I agree with Chets comment about the ageism, it really isn't fair to discriminate against a person based on their age.
Although age does determine experience and maturity to a certain extent, it doesn't explain the full deal and you're always going to have circumstances in which a younger person displays signs of maturity and intelligence beyond someone who's a few years older than them.
I'm 17, I don't think I've ever made an irrelevent post that has nothing to do with the subject or is just simply a plea for attention.
Is this 19+ idea solely based on having an "intelligent" section, or is it just to grant some sort of superiority complex to the older members?
I personally think it's ridiculous and insulting...
