compens Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 There is nothing immature about playing this game as an adult. I have always loved role-playing games. I was one of the early generation of pencil & paper Dungeons and Dragons players back in the 1970s. My love of role-playing games is what drew me to RS. I am 42 and have only been playing 6 months. I don't know why it took me so long to discover RS, but I'm hooked on it. And I know at least 20 players who are 30, 40, and 50 years old and older. The problem for me is this game is so addictive!! My wife hates it! LOL!! I would be curious to know that average age, though . . . Enjoy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should get your wife a laptop and show her the RS way of life...LOL. My wife and I each have our own laptops and sit side by side while we do battle or work on finishing quests. SHHH, I am concentrating.....oh look, a paperclip! Where was I again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardovilian Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 My guess Average age is 19.56 years old This is based on the average age of all of the ages submitted to this thread so far. All you have there is the average age of a Runescape player who is also a member of Tip.It and is prepared to divulge their age to the Tip.It community. i.e. nowhere close to even approximating the average age of a Runescape player. Something which this post is going to emulate quite well. It would have been better to ask "How old is the average Tip.It'er", or something similar. For what its worth (not much, given what I have just said), I'm 38, and started playing RS 2 years ago. Why is 'common sense' so named, when there is so little of it about?Welcome to puberty, we've been expecting you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InkofDeath Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 lord :shock: , i don't know how you haven't died yet, considering you haven't played for 8 freaking months, I'd be flopping on the floor like a chicken on thanksgiving day.

Reverze Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 I am getting 17 in .. 17 days! :P That's special in some kind of way... :) By the way, I think the average age on Tip it Forums will probably be higher than on Rs. Don't ask me why, I'm too lazy and busy to explain it all right now -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that really bothers me about younger players is the 1337 speak they do :lol: i dont even know what there talking about :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shocktart787 Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 24 years old here. 8-) Myself and my husband (soon to be age 25) both have been playing for nearly 3 years. While I imagine the *average* age of players would be in the 14-16yr range, I know LOTS of adults who play... have even met people in their 70's that play!! :shock: ~*~Shocktart787~*~--------Combat 135--------------Total Lvl 2170+------Proud RS Player Moderator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
