Out of all the years you've currently been alive, what age was your favourite, and why?

For me, I'd probably have to say 7. Not entirely sure why, I just remember most of my fondest childhood memories being from that time. There were a couple of good game releases that year too (2002), such as Morrowind, Super Mario Sunshine, Pikmin (we got it late in the UK), Super Smash Bros Melee (same as aforementioned) and Grand Theft Auto 3 (which I didn't play when I was 7 mind you, no need to call the cops on account of poor parenting).

Hmm... I can't remember a specific age, but when I was 10-12 life was just filled with joy. I was so excited for the smallest of things, but now all I ever dream of is being able to even relax and have a breather.

I don't think , I have one. Since I haven't done things anything special that I am fond of since the day I have been born (but I don't really remember my childhood clearly well). But if I have to choose the worst one, I have to say the current one.

16-18.

I was still reaping all the benefits of childhood, while not having any of the concerns of adulthood.

My favorite point in my life was during the Summer of 2006, and I was 10 back then. I didn't even have to do much, and it was a great - I'd stay up late to play this online game I loved so much, go swimming every day, constantly hassle my grandma for two dollars so I could buy an Italian soda from this stop down the street and best of all, I had NOTHING to worry about.

If your answer to this question isn't always "right now" or "this year", then you are doing something wrong.

All of my childhood was really good, hard to choose just 1 favourite year from that. But I can't say I have it bad now either. :)
My worst year was probably when I was 19 years old.

I'd say age 9 - 11/12, I remember that 2004/05 was a particularly good time in my life. Everything just went very well for me. Filled with hopes and positiveness. I was engaged in a lot of things and really enjoyed my existence.

When I was 16 and 17 (2010/12) was also a good time in my life. Not super but I was quite satisfied. I had two great teachers, I had made new friends and it felt like I had left the troublesome early years as a teenager behind me.

My life was pretty great at age ten. I wasn't insecure about anything yet, I had friends (like one, but it was a good friend), I did sports, I did music, I wasn't shy yet, I had good grades, etc.
That being said, I was a shitty person, but I was very happy.

Hmm, that's a nice question TC. I'd probably say my 6th or 7th age, back those days I had most fun with videogames. That's my one and only reasoning heh.

Back in 2007-08, when I first started getting into anime/manga, year I read a lot of my favorite books and manga, watched my favorite movies and anime, and played some of my favorite games for the first time. Not to mention I had double the friends before I moved.

Now is great too, but those were the days where everyday was something new and fun. Mm, great times.

Either my last year of high school or first year of college, so age ranged from 17 years old to 19 years old in that period.

Very minimal responsibilities , yet being treated as an adult/given my own space + lots of free time . Had closer friends in 12th grade than I did any other year in HS. Was a year full of hope and promise , getting amazing grades, got accepted into good collleges, had some experiences with girlfriend, had cute girls hugging me all 12th grade haha (due mainly to a close friend).

First year of college I in a suite with other freshman who loved videogames so we played every weekend xD Almost everyone I meet very nice to me. Lots of free time for video games, anime, hanging out with suitemates. I had a lot of anxiety for my 2nd year and still a good bit for my 3rd and 4th years, something that wasn't present in my 1st year there.
