A resent post got me thinking… how old is this community? Are we a bunch of oldies or are there some much younger users among us? I’m 47 been active on GTZ since 2009 (former TGN user). What say you?

41, been here since July of 2001.
My guess would be that the average age is late 30's, early 40's overall with a handful on both ends of the table.

MegaNESMan is probably the oldest active user. I know I've seen him post recently.

Turned 40 in May. Had no idea signing up to trade some games almost 15 years ago would last this long.

I bet. 40 was hard for me. 50 scares me.

It's cute that you all think 50 is old. I'm 68. The younger you are, the older I look.
The first computer system I bought was a 286 12 Ghz with a 20 Meg hard drive and VGA color graphics. $2,000 in about 1990 dollars - so there weren't too many people that had home computers. I used it for Word Perfect, Quattro Four, and started a few years of adventure games. My daughter and I worked our way through the King's Quest series and most of the Space Quest series while I did a few others like the Star Trek 25th Anniversary game and the first Myst. I collected almost every Star Wars game, but never played them.
I was ripped off on my first Game TZ trade. I made an agreement with another user who didn't have any trades. I sent him Buzz Aldrin's Race to Space, and he disappeared from the site.

Damn, 68 gotta be the upper tier. I doubt many others around that here.
A lot in their 40s or 50s.

Going on 37.
I joined GTZ almost 12 years ago.
No telling what the future may hold - but I really hope it doesn't involve something crappy.
