Sasanishiki 57 Posted May 18, 2004 (edited) I saw on the calendar there were a few birthdays coming up at the end of the week and just wondered how old the members are. We had a gender poll not so long ago, but I can't see one on age. I hope no-one takes offence. If you do, don't answer the poll. You don't have to tell us your age, just vote for the range that fits you. No disparaging comments about mental age as well please! (Neener, neener...)

Asashosakari 20,213 Posted May 18, 2004 I saw on the calendar there were a few birthdays coming up at the end of the week and just wondered how old the members are. We had a gender poll not so long ago, but I can't see one on age. We did have one about half a year ago, but with the influx of new members, maybe the demographics have changed. (Neener, neener...) I do think this should go into Off-Topic though, not Sumo-Related... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Manekineko 200 Posted May 18, 2004 Moved, along with several other demographicky topics... I've been a bad, bad moderator to let it go on like this. (Oops! ) (Neener, neener...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yubiquitoyama 4 Posted May 18, 2004 (edited) Does anyone have any idea how the demographics usually look in sport forums? Does it differ a lot between sports (likely I suppose) and is this forum in average older than normal or younger? My spontaneous guess is that especialy the group 16-20 is much bigger in some general sports forum, but it would be interesting to know if there are actual stats on it... (Neener, neener...) I'm 28 by the way :-) Edited May 18, 2004 by Yubiquitoyama Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaikitsune Makoto 210 Posted May 18, 2004 (edited) 24 is a good age. I am 28. When I am 32 I think 28 is a good age. I once saw a turtle that was over 100 years old. Church near-by is 500 years old. Kintamayama is 6. Does anyone have any idea how the demographics usually look in sport forums? Does it differ a lot between sports (likely I suppose) and is this forum in average older than normal or younger? My spontaneous guess is that especialy the group 16-20 is much bigger in some general sports forum, but it would be interesting to know if there are actual stats on it.. Snowboard forum's middle age is probably <20. Petanque-forums' middle age is probably >20. Everything else is guesswork :-) Edited May 18, 2004 by Kaikitsune Makoto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yasashiyama 0 Posted May 18, 2004 I'm 17 since april 5th. You're like the fifth person who was born in April and likes sumo, including myself. Maybe it is true about that most fans being born in the Spring time. (We'll at least to those above the Equator) (Blinking...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snowboard forum's middle age is probably <20. Funnily enough, I post on a Snowriders forum in Japan, most of the members are foreigners living itn Japan - teachers and professional workers, here are the results of a poll on demographics under 20 2% (1) 20-25 37% (16) 26-30 26% (11) 31-35 21% (9) 36-40 7% (3) 40+ 7% (3) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Naifuzan 1 Posted May 18, 2004 You're like the fifth person who was born in April and likes sumo, including myself. Maybe it is true about that most fans being born in the Spring time. (We'll at least to those above the Equator) (Blinking...) Well... There are 12 months. 12 x 5 = 60. And since there must be more than 60 sumo fans, right? I think the distribution was pretty even when we had a poll of wich month ppl were born in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sasanishiki 57 Posted May 19, 2004 50 exactly next week..Geez. Actually, your's was one of the birthdays that I saw when I started thinking about this poll.
