Soooo, as I'm returning to this site after having been on a hiatus for some time, about 5-6 years, I'm realizing that I may be too old for this site lol

I'm just curious as to the demographics of the users.

I'm 32, and I see a lot of younger crowd on here.

Is anyone even near my age range?? lol

I joined when I was 16, after being off and on til a year or so ago. Now I'm 23, most of the people I once knew are gone and the demographics seem to point towards a 1x1 users mostly or people who only use Discord. Plenty of people in your age group are still around, I assume.

I hope so. I feel slightly uncomfortable roleplaying with younger crowds, especially if romance is involved which, let's face it, it's inevitable most times.

At 32 I feel like anyone younger than 30 is a child, idk why. A lot changes when you turn 30 lol

Oh no I don't blame you there, but really 30 isn't that old. Sure you might feel old but you're not, 40 or 50 is getting up there but you still got your whole life ahead of you.

Very true :)

@Dark Cloud

I also feel like this site is pretty dead compared to what it used to be when I first joined. Or maybe I'm just impatient xD

You've got discord and a lot of other RP places to choose from too. I still manage to fill up on players within 24 hours any time I run a check, so I hesitate to use the word dead. Less active? Sure. Dead? Deffo nono.

Also I'm in my 30's and personally know several other people on the forum in my age group. We're out there but we aren't as numerous as the younger ones. Then again, who goes around on a forum waving their age around?

I know what you mean. A lot of the user base here are just kids, at whatever age, but there are a good number of older writers and just good ass writers. You definitely have to kind of suss out who is who but there are plenty of folks.

Sites not dead but it has lost a ton of users and a lot of the users still here don't actually RP anymore. Many reasons for that, none of them likely to change anytime in the foreseeable future, IMO.

Saw your intro post. I feel similarly about High School and College RPs. You seem to have an interest in comics. Maybe check out...

There are several RPs and several RPers who pretty consistently put out good stuff, depending on what kind of RP you like to do.

I'd suggest JB, Ruby, Hellion, Penny, TGM or maybe TMG I always forget, and Poohead. Just as sort of starting places.

JB does a lot of Warhammer related stuff
Ruby used to be an admin/mod and does some good ass superhero RPs. She's the GM for that RP I posted a link for.
Hellion is an old friend and does some really good RPs in several genres. Some fantasy and a lot of cyberpunk.
Penny I don't know her proclivities but she writes a good deal at high quality and has for forever.
TGM/TMG does superhero RPs sometimes including my personal favorite 1968.
Poohead does a lot of fantasy stuff and is a straight up published author.

All of these folks are in their Late 20s to Early 30s. I think most are early 30s.

I'm in my mid 30s too.

Bounce, Hound55, and BruceWayne all make really good Superhero RPs if you're feeling like one of those too. I don't believe they currently have one active but look them up. Not sure how old they are but top notch writing.

I'm traditionally published now ;)

I know someone on here who is 60, so you're not too old. Also I'm 31

Wow thanks for the heads up Bango 🥰

You're welcome.

Here's another link. This one is a Group RP that seems to be a little stalled right now but has some great writing in it. I'm a big fan of the Batman and Bat Family writing in there. Also the lawyer tiger man. And the duo of Starfire and Raven. Probably a good place to start if you want to do superhero RPs or just RP with folks with similar interests.

Between those writers and the folks involved or getting involved in Ruby's "Dawn of X" RP it's a pretty solid place to start from.

I get that. At 23, most teenagers I know feel incomparable in terms of relatability and life experience. But a lot of the friends I've had here are in their their thirties. I don't think the format necessarily seems attractive to that many youngsters. It felt a little old fashioned when I started here ten years ago.

HEY HEY @POOHEAD189 I've been here since you weren't a mod >:p

That's true! There was a good two years before my ascension.
