Most veterans on this site joined when they were really young. I joined when I was 10 (11?) and I know OJ did as well.
Most new users are that age too.

Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.

Most veterans of the site were in the 10-13 age range when they joined around 2009-2012ish. Now, ages range from probably around 10 to 30-something. Nobody cares much how old anyone else is, so don't worry about it.

If you want to take it exact you're probably supposed to be 13 for social communities like this forum.
I even believe to remember that the privacy policy on this site refers to this law at some point. See COPPA

How serious you're taking this lies on your end I suppose.

Usu and Karyete also were about 10 / 11 years old when they started here. It depends on yourself if you want to be serious with your life in this community and follow common sense, or if you want to be known as a n00b. Your age doesn't imply to us that you would be a n00b, but pointless topics and posts of yours would do. And on the other side, I've also seen significantly older members with bad posting manners.

Try to be nice, try not to be off-topic when posting and try to care about grammar and spelling as good as you can, if this is what you're worrying about. Then we won't care that much about your age. :)

Thank you, FF.

Rating standards: show
1 star: (0 - 5.75 in LDC) These levels need a lot of work. They're totally un-elaborated, and/or inherently flawed due to things like cutoff or enemy spam, or they're untested and there are too many bugs gameplay-wise, in short: Many many things went wrong in such a level.

2 stars: (6 - 9.75) These levels are not terrible, but poor. They're too short, lack scenery or they have errors and/or bugs but it's still barely enjoyable. Again, spend more effort and try to do better. (if it's your first level that I rate two stars, it's not bad. There's a long way you can still go)

3 stars: (10 - 12.75) These levels are about mediocre. They may be still a little bit short, the gameplay is fine but not very original and graphics are also solid, but not breath-taking. Try to keep improving!

4 stars: (13 - 15) These levels are nice, but not the best. Effort has been put into them, there can some professionality be seen in gameplay and graphics, they're a nice experience to play, but there are still things you can do to make it even better. Try to go the extra mile!

5 stars: (15.25 - 20) These are really great levels, those which, as said, I would give more than 15 in an LDC. These suffice many high requirements, and it already goes into subtleties if you want to make them better. These levels are successful all around. Bravo.

These are just general principles I try to follow when rating. Sometimes I don't leave a further comment when rating, most times I do, if you have questions about it, feel free to ask further.

The only thing you'd really be concerned about for that age is swearing, and even then there's a swear filter. If you like being on the site, then stay.

Like Shroom said, I wasn't even 11 when I joined. If anything Runouw.com has actually helped me to become a more mature and social person.

I let this guy moderate my server. Can confirm, I thought he was 14/16 for a while

Heck, I turned 12 exactly 17 days ago, but no one probably guessed that.
Might be ready in a bit.
