Mr Epeen Cool

It's VERY ignorant to assume I graduated !!!

But actually I haven't seen my old ma for 10 years....

Unfortunately it is my birthday tomorrow (06/13) I will be 25 years over 30....

And yes it sucks big time... I can see the Grim Reaper getting bigger in my rear view mirror...

Also, the average age for EVE players is around 34 years old, as per CCP's data in 2011.

Been playing spacegames since Elite, though I do admit it was a pretty outdated PC I played it on, even back in those days of yore.

There are a number of us who recognize CSM Robert Woodhead from his Wizardry days, back when it was going up against Richard Garriot's original Ultima trilogy. Also I have seen a number of people who mention they were Elite fans, which I played on my Apple II back in the day.
