Is There Much Age Difference In Your RPGing Group?

[Mark]

Groups are a couple of years older since this thread was last visited. I wonder how much more or less diverse groups have become, age-wise.

38 (me), 37, 37, 36, 31 and 25

I'm 22, I'm the DM, and I regularly recruit new players into the hobby via my siblings, the neighbour kids, and their friends. My current group is all 17 and 18 year olds. (Apparently all my friends my own age have too many "responsibilities" that come before playing D&D. lol)

We have a roughly 15-year-gap from oldest to youngest. I voted "yes," but it's relative.

From the low 20s to the low 40s.

From the low 20s to the low 40s.

Same here. It really doesn't seem like that big a difference though. *shrug*

 

[meomwt]

Youngest 24
Eldest (me) 40.

The youngster plays in both groups, so the equation stands!

There was, now there is not. We're all in our 30's and 40's, but we had the daughter of one player and her boyfriend playing with us for quite some time; they were 18 and 17. They're both at college now (and still gaming up there) for the forseeable future, so our average age bounced back up. We had no problems with them, except for occassionally having to explain a certain reference to them.

For what I consider "my" group, 19 - 22, with the majority being 21.

For the other group I game with, I am by far the youngest by around 16 years, while the rest of the group is within a few years of each other.

My current group is all early-ish 30's to early 40's.
