OK, after spending some time on this forum I have to wonder what the average age of the player base is that plays this game. I know the forum is but a tiny sample of the overall number of people that play EVE, but I think maybe it'll get us within a range that we can determine the average age of the EVE player base.
Not going to ask for an age out right. If you are under 30 years of age, type: Under 30 If you are over 30 years of age, type: Over 30. As people respond I'll keep track and when we have 200 responses, I'll post the results.
I'll start.

over The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy |

It's obvious by the English usage and the ability to use context and syntax properly that most EVE forum users are at a proficiency far above most other gaming forums.
Too bad that the predominant emotional level knocks them right back into the running with most of the thirteen year old dweebs that populate the top F2P game forums.
So, in answer to the title query, I'd say the average player is an emotionally deficient higher educated person in the thirty to forty range. They likely have no idea what goes on outside of their mom's front door. In fact, if mom stopped bringing meals into the basement and cut off the internet, they would die of simple confusion having not been away from the PC since shortly after graduation.

How exactly do you propose to calculate an average player age with such vague data?

Back in my day... There wasn't enough dirt formed to be under it, and we had to walk both ways, uphill, through ash storms as there wasn't even enough water for snow. Heck, you kids and your new fangled moon. We saw by stat light alone at night till that darn asteroid hit.
