kerrigwen Participant Registered: Sat Dec 30 2006 Posts: 20 Loc: Toronto Ontario Canada	Not surprised at there being more women... all the forums I've been at (quite a few) it's always been more women than men. Except the FFR one. :\| How fortunate that chatspeak isn't allowed here! At another site that I live at, the younger kids there are so rampant and with them chatspeak... and if you ask them to mind their spelling/grammar they jump on you and say "You're not our teacher; we're not at school, we're not getting marked on this. Neener neener!" Grrrr. Edited by kerrigwen (Sat Dec 30 2006 04:22 AM) _________________________ ~ I got soul, but I'm not a soldier ~

Hmmm, I am afraid they wouldn't last long in these forums. There are plenty of forums where this is acceptable, FunTrivia just isn't one of them. In our rules, found in the FAQ, we ask people NOT to use chatspeak. If they cannot keep to our rules their accounts would be closed, as they would if they were rude to other members. We also prefer people to use correct capitalisation and punctuation as it is far easier to read, therefore good manners. We accept that some people with dexterity problems might not be able to use the shift key with ease, but generally it is not a problem for most people. _________________________ Many a child has been spoiled because you can't spank a Grandma!

sue943 Administrator Registered: Sun Dec 19 1999 Posts: 37381 Loc: Jersey Channel Islands	Absolutely not! It was just a follow on from your chatspeak comment which we very much appreciated. I am so sorry if you thought I meant you, really sorry. From time to time we get new members who post in all lowercase, it is very hard to read, I don't think that applied to you. Please forgive me if you think I was having 'a pop' at you, I really wasn't. _________________________ Many a child has been spoiled because you can't spank a Grandma!

We are sitting ten or twelve feet from each other, around a corner so I can't see her, nor she me - and yes, we have both been on msn writing messages to each other. We haven't actually got around to using webcams but that might come! _________________________ Many a child has been spoiled because you can't spank a Grandma!

FLHazeleyed Participant Registered: Sun Dec 31 2006 Posts: 14 Loc: Central Florida, USA	Its nice to not be in a minority group anymore! For years I worked in a technical call center were I had to constently remind the guys that I was a girl. Though.. there were also some nice perks in working with mostly guys. They helped me move, fix my car, offered to "get rid of" a bad ex boyfriend, never walked out to my car in the dark alone, and no freakin' lines in the bathroom! _________________________ --§-- Have you paid anything forward lately? --§--

Dukasaur Participant Registered: Fri Dec 29 2006 Posts: 25 Loc: Ontario Canada	I sure wish I hadn't noticed this. Once again, being reminded that I'm over 40 now and more than half my life expectancy is gone. I usually think of myself as thirtysomething, and then someone comes along and reminds me that I'm 43, and it's like getting kicked to the ground yet again..:(

borninnyc Learning the ropes... Registered: Thu Jan 11 2007 Posts: 3	This poll shows what I have always beleived that women generally are better with word games . Am surprised though at majority of age group playing. You should be working to support the retirees! Just kidding. borninnyc

Puppet_Master Participant Registered: Sat Mar 22 2003 Posts: 12 Loc: Ireland	Well I'm female and I'm currently 20 years old. The strage thing is I signed up to these forums in 2002 I believe. After reading through some of my previous posts from then I read that I was only 16. To me now it seems I was so young back then ! _________________________ Am I the last survivor, is everybody DEAD?

picqero Multiloquent Registered: Tue Dec 28 2004 Posts: 2813 Loc: Hertfordshire<br>England UK	I'm surprised the 13-20 age group is so high, 19% as of today, the second highest age category in fact! Proves there ain't that much wrong with the youth of today

quizking92 Forum Adept Registered: Sat May 05 2007 Posts: 148 Loc: New York USA	I am very surprised that 19% of all members on this website are under 20. I think that you should break down the categories more so it is easier to see. I think that the 13-16 range would be a lot smaller than the 17-20 range! Also, I guess that the women win... this time! _________________________ "Don't rain on my perfect day" Hoku
