I'm totally fine with it.But, feel free to illustrate that people who go to web sites often have no interest in the information on the sites they visit. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /> It's easier for YOU to make sense of that type of data. I am totally fine with picking whatever date ranges I want out of this information. 31 to 35 year olds. No problem.This data gives the same information, just in a different format and not yet combined into groups. It allows people to see the actual data curve and it allows them to analyze that data in whatever manner they see fit.You don't like it, fine. But, your argument as to why it is not useful is fallicious. It doesn't matter how other polls are made. How other polls are made does not invalidate the data within this poll.Sorry. I cannot help you to think and I won't do your thinking for you.There are many ways to analyze this data.And structuring it the way HP did gives less information and distorts the data.This is also another fallacy. You have yet to illustrate that this data is "exactly in line with the ENWorlder age in general". Stating it without backing it up doesn't do anything. It might be a similar data curve, but you haven't even yet illustrated that.For example, comparing it to the Year of Birth poll on the General forum from several years ago would at least be a start on supporting your claim here. Course, that might just illustrate that a large subset of a given superset often has similar distribution properties of the superset. That is the basis of probability theory after all.Basically, it appears that you are arguing just to argue.</blockquote>
