I know this may seem like a ridiculous poll, but I want to determine the average age of an AntiOnline user. I want to find out exactly what kind of person comes here. I'm particularly interested with both extreme ends of the spectrum, being the lamer script kiddie, and the 40 yr. old professionsal network administrator.

Let me clarify something here before I offend anybody else. I do not assume that all teenagers are hackers or script kiddies, nor do I assume that all middle aged people are professionals. I'm sorry if this was unclear before.

Despite my age (15) I'm not a scriptkiddie, never was, and hope to god I never will be. Right now, I'm in the learning phase, learning languages, TCP/IP, etc.

eesy
October 31st, 2001, 02:51 AM
i am also 15, without any ambition of becoming a script kiddie or a hacker who uses others programs/exploits, so i don't really do anything, except learn and program,

why hack if i don't do it with my own knowledge?

I'm 16. I hope you don't think I assume all teenagers are script kiddies. That is far from the truth. But I can still obtain a lot of information about who comes here by their age.

It doesn't matter. That answer is there to attract the people who aren't serious about the poll. That way, they still get to have their fun, and my poll remains accurate.

My best friends younger brother (14-15) was trying to be a scriptkiddie/hacker but everything he downloaded had a trojan or a virus in bedded in it. We ran Norton Virus scan on his computer he had 5 trojans 3 viruses of various types. An one of the was a back orfice trojan which allows someone complete control of your computer remotely. We had to fdisk and recreate the partitions it to get it off there a normal format wouldnt do it. Now he just downloads mp3's and pron. =)

I'm 46. I worked for Intel from '77 to '80. Got to see the first 8088 and 8086 chips come through the production test floor, they had serial numbers so if one turned up missing we got to turn the place upside down looking for it.

Then I got to see IBM people come in and analyze components for their "new computer" in '80. I was there for the birth of the PC. Let's see, a 4.77mhz, 8088 (8 bit bus, 16 bit internal), no hard drive, 128kb ram, monochrome monitor, 360k floppy and/or tape storage, all this for the low price of $3000.00. And we all thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread.

It's sure come a long way since then!

Hey mystere, like your 6 year old son I too like to build things and blow them up! Im into bomb making and have made and can make many diffrent kinds. Of course my friends and I go out in places with no people or houses to have our fun. So far it has been safe for the most part. There was one time my friend caught a piece of glass in the leg but he is ok and we learned to make that bomb a little diffrently... or run faster! Hmm.. How did I get on bombs from an age thread?

I know the groupings, but that isn't the grouping I wanted to use.
The flaming and AntiPoints abuse have already started (the AntiPoints abuse has anyway). Not too long after posting this poll, I got negative AntiPoints with this comment:

Go away little boy. How can someone with so many posts only have so few antipoints?

He must be one of the abusers. If he reads this, the answer to the question is "*******s like you".

Getting inet access about... 7 years ago (MY GOD!! 7 YEARS AGO ALREADY!!!) re-launched my interest, mainly in networking (we had 2 LANed PCs at that point and shared net access with software proxy and that was just so cool to me!)

Anyways, now am in University (first semester) in comp. science but I'm quite disapointed with the courses up to now... Did 3 years of "cegep" (aka college here, I live in Québec, different school structure, it goes between secondary 5 and university) in comp science too and loved it (finished like 2nd in grades)... I learn alot by myself to (setting up home LAN and etc...)

Petemcevoy, the educational system in Belgian is not the same as the American one, I guess. The university studies of philosophy take four years (two years candidate, two years licentiate, don't know if it's the same term in English - well, it's the same term, but I don't know if it's about the same...). Becoming a doctor takes another four years (I see where the confusion is coming from - I didn't know the D. in Ph.D. was for doctor, I thought it was for degree ;) ) . So, I'm just a licentiate in philosophy... No intentions on becoming a doctor...

We'll, I think the subject of age in the computers and technology world is a great one. This is one place where people of all ages interact with each other as equals.
One might suggest that those of us that are a bit older, say gen-X and older generaly know more about computers and thier many applications in our lives because we all saw the internet come into exsistance and some of us even helped it along.
The younger guys and gals have a step up on us though. They were brought up by computers and not just the TV. Kids are learning every aspect of computer use at a much younger age. My younger brother of only 13 uses the computer everyday. He's picking up application knowlage much faster than I was at his age. He is exposed to things that were just being made when I was using my 'state of the art' Atari ST.
Oh well at this point I'm just rambling.

Once again, let me stress that I do NOT assume that all teenagers are script kiddies. That would be hypocritical on my part. Some people still seem to think that I'm making that assumption.

I too am just learning code and starting the long process called college. At 19, I have learned c++ and VB, and I am planning on learning more. I just hope to learn something useful, instead of just how to make a text box say something. I have played with computers for about 10 years now, so I started off with a old 8088.

Petemcevoy, the educational system in Belgian is not the same as the American one, I guess.

Becoming a doctor takes another four years (I see where the confusion is coming from - I didn't know the D. in Ph.D. was for doctor, I thought it was for degree ;) ) . So, I'm just a licentiate in philosophy... No intentions on becoming a doctor...

Negative; the right terms are:

Candidate = BA (Bachelor)
Licentiate = MA (Master)
Doctor = Ph. D.

It's intresting how everyone (well mostly) acts very mature on these forums even though there's a lot of 15 - 19 year olds. I don't see a lot of swearing unless they're flames other than that this is a very 'mellow' forum.
oh, and i'm 15 :).

Hi there!

Most say that women tend to shy away from talking about age. Oh well, not for me, I do not need to hide mine. I am happy to say that I am a big sis to most guys and girls here bec. of my age, which is 25 :)

A blessed day to all!

i agree hellbringer87!

i've crossed paths with some people in their 20's, 30's, 40's and 50's who act less mature, are less informed and aren't nearly as articulate as most of the teenagers here. in my opinion, the teenagers at AO are quite an exceptional group of people.

I'm sorry, but I'm not the one who brought this one back to the top. I'm just as amazed it came back as you are. I thought it was dead and gone too, but apparently not. It's at 8 pages so far. I wonder how much longer it's going to get.

I do like the movie-style pitch though. ;)

Looking at all these threads, its funny that almost anyone under 18 claims that they are a script-kiddie immedietly after stating their age. :D

My first computer was an Abacus!! then it was a slide rule... then I started with something that used power, a Comadore Vic 20... You guessed it.... I am older than GOD! (If god is 45!)
but not old enough to retire for a good batch of years....
I remember in school, there were no computers, no cable TV, We used a 16 mm movie projector that had to be manually threaded.... My first access to a Video Tape maching was a big AMPEX reel to reel, did not record just played big Tapes.
I did manged to use a SONY portable black&white TV tape recorder that taped 1/2 hr per
tape, we shared that between several schools....
Portable is an oxymoron!!! It came in a suitcase and it took 2 of us to move
it around without giving us all hernias!

I managed to dig up an AMPEX and a Sony VTR from that era and they still work!!!
