So,
Here I am sitting at work discussing the beatuy that is EvE Online. I just received my copy of Tony Gonzales' "Eve - The Empyrean Age" and im thinking about reading the first chapter right now. Either way we got on the topic of what the average age of EvE subscribers is as our player base "at times" appears to be much more mature than our enemys the WoW tards and the Hello Kitty failures (chococat is tehgey..) So. I'd love to see a dev response to an acurate number to this question if possible.....What is the Average Age of EvE Subsribers?
Thank you in Advance,
Jillian....By the way im 22

I would say that the maturity level is largely based on the fact that we dont have silly looking avatars waving our silly swords/guns around while simultaniously casting spells and doing the pelvic thrust emote. Plus EvE is cold, dark and at times really scarry.

31. I doubt CCP has accurate data on the average age of EVE players. It seems to be mostly college age and people in their 20's. BTW, there are plenty of mature and intelligent players in WoW and other MMOs. In fact the majority of players I ran into in WoW were in the 20's, some much older. There are some kiddies running around though, and generally immature players, but you just have to find a good guild. Honestly all this WoW hatred and condescension around here I find off-putting.
I think we all hate WoW primarily because they are Hyper-Mainstream and that there is in comparison so little content in it however your standard Best-Buy nerd is all about it....plus man seriously....What other game can your character fire artilery shells from their body/ship/avatar? lol.

Yes, the average age of EVE players can be calculated after all players post their ages into this thread. All 200K+ of them...
I suspect though that CCP's numbers have flaws: It's my belief that older people tend to have more accounts, on average, than younger players, and if they fill out their information correctly, this will skew the results upwards.
For example, I'm 37 and have 5 accounts. If CCP counts the average player age, do they count me as 5 37-year olds, or just one?
Good point and that also brings up another stat I've always wanted to know. How many people have multiple accoundts? and how many do they have?

..I'm more curious about the mmo/rpg/gaming background of the average player, possibly in comparison with the general choice of career in the game as well. I know I'm asking for too much, but meh. Also, I'm looking forward to finally growing up and hitting 30 in a few months.
My first MMO ever was EvE, I bought it off the shelf at best buy no knowing it was an MMO (or what an MMO was for that matter). Took a break to play Lineage 2, which sucked then came back. I was a bow and arrow guy in that crappy game but im a Blaster junkie and production whor3 in Eve. Dont really see the relation but there you go.
