Should GAG have an age limit of no older than 29 max?

[systemsareyo]

After all, I'm leaving the site later today to enjoy retiring at 29, lol, as I'll be turning 30 in a month or so. I've appreciated that personally, after over at least 8-10 years using this site off and on, or lurking before joining or both, ill enjoy my remaining 20s and then into my 30s+ and ongoing enjoying my other hobbies more time for TV and surfing the internet. I've only been back on GAG for a few days or weeks, and I feel like a) too time consuming, no offence and b) I'd rather spend my time and into my 30s "old timer me lol" and ongoing enjoying other hobbies 😊👍😋😋

Yes, GAG should be for 18-29 year Olds only

No, GAG should allow users older than 29

I don't care / my fave poll answer is always "I don't care"

Or, I don't know (lol)

IS NOT THE VERY PURPOSE OF GAG TO 'PROFIT' FROM THE GREATER LIFE EXPERIENCE AND PERSPECTIVES OF MORE-EXPERIENCED CONTRIBUTORS?
No one needs "the blind LEADING the blind" . To limit GAG to 29 max. relegates commentary to youth 'opinion' rather than LIFE experience!

And pray tell, how are you gonna enforce such a limit? I doubt most people l would be willing to share their private data/ids online online. Plus about 60% of people are older than 27, according to this poll here, so this means the site would shut down. People can need/give good advice at any age.. I've seen a lot of questions here that weren't strictly for 20 year olds

What Generation are you?

I am young and mostly talk to older people. Some young people only talk to other young people. Everyone does their own thing. So why put artificial limits on it? If you want to get rid of someone, get rid of the people who are disrespectful to everyone else with their phony sex posts and forced political propaganda.

Everyone does not think and feel as you do on this subject. Some of us are here not to seek information or advice, but to give information and advice, to give back to younger people what was given to us when we were younger.

[systemsareyo]

And that's why you're wise 🪄🦉🧙

[OlderAndWiser]

My profile explains that my username refers to the fact that I am older and, therefore, wiser than I was when I was younger.

No, of course not. That's foolish and only one so young as yourself would suggest that.

Think about it like this: Would you ask these questions?

Should you seek medical advice from physicians who haven't finished medical school?
Should you seek legal advice from lawyers who haven't finished law school?
Should you seek advice on raising your kids only from people who are minors?
Should you elect people younger than 35 as president?

if so you would only get answers from people with less life experience. i think minors should not be able to open accounts only 21 and older should be allowed to ask questions here. but then a minor would still say they are 21. oh well.

[ChiTown33]

So are you saying I should change my age in here? Maybe I'm 16, maybe I'm 86. Considering my sense of humor sometimes maybe I'm 6😂

If some twenty something doesn't want my advice that's fine. But I think some can benefit from it. Up to them whether they accept it or not. Some have said ty. So assume some are getting something from it.

[strateguy632]

good point based on the feedback people like the answers of our generation so an age limit would prevent benefit in the view of the askers.

[AviatorTom]

Why would you do that? Some of the best advice comes from us older experienced GaGers.

[AngryCarl]

You still here?

[systemsareyo]

Like the new York song, I'm leaving today :P and going off to enjoy better hobbies like TV
