How old are you?

Boxer & Co. · 03-19-2007, 03:15 PM

I've been reading alot and I'm new to the internet and dog forums. I assumed everyone was my age(25) or older. I didn't think about the fact people under 18 were posting. My fault. It just didn't register until I was reading a "drama" post and someone mentioned being 12.
Not that I think there is something wrong with younger people being here. I just want to know if I'm talking to a child or not. Thats reasonable right?
So, with that said.... whats your number?

I am 12, my name is Laura,but you said you wanted to know if you are talking to a child. Does that mean if you are you will not reply?

Jaylie · 03-19-2007, 04:30 PM

I will be fourteen in August...It's funny, it turned out that I got Jaylie on my birthday! I was scheduled to get her the day after my birthday, but GDA called and asked if we could change it. The whole litter was picked up on my birthday!

But I hope I don't come across as being immature.

You don't...I thought you were older than that (not in a bad way, but you seem far from immature to me.) I hope that I don't come across immature either actually...I'm 20 also.

You're older than I am, but not by much. I'll be 21 in October.

I've been on forums since I was in 7th grade. I shudder to think of what my 13-14 year old self sounded like on forums. Hehe...

ScareCrow · 03-19-2007, 05:45 PM

I'm 27 but for some reason the internet always seems to make me feel old

I didn't say that. I respond to posts when I have something to say, regardless of age. I wanted to know because the older you are the more experience you have. As well as if I'm responding to a child's post I need to be careful how I word things, due to they might take it the wrong way.

I agree. I have NOTHING whatsoever against younger people, and I like chatting with the younger ones on here, but I do think you sometimes have to word things differently with younger people. Also you have to be careful about responding to them in a debate situation. I hope this isn't sounding offensive or anything..I know I was the same way when I was a teenager. It's easy enough to take something the wrong way on a forum or IM, but I think a lot of younger people (including me when I was younger) take things very wrong online.

No wonder you seem kind of in secure. No offense, you seem immature. But whatever, your 12. Live young.

Same as I said above. No offense though.

By the way, I am 16.

EDIT:

CrzyBritNAmerica, your right. Its kind of harder to debate on a forum with younger people because they take it the wrong way if you say something they don't like.
