A lot of 18's on the nose and over, use this side of the forumz. It's a guideline not really enforced.
I think however it would be agreeable if there were an area for those 18 - 25, not quite teenager, not quite adult. Then this place could remain naive and carefree.

This is a good point actually and agree with this , I'm 23 so fall in that 'category' , As see quiet a few people looking to talk and make friends ect but feel I'm just outside that teenager side and never know whether to reply or not lol .

Just not sure where or to whom one would petition such a thing. It wouldn't take much to implement an additional sub-forum. I'll look into to it.

'Teens' - the years of a person's age from 13 to 19 - in theory, but does not always fit...
You're not really in the middle of your childhood anymore…


The forum does say:
Hey, I need a diabetic friend too I dont know anybody who has it

This subsection was recently divided. When this thread was first posted, we only had a subsection for teenagers. Now, the young adult section is for 18 all the way up to the 80 year olds who still act like young adults.
