    So, I have been a member here since I was age 15. I notice there's a lot of people recently in there late teens and early 20's around here. More so then there are young kids like there used to be. Which brings to my attention who is our oldest of age member? Not the member who has been here the longest but is the oldest in age! Oldest I have seen I think is maybe 27 or 28 years old.
     
    Okay let me rephrase this. Some one who is older in age and is real, Plus active still. This is what I seem too come across is that most are fakes or have been inactive for a couple years now.

    I find it hilarious that someone is born in 1902 and is 111 years old and plays pokemon lmao
     
    There really is no way to tell who the oldest member here on PC absolutely is. As Rika said above, a lot of members do age-bend, and we also have a lot of members that don't reveal their age at all, thus making it really impossible to pinpoint down. But I'd say that somewhere in the 40s and 30s is our oldest and currently active member.
     
    I know a member that is mostly in the 50s, so I'd say that's pretty good.
     
    So Olli isn't really in his 90's? Wow I really am socially inept.

    ...Where do people get this from? lmao

    But yeah, like mentioned, there's no way to tell who the oldest member would be. With all the age-bending and people neglecting to actually state their age, finding out who the oldest would be isn't really a possibility :p Also, the reason you aren't seeing that many kids around here anymore is most likely because of the enforcement of COPPA, meaning only people of age 13 or over are allowed to make an account. And for what I know, the memberbase has pretty much always had a majority of teens and 20+ :p

    I'm one of the youngest on here. At 13 years old, most of them don't like pokemon anymore... :( But I still obsess over it! I've seen about 1-2 other 13 year olds. hopefully I will stay until I am too old to move my fingers.

    Most members are probably in their early 20's, because those were ~ten year olds when the first games came out. The first generation *tearfulgosh* And as we grow older, some might "grow up" and leave, but surprisingly many turn 24, 25, more, and stay. Good geeks :]

    I don't really remember who the oldest member at PC is in terms of age but I have sometimes run into a few aged older than the 20's (one was even in his 50's iirc) but yeah, like Rika said we mostly have people aged in their 20's (including me hahahaha) who were fans back in the early days of Pokemon, and even though I'll be 22 once October hits I'll always be a Pokemon fan forever.

    The oldest member I've ever seen is Elite Overlord LeSabre, who claims to be 88. But like everyone else has said, its difficult to verify.

    She's probably just making that up. xP (YOU DON'T SAY?!)

    But yeah, the highest i've seen is maybe 28 or something like that. I could always be wrong, though. I mean, I highly doubt Razor Leaf is two, for that matter.

    This being true because I was 5 years old going on 6 when I first started playing Pokemon in the late 1990's. Most of our members are in there late teens/early 20's. I also understand the COPPA. I was just curious if we happen to maybe have anybody who is truly in there 40's,50's,60's and so forth.
     
    I'm 31 and I talked to a user recently who claimed to have 10 years on me.
    I often feel like a geezer here, XD.

    Don't worry, they'll start loving it again eventually. At the very latest at college ;)

    When I'm 31 I'll still be on PC. Yep!

    I kind of feel like this thread would be better off in the CCC haha

    Same here but mom didn't allow Pokémon at first because of religion but around 6 I started blue version
     
    I don't. I will still be into pokemon hardcore at 88 even if it goes out of style and shuts down.
