    55 here. I'm thinking that after 5.1K of views and 300 some posts, maybe there should be a thread "Anyone who is not an old fart out there?".

    Old farts in gaming is misleading, I've had a very successful 18 year gaming career. Starting with MUDs back in the early 90s, to UO in 97, to EQ in 99, to WoW in 08, to SWTOR whenever that released, back to WoW, back to EQ for a bit, now here.

    18 years of gaming, and I feel old too....IM ONLY 30!!!

    34 here. I thoroughly enjoyed reading each one of your posts. I remember playing my first game at about 8 years old and running around my small town with a bunch of other young adventurers, with a stick as my sword and a garbage can lid as a shield . After getting my first computer at about 12 I discovered Bulletin Board Systems and playing games such as LORD, Usurper, text based MUDS - as well as offline games like King's Quest and Ultima.

    I think I enjoyed reading your posts so much because I know I'm just like the rest of you - I'll never stop playing, never stop imagining. I'll be there one day the same as all of you, playing games with my children and grandchildren - unless my rockstar lifestyle doesn't make short work of me first *laugh*. Forever young at heart and mind. Very happy to share this game experience with you folks. Much respect to my elders.

    I played Ultima and discovered you could take money from the castle. I remember to this day when the guy said, "You will NEVER be an Avatar!" :-( Been chaotic good ever since.

    I got a pong system for Christmas in the seventies, been on the bleeding edge ever since with consoles and home computers.

    How many of you had friends come sit in your living room and try to solve the Zork games? No graphics, but it was the most amazing thing ever.
    The number one rule of online gaming is now and has always been, Never play on Patch Day.

    35 here, played Asheron's Call for 10 years. Seems like ever since WoW came out that there is an influx of foul mouthed keyboard warriors in the MMORPG community. I rarely pay attention to area/zone chat anymore due to the <insert pointedly racist/sexist/etc> remarks that constantly spew forth from the younger generation of gamers.
    I would love to get into a guild dedicated for older, more mature players.

    An old 40 here. I may not be pulling social security, but I wake up every night to pee and I don't like kids on my lawn or touching my stuff. And that "music" as they call it nowadays just makes me mad. Where is all the power chords? Why is Justin Beiber popular? Who the hell is Selena Gomez? And is Lourde Madonna's daughter?

    I am confused, angry, and slightly deranged. I believe that makes me overqualified:P

    Though I am 40+ in age, my farts, few and far in between, are always fresh and scented lightly with strawberry or lemon verbena.

    ...you learn how to do that at 37. Geez, OP. ;)

    And as far as "you're as old as you feel," I had this chat with my 16 year old niece last night while I was negotiating an armor craft for a lowbie dragon knight. Her bf was watching it chat, then declaimed, "you have the awesomest uncle ever, can we team?"

    Yeah. I take pride in the fact that though I get older, I never got old.

    49 here, and never grew out of playing games. However, I've heard this rumor about a large glowing hot object in sky. I'll check after I finish this quest, ooh look another quest....

    Any old gamers feel free to look me up. I'll look into this old timers guild as well.

    So when I scream at screen, "Hey kid get off my quest" I'll feel less idiotic
