Is TD popular with young folks and those currently in college at LSU or elsewhere?

It seems clear that there are fewer and fewer young folks participating in this type of medium, as big social media sort of killed online message boards. Most message boards that were very popular before social media either no longer exist or are barely used. Yet TD has somehow managed to survive and do well, despite those challenges.

Chicken, can one of your statisticians put together an age distribution of TD's users? I'd be interested to know the demographics of those who frequent this site.

Any guesses on age distribution?

18-25
26-35
36-45
46-55
55+

I'd say the plurality, if not majority, of posters are 30-45.

No. We discussed this the other day but it’s been years since we had a good Finals Week thread, indicating a shift in demo. shite used to keep me busy instead of studying

Ok cool.... I’ve been here for 15 years, but there are a ton of very young people that come to this site.... problem is they haven’t lived enough life to really give an opinion..... I get bashed on here all the time because I am old school... you really think I care.... and a bunch of the younger posters ACT like they know so much about certain topics it’s just stupid...... live and learn.....

Nope. They stick to snapchat and Instagram exclusively.

I’m actually in the 18-25 range, mostly a lurker. Been lurking since I was 13 because of some family telling me about the site

I dont know.

If I see a 20s-40s guy in Portland wearing LSU gear, I assume they're a poster and try to avoid any TD related activities in their viewpoint.

Sat close to a rando on a plane once, going to los Angeles. When we landed i saw him checking TD, and laughed to myself.

You’re going to have a very warped sense of reality.

I’ve seen a picture of PJ. He is for sure not in college. And last week someone said 777Tiger was an old pilot.Many of TulaneLSU’s escapades happened several years ago. So not college age either. That’s all I got.
