well im old, see ...

I will be turning 30 at the end of this month, and I have been playing graal since 1999. I still enjoy graal, and even making the npcs here and there is still a fun past-time and hobby, related to my main skill of website/other computer programming. It is also fun to teach young people about programming through graal - I wish I had such a nice tool to learn about computing when i was younger.

So, should I stay, or should I go?
What do you all think?

I started to play this game when i was older than you will be soon. I dont think its a question of your age. I know more than 10 people older than you playing graal. So my answer is. Stay!

Allow me to quote someone's signature:

"We do not stop playing because we grow old;
we grow old because we use too much ben***, leaving that old person smell everywhere."

I think I may have misquoted.

Stick around, graal certainly can't afford to lose talented scripters to teach the next generation.

Everyone. This poll is a trap. The forum administration is trying to determine which users encourage people to quit Graal.

Doesn't matter if you are 100, if you enjoy Graal, then play Graal, or work for Graal
I am 40, and I will quit when I no longer enjoy it, not when others think I am too old

I don't understand when people say this.
You act like I am suppose to be in a rocking chair, knitting a sweater.
I happen to enjoy these kinds of games. I don't see anything wrong if I play them, just because I am 40.

I may be wrong about this but I think I have the distinction of being the oldest active playing graalian at 50 so you still have to play another 20 years.

Personally I think it's awesome that there are people outside of the younger generation that play games
Don't poke fun just because they're doing this and they arn't young. Age doesn't matter a bit! General trend of anyone older is typically nothing close to "gamer"...but...so what? They just find enjoyment in ways others their age dont... to each his own!
Or her own**...hi Darlene ^_^
