19

It's weird to think that I was 15 when I started at this project, but what's weirder to think is that a lot of you were like 9 at that time :P I love how 13 year olds can work hand in hand with 28 year olds and nobody would ever know the difference.

...

That sounded a little pedophilic didn't it? What I meant was, I think it's interesting, you don't see that many places in the world.

Thrig: I'm not even 20 and I have access to all the liquor my heart desires! In fact, I'm drinking a beer right now! Yay Canada

I'll be 19 next month. It's weird to think that I was 12 when I first got MW and started lurking.

I am exactly I-am-not-certain years old! :D
And I joined when I was 14, I think.














I-am-not-certain might stand for 17.

Oomega, you measure your life in the amount of tears you've wept? If so, that's kind of weird ;)

I did my first computer program in Fortran on punch cards, back when you held "batch files" together with a rubberband. Referring to something as a "PC" would have gotten you a puzzled stare, since it might have referred to a "Pre-Columbian artifact", a Professional Consultant, or Personal Correspondence, certainly not to a quarter-million dollar mainframe computer.

My first job out of school involved a "mini-computer", which had been expanded to a massive 512 BYTES of "core" memory, small ferrite beads with tiny wires runnning through them to store a magnetic polarity. I was astounded when I first saw a Hard Drive, which used 12" diameter platters in a replacable package to store an amazing 10 Megabytes of information. It was incredibly fast, much more so than the huge reel-to-reel tape drives in common use at the time (like you see in glass cabinets in black-and-white sci-fi and high-tech military movies from the 1960s).
Pictures or it didn't happen.

I'm... I can't remember. Born in 86. However that shakes out.

im 14, the age where even remotely mature kids realize there parents were right about almost everything, and where everyone you know says you have great potential and you know you do.

But you just can't see it...

15, the age of trying to get everyone to like you (and failing)...

48! And no grampa jokes! :) As far as I can tell I'm the oldest modder and the 2nd oldest member. I've even got Haplo beat by about 5 years. :) I was messing around with computers before most of you were born. :)

Your post on the first page said 42! Guess I've got you beat by a few more years then. :)

By now, aged 37, I am sure that I am one of the elder, probably one of the less experienced with modding, but since 2006 I finished MW probably dozens of times (completely, no cheats, all possible quests, everything maxed, archmaster of all guilds and houses, and millions of cash). And Oblivion, MW alike, a dozen times.

So one might call me somewhat experienced, grinn, but then I have the age :p
