I'd like to make a sincere request / suggestion

War Eagle.
I lurked here for many years before I finally made an account about 10 years ago.
I completely understand the many reasons many posters do not choose to put personal info here.
I also believe that more than 90% of posters on the AU board are sincere and true Auburn fans and love Auburn, being grads or not - it doesn't matter to me. At the same time, there is a very important and large gap between constructively
debating anything and all things Auburn with an 18 year old (I have an 18 year old son, and I am 52) and an 80 year old AU fan. Perspectives, and such.
At a minimum and all other personal info aside, and I have been trying to figure this out for quite a while - is it too much to ask posters here to share their ages? I have no intent to belittle anyone here because of their age, but I do believe that it would help lead to more constructive discussion amongst us all. JMHO. In other words, I'd rather not waste my time trying to constructively debate, discuss anything AU with most 18 year olds. From my personal experiences as a know-nothing, arrogant 18 year-old some years ago, and trying to have a decent conversation with my own 18 year-old son is if not impossible, nearly void of value. Many of you I am sure have similar experiences and understand what I am trying to say.
Again, this is simply a sincere request / suggestion. Regardless of age and all other factors, Happy War Eagle Day to everyone.

Are you serious? You get on here and post like a completely drunken sailor and are totally incomprehensible most of the time. Spare me.

I'm all about more action on the board. Doesn't matter to me the topic most of the time.

I don't see any harm in asking.

Yes, I am, and yes I do, and maybe the incomprehensible part is due to your age, IQ, or both. Spare you what, exactly? I'll give you benefit of the doubt and just assume you are in 18 year old range there pete. Can I just call you dick?

I don't really care what you call me. I just think it is beyond silly for you to act all superior and think you are so much above someone of a younger age when you constantly post and act like a child.
If you must know Harry, my real name is Larry Tate, I am 67 and an expat living in Anton Valley, Panama. I go by Pedro locally.

Thank you Larry / WEPete. That was all I was asking for in the first place. Truly sorry and unfortunate if I come off that way to you or anyone else. It is not intentional. Pedro is fine too, amigo.

Amen Jang (for today

5 DUI John works just fine for me. One more, and I'm out, so I am always happy and thankful to be reminded.
