I was just flicking through the channels on the good old idiot box, saw What's Good For You on Channel 9, they had this little fact thing saying:
The average age for video gamers is 24. And 60% of gamers are male.

Interesting hey? Like 90% of the community here is under 18 .. and we've had 1 female member in the past 3 weeks, where 85 people have voted on the poll. That's 1 in 85.

Some odd stats you dug up there. I was expecting the average age to be a little bit lower.

Maybe the females here just aren't very open about it or call themselves guys names to fit in?

Just like "guys go into maths chat rooms and pose as girls to get help" - A Current Affair.

I did laugh then realised... hey it could be true... IF THERE WERE MATHS CHATROOMS!

hmmmm, 60% of gamers are male?

so 40% are female...

that makes no sense.

in my whole life, I have met 3 other female gamers who would admit it to others (including myself)

chasers rocks





whats good for you also said video games are healthy in a way:
Playing a game is equal walking 2km and it increases your metabolic rate by 40% and increases heart or blood rate in a good way.
edited because i made it look like chaserers said it

He appears to be one of those random people who register, drop off a few pointless comments that are totally off the topic of the thread, possibly gets banned by asking where to download full games or just leaves as swiftly as they came.
