Lovejoy Well, what can I say? Having read the bio's so far, I gotta say that I feel OLD. When I read the description of the guild I was attracted to the concept of "mature" players - but I think mature in my case means elderly.
I live in beautiful Cornwall (UK) just five miles from Lands End if you know the area. I am 38 (yes - 38) and somewhat in early and splendid retirement. I was playing Warhammer before many of you lot were born - so I do feel old. After 20 years of working, one child, one wife and now the good life, I found out about WAR.
A keen rpg-er in my youth (the 1980's) I really enjoyed WHFRP when it followed on from WHFB, but life and work got in the way - now I have some more time to spare I am looking forward to wasting lots of it as a merciless mage :twisted: ... but I am somewhat concerned at the age difference - the guild is not as mature as I believed: perhaps I am too old for you young thrusters? Grandpa Simpson moi?
For better or worse...

Well I think that only time will tell with your concern. Chances are, once the game is launched, we will be getting a bigger variety of folk, so Grandpa Lovejoy may not be hobbling along on his zimmerframe alone. :P
I don't think you need to worry about the maturity and I don't think anyone here has a problem with older players. As long as everyone can cooperate and contribute with no problems, which I believe this guild can do, then it's fine.
My two cents.
And retirement at 38? Lucky you. :D

Well, I think most people here are rather mature (barring the occasional immature-yet-hilariously-random humour).
So, uh... welcome? :D

Agreed! Welcome!

Most of us are Mature *cough*anoobish*cough* but we like to enjoy ourselves so we can come off as immature.

I'm often told I'm mature for my age. Does that count?
Heh. Hehe. I said "count".
Anyway welcome to II. It's good to see that there's the occasional old man (no offense meant) around on the internet.
Also retirement at 38? What the hell was your job? Did you develop a best-selling MMORPG or something?
