Hi y'all

I don't know if this is a bit too private, but I have been wondering. How old are ppl around here. I mean the big coders... I finds it facinating that they are so good at coding, and then I think why can't I do what they can. But thats 'cos I keep thinking of everyone being of my age, and of course they are not.

So, how old are you, how did you come into coding, and on a scale form 1-10 how good are you...

that'll be all
ONi

PS I'm only 15:p, so it's ok if you think i'm a little stupid noob:p... but I have been following the scene everyday in 6 months, so....:)

Man is nice to see so much tallent in so many young members. I mi self can code almost cost me mi marrige 6 years ago when i used to code for the XBOX seen. Well im 30 so i have been working with software engeniring for over 11 years so i like to think of mi C/C++ as atleast a 8/10 but how good you are doesnt have to to whit your suxess look at NJ & ZX & DARK they do so great because there dedicated. So Oni mi advice to you is simple is this what you want to do for the rest of your life. I mean working with PC's because if so now its the time to start reserch and practice. I have atached a web where you can get an idea for it.

Pretty cool thread, man.
I'm 27 and married with children...But like my wife would say, I'm really a child at heart cuz my interest and amazement towards video games and comic books will never cease....Coding? I'll be honest and say I'm a 2 in C++ (been learning on my own for the past 5 months, when I get the time) But my real skills are honed towards Drawing, Painting and making 2D Sprites.
I've been following the Emulation/Homebrew/Hacking scene since the first days of Zsnes...right after I sold my Snes with 20 games to buy a Playstation with Street Fighter Alpha, Tekken and Ridge Racer....I know...What Was I Thinking?!? Seriously.... Recently It's all about my Moded Gamecube and PSP...which I'll hopefully unbrick someday....I'm also looking into getting a PS3 sometime in the future, if money allows it. One more thing....I've probably said it before but what the heck...DCEMU FOREVA BABY!!!!!!!!!!

I'm another old fart, we have a few around, at 29 (though I feel a lot older these days, I blame my life for that). Coding ability? well I can just about remember some Basic but not much so I'd have to give myself a large 0 for that but being invloved on the news side I may as well jam my oar into the thread eh?

I am probably a 4 out of 10 in lua (still learning the advanced stuff) and like a .75 out of 10 in C. I am planning to get better at both though.

I'm a 27 year old sys/network admin. I think computers are in my blood. I have a photo somewhere of me when I'm like 5 or 6 years old tapping away on my spectrum 48k writing some lame ass basic program.

I don't really code that well with any 'modern' languages (C just baffles me), although I have been known to whip up a monster shell script when it is needed :)

glad you made this thread, I was curious as to how old people were here I pictured people being bout 20-30 years old. I'm 14 (yeah i know), and am just starting to open the door to emulation, homebrew, coding and all that jazz. who knows, in the future, I may just get into coding, but i don't know how the hell i'm gonna learn it. Not sure how many people in my high school know how
