Hey, don't discriminate on age! :)
Though, some younger teenagers tend to go through mood swings in which they
alternatively moan about how bad the world is and then suddenly respond to
evey MOC posted in the past month or so. Also, some less 'mature' people
tend to post with bad grammar (A gripe with me, even though I am far from
perfect) and use cuss words and/or insulting phrases. (just as bad to me)
But I still love the interaction between all different types of people here.
You never know whem some people might be 13 and others be 47...
