I remember 3-4 yrs ago there used to be many 1995 people around. Now mainly what I see are ones in 2000-2001.

The inferior generation has overtook this site?

Where are all my 1990s fellas?

1988 guy here. A lot of the older users are still here, but they don't post on the main forum much. A lot of them just post in clubs, and some of them migrated to Discord, and only talk to people there.

1987 checking in! You're certainly not too old for MAL. I don't think age matters much on this site. When discussing anime and so on, I don't care how old a user is; I listen to what they have to say on its own merit.

Age doesn't matter (on this site). It doesn't matter what generation you were born in, were all connected for our common liking of anime. Regardless of age, you're another person.

Most of the older folks outgrow this forum and move on to the chans or reddit. Some of them either stay there or just stop watching anime in general because of work and other commitments.
Forums in general are dying, I remember back in the early 2000s when art sites like Crimson Daggers and conceptart were the go to places to see where the really good talent was and now, nobody really goes there. Its dead and slowly getting forgotten.

I'm born in 1988 and I used to be on this site around 2009 and just came back and recently saw an old nickname I recognized from that time.

It's scary how much time flies.

1997. Seeing people born in 2004, 2005, etc. has made me feel older... probably because I am getting older (that's kind of how time works, right?).

i'm positive there's people in their mid 30s still here.

Oh maybe, maybe it's the clothes we wear
The tasteless bracelets and the dye in our hair
Or maybe, maybe it's our nowhere towns or our nothing places
But we're trash, you and me
We're the litter on the breeze
We're the lovers on the streets
Just trash, me and you
It's in everything we do
It's in everything we do

Why would you think you're too old for MAL, do you know this website creator's age even? time flies and we get older sure, tho there's just no age restriction of how old you are for using this site.. even if you think you outgrow the community by now still old is gold they say

and ye, another person in their mid 20's here, never gonna give up or quit (at least my current life is supportive of my hobbies)

1995 here, still alive and kicking!

Age doesn't matter when it comes to anime. There is something for everyone.

My conclusion; we're already getting old XD, new generation coming through.
It happens. When you go looking, we 90's are still around though

1990 here, one of the oldest in this thread by the looks of it aside from one.

I (and probably a lot of others) are just too busy with work to spend as much time on forums as I used to unfortunately. I still watch just as much anime as I always have done though and that will probably never change.

How come you never got bored of Anime?! such dedication! I've started watching a couple of years ago and already got bored of it, although I still enjoy some Manga and Light Novels.

Anyway, 1980 guy here, as if it really matters.

You're never too old for forums, anime, or any other hobby where your enjoyment of said hobby will be of little to no consequence to others.

Feeling forced to stop doing something you enjoy because of pointless social pressure is a really sad thing. If you are one of the people who are more susceptible to social pressure, just try not to think about it too much. You're fine.
