 and up, and trust me on this one...I know some 15 year olds that are more mature and better sports than some 50 year olds I know (and yes, the 50 year old guys play GW).

P.S. -- I got them into it.

I'll be 30 in Aug so I put myself down in that group... I guess I'll be good for 3 years now before I move groups again..

(which is good, this group was hard enough to admit!)

I am 15 years old and I am much more mature than those at the same age. I don't whine, cuss, etc. Also, I am not surprised that most players aren't adults yet. Once you're an adult, how do you find time to play games?

18 here. Been at university for 6 months now. Its hard to find time to play guild wars. Ive had it for little over two years now (Ahh the days when I was 16 and could spend as long as I liked on it). I can hardly find the time to play now days. How do you people who are 25+ find time to play? Even more so the ones with children?

I think its great though. Coming from games like Ragnarok Its nice to finally not have to play with kids. While most of you don't know it you little dudes get really annoying very quickly.

Seeing how there's so many people over 40, the poll should have extended to 50-59 and then 60+

I'm seeing double above.
A century is 100 years, so that would make you 1/4 of a century. That's your lesson for today, school's out, you can go back to your game.
