Reading Schleed's reply, his answer makes a lot more sense than the bs about young people. He says:
I might make a forum or try and maintain contact with you lot outside i2, ie. Skype. The only reason I went on here again is the lack of interaction with people I actually like.
People, not age. Now don't you think that is refreshingly honest?
OK. Fair point. I'm not doing great at this, and I feel that I'm crossing a line by naming names, but I'll try this explanation.
Its not that I want to just hang out with people of my own age. I want to hang out with a mix of people.
Here are examples. I am really sorry to anyone who is pissed off with how I describe them.
Adam and Schleed. Both youngies. Love them both. Want to hang out with them.
QV. Oldie. Love her to bits. I love sharing a site with her. She is smart and wise.
Zippo. Total youngster. Good for the site. Dont like him at all.
Zegh. Under 30, but I could never put him into a group. He is a total one-off, and one of the coolest, nicest, and most brilliant people I have met on the internet.
OK, as you can see, it will make no sense to you. If it never made sense to you to begin with, it will make less sense now.
Schleed did make another good point.
Just to clairfy, Odeon is right on this. It's not people's ages that put me off, otherwise I would not be talking to awesome members like Misskitty and such.
If anything, I really can't put my finger on it. At first I thought it was the "grumpy old man" mentality some members have here, but it's more complex than that. I'll just put it up to boredom if you want the simple explanation.
This is very true. As Ive said, its not really biological age. The site site just feels so old-farty. What I was really trying to say in the earlier posts was that the site needed an injection of youth to shake it up and make it exciting again.
