Blender Demographics: Age

General Forums Off-topic Chat
1

Ok, second poll and I’ll leave it at that. I’m 22 personally. Again no need to post your age in the thread, but please do participate in the poll!

I hope these age ranges are ok, I tried to do it by social age groups, I think. I dunno! :o

edit: After delving into forum etiquette I realise this thread may be frowned upon, as forte brought this sticky to my attention, and apologise in advance to the mods if its a problem. I won’t make any more polls about statistics.

edit2: It’s been suggested that you post the age at which you first found Blender, so feel free to do so if you like :slight_smile: But note that the poll is for you current age, not the age at which you started using Blender :wink:

wheres the poll, though?

edit: ah there it is :slight_smile:

3

and in the top age demographic at the time of my vote :smiley:

  1. 20 in October.
5

im 31 and the first one in my age range…

6

24 now.

Heh, I love to see those people who put “I’m 12. 13 in January!” They just seem to grow up so much quicker than the rest of us.

7

I’m 21, 22 in November :-p
In both polls i was in the largest group on the moment of voting

8

I’m 16. Teenager for another handful of years yet. :slight_smile:

Good idea doing these demographics. But haven’t an age poll been done somewhere here before? I don’t know, maybe not.

Hey Man, wow I expected you to be older! I’m now even more impressed and humbled by your skillz.

As to there being another age poll, maybe there was one, but to be honest I didn’t look :smiley:

Cough, cough->Posted at the top of the off-topic forum->cough, cough.

It contains links to seven other age polls.

11

Oh shit :eek:. Well if there’s seven already, what’s one more eh? :o

edit: actually it’s not so bad, I see that the newest of those age polls is from 2005. But yeh, I realise the mods don’t want this sort of thing to become a habit.

So, this is kinda like a Blender Census? Want the ages of my family members as well, for the sake of completion?

13

:confused: Nope, it would just be for the forum goers and users of blender. You could call it an unofficial census I guess.

14

…

i’ll be 18 in february.

edit: i started in march of '07.

15

you should also ask how old they were when they started using blender seriously i was 14 and am now 16

16
  1. Makes me a minority I see. Does that mean I’m cool if I wear strange clothes? :stuck_out_tongue:
17

I am 52, and have been doing some form of 2D and 3D as a hobby since CorelDraw 3, when Corel had 75% of their market. Anyone here used programs like KeyCad for DOS, or Virtus Walk Thru Pro?

18

That’s a good idea, though it would not necessarily need to be in poll format. Maybe that’s a good one for the off topic section, though I won’t be making any more threads like that for a while I think. I’m getting a bit trigger happy with starting threads as it is. :rolleyes:

Minorities that wear strange clothes are always cool :cool:

  1. 18 in may '08. Started blender (and 3d) in January.

Its ok to have a new age poll every year, as a matter of fact it is a good thing it shows how much the user base is shifting over the years, how easy blender becomes to learn and many other things. Someone should make a chart.

Oh and am 20, but I found blender when I was 19. I wish I found it as soon as I got into 3D around 5 years ago. I started off using Rhino, what fun that was…
