39yr old looking for a guild

Sainthood · October 2007

Hello

I am a 39yr old teacher looking for a mature adult guild that I can gel with.

Thanks

Although you don't specify much information about you, I can at least inform you that the Anti-Sanctus Chaotica is a family guild involving multiple legit families (husbands, wives, children) and ages ranging from 14-40ish. We are mature when it comes to business but try to keep it as fun as possible behind the scenes. We are a heavy pvp guild with a good RP base. Please stop by and check us out

What makes you think there aren't more of them.

The people that make these games sure aren't 16.

Yeah, my wife and I (40 & 38) plan on playing WAR as well as a few friends all over 30. Ours was the first generation raised on video games. For a lot of us, it's not something you outgrow. Games aren't just for kids anymore. Best bang for your entertainment buck.

Very true, im 39, and my first computer was a commodore vic 20 and played games on colecovision.

My wife could care less about computer games though. Actually im wrong, she does like the mario games but doesn't play very much.

About the OP question. Im in a guild call Stormhaven

Lots of mature people and they have chapters in many other games.

Im pretty sure they are going to start a guild in WAR when it comes out.

I know im playing it.

Well, I am twenty years old but my father is 45, we just enjoy playing MMO's together I guess. He is the one who introduced me to gaming when I was very young and it stuck with me.

It makes me smile when I see something like..... "The Unholy Legions of Anti-Sanctus Chaotica - A Warhammer Online Destruction Regiment"

Followed up with verbage like..... "is a family guild involving multiple legit families (husbands, wives, children) and ages ranging from 14-40ish"

I just sort of envisioned a sort of different guild make-up, you know? Like psycho bikers and lunatic gaming nerds....

I'd probably fit in pretty well since I exceed the qualfications (the 40ish part) but I'm probably going to be playing for the other side. Good luck and we'll see you next year...

Depending on what market source you use for information (they are all fairly close in number) the average age of gamers (all games inc MMOs) is 30ish. They even just had a little segment about it on G4 TV where they actually put the number at 32 if I remember correctly.

Here are some numbers

1. US computer and video game software sales grew six percent in 2006 to $7.4 billion – almost tripling industry software sales since 1996.

2. Sixty-seven percent of American heads of households play computer and video games.

3. The average game player is 33 years old and has been playing games for 12 years.

4. The average age of the most frequent game buyer is 38 years old. In 2007, 92 percent of computer game buyers and 80 percent of console game buyers were over the age of 18.

5. Eighty-five percent of all games sold in 2006 were rated "E" for Everyone, "T" for Teen, or "E10+" for Everyone 10+. For more information on ratings, please see www.esrb.org.

6. Eighty-six percent of game players under the age of 18 report that they get their parents’ permission when renting or buying games, and 91 percent say their parents are present when they buy games.

7. Thirty-six percent of American parents say they play computer and video games. Further, 80 percent of gamer parents say they play video games with their kids. Sixty-six percent feel that playing games has brought their families closer together.

8. Thirty-eight percent of all game players are women. In fact, women over the age of 18 represent a significantly greater portion of the game-playing population (31%) than boys age 17 or younger (20%).

9. In 2007, 24 percent of Americans over the age of 50 played video games, an increase from nine percent in 1999.

10. Forty-nine percent of game players say they play games online one or more hours per week. In addition, 34 percent of heads of households play games on a wireless device, such as a cell phone or PDA, up from 20 percent in 2002.

What makes you think i dont know theres more of them ? i just said "There should be more of them"

and by that i mean, there are to few near age 40 mmo players. ^^

Edit: It's really hard to compliment something without getting flamed nowadays .. too sad really.

I'm 30 and my wife is 24. We both play quite a lot when we find a good 'un to play. Just imagine swapping typical evening television time with MMO time and you get the idea.

It is definitely a different mindset for the slightly more mature group. (and I don't mean the "mature 16 year old" type of people).

Methinks we need a guild for ages 25 and up only. What say you?
