How old were you when you found/joined NS?

So I know the stats, or at least think I know them, and the largest amount of NS is between 16 and 20 or something if I recall. But is this an aging group of original NS'ers? I'm curious to see how old people were when they found NS or joined. I know I lurked for a year before posting.

Is the 14 year old NS'er assumption from before, or just because everyone seems to act 14 even though they are older?


To start this off, I'm 17 and I was 15 when I joined, 14 when I found NS.


I did searchbar, and nobody asked since '05. This probably doesn't interest you guys at all though, eh?

nomensteven told me about NS while going up the chairlift a local jib hill...after confirming the site was legit with jakers i signed up as like freestyleskier189 or something...then [holland] then [sir.holland], and now lucifer...where i think will stay for the duration of my time on this site as i made the icon to match!
