    41 ya i tend to avoid zone channel ......sometimes its good .....sometimes its a posturing contest. Nice thing about MMO's is we get to decide what type of community we actually wanna be a part of. If i only wanna associate with my guild its my choice.

    I'll be 64 shortly. Attracted to computer gaming by Melbourne House's the Hobbit in 1983 and been gaming ever since, playing MMOs since the EQ Beta in '98. Loving this game.

    I hit 60 in a few months. MMOs are my weakness. Got hooked during beta testing of Ultima Online and have played every one of them since.

    George Burns once said "You can't help getting older, but you don't have to get old." It's great to see more of the older people who are playing ESO. By the way, 42 and enjoying the game.

    I know in LOTRO there was a Kinship called the Old Timers Guild. They were actually a pretty cool group of people, not nearly as much drama as most.

    For the record, I feel young here, I'm only 47. My first computer game was Adventureland on the Apple II. My first online computer game was Gemstone on the GEnie network. The first traditional MMO was Ultima Online though I only really played it during the beta because my company was involved with the support, at the time I ran a MajorBBS/Worldgroup BBS so I was more into MajorMUD and Tradewars. Perhaps some of these old games bring back memories. :)

    Lol, I think I have seniority here. 70 at the end of April, but this is all my son's fault! He got me started in EQ2, then my grandson came along, now there's a grand daughter......and the list goes on! Gaming is a great way to stay young and be part of my grandchildren's lives. My grandson gave me the best compliment ever yesterday when he said, you know Grandma, OTHER people ask me to do favors like wash the dishes and take out the garbage. Only YOU ask me to help find treasure in Stros M'kai.

    There are some multi-game guilds designed for "seasoned" players that don't want to deal with teenage shenanigans. Sounds like several people here would enjoy it.

    45 here and only feel old when I read the zone chat so that gets turned off. Have found it gets harder to find groups as the years go by as less and less RL friends play these things and as I can hear screaming teenagers at home I don't need that in a game too!

    Have played MMOs since UO T2a and if they put that game in a modern graphics engine I'd drop everything and go right back. It was the perfect MMO I think. I first played it on a Celeron 333mhz with 32mb of RAM, a whopping 16mb voodoo card and not forgetting the 56K modem.
