it appears younger on this forum tan some of the older sites...
Unlikely, until recently even the male/female stats were way out due to spammers distorting it.
I think there are a few young people posting a lot recently that may make the forum seem younger.
I'm sure we'll bore them into submission soon though, there should be more threads about the advantages of ear hair and how modern music is rubbish and "I" things are dumb and new abbreviations are degenerate and, and I'll finish this later it's time for my nap.

I think the average age is meaningless but I don't think it's very much different from this type of forum but that's only an opinion based on experience. What we do have some very bright and active youngsters which are giving the forum a very fresh feel at the moment.

Also, there is a shriveled old Asmo, who tries to help ;D
And a youthful, vibrant Old Git.

We've had a couple of poll threads on this topic that I'm aware of. The most recent one can be seen here (http://www.happyatheistforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=8052.0).

I don't know about anybody selling
zasobów, but one obliging spammer stopped by yesterday to try to sell us some footwear. Thus began my efforts as assistant janitor. (https://www.happyatheistforum.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg830.imageshack.us%2Fimg830%2F860%2Fsmilew.gif&hash=8238eab24d16418eb1c8cd60d971239ab1363c74)

Ooh! Ooh! The dutiful Asmo reported it too! (https://www.happyatheistforum.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ffreesmileyface.net%2Fsmiley%2Fangels-and-demons%2Fsaint-0082.gif&hash=34a869414a9551465568b8ae74b4b640fb57afdc)
Well, of course we know the Asmo has no need of footwear, and will therefore subject the purveyors thereof to his evil ministrations.
You guys must be doing a good job because I never saw a thing about footwear.

The age range of active members varies. I think the last time we did a poll the median age was 30s...with as low at 14 and a few up to the 60s.

Perhaps we can have a meetup next year piggy backing on skepticon.

I'd go! I could use a trip
ok...someone remind me this summer to organize a skepticon meetup so everyone has time to plan. I was planning on going next year anyway (it's free to get in too...just have to get yourself there and find a place to stay).
For anyone near the northern part of Texas there is something in the works for April organized by local student groups.
