Hello everyone
I have been surfing the forums a bit lately without making alot of posts. After my recent ventures into the COAD section which I regret, I have now been bogged down with the curiosity of the average age range for EVE players?
I once believed it to be in the 20-30 age range, but after COAD expierence, I believe it is much lower.

I have to admit, it is funny sometimes, but I really think that I lose more brain cells faster here than huffing gas at your local gas station, and no, not YOUR gas

*Juvenile snicker*
If I had to guess the average age of the eve player based on who I'd met, I'd probably say around 28.
I've met lots of 18/20/22 year olds but then you get the 40/50+ year olds that there's a reasonable supply of.

I know the popular opinion is that it's somewhere in the late 20's, but I have a feeling it's younger than that. At least the average age is probably shifting downwards now that the game is a little less niche than it was for the first few years of its existence.

Funny thing about physical age of players in MMOs... it has little to do with the level of maturity of such players. I've seen sixteen years olds that could lead guilds/corps with all the professionalism of a seasoned CEO of some "fortune 100", and then I've seen fourty year olds chuck their mouse across the room when their precious rifter got blown up. Age is no measure online.... unfortunately?

If you're amazed by the level of social idiocy, its less of an age thing and more so that the internet attracts people who have nowhere else to go thanks to social idiocy. This will never change.

I think it is fortunate, because if you don't know a person's age you treat him according to his true maturity level. They get what they deserve
Case in point, I'm 17 and have been playing for 6 years. When I STARTED playing I was mistaken for a 30 year old, because I was mature.
Whether or not that still holds true remains to be seen.
My sig was fail, but now it isn't.

As you might see, Eve is the best way to prevent yourself from aging.
Take care, bears. |

I'm 26 at any rate, and would have been 23 when I started.
These statistics exist. I just used them for an article I was writing, and I believe the average age of eve players is 27 and 90% of the player base is male.

Nice stats, too bad they're almost three years out of date by now. (Interview date October 2006). EVE has doubled its population since then, so the demographics reported there are very likely to have changed. Any more recent statistics? /me loves the statistics.
