I'm sorry did you use 39 years old and "Old School" in the same paragraph? I literally have NO IDEA what your talking about since the last Video Game I Played was "Asteroids". #ATARI

Let's just agree that you have to break the 1/2 Century mark to be considered "old school". And, yes I'll be the old guy shaking my cane at you. LOL!!!

Old AF (53) MMORPG player here going on 20 years. Nephews play Overwatch, son plays Fortnite. If I could play my game on the cars display, I wouldn't care if the car only DCFC at 10 kWh, time would still fly by 😁. The new rig.

I get the plate and appreciate it (BTW this thread makes me feel old, I didn't know that wasn't still a term), but I can't help but think some younger folks might see it and wonder who Ady is and what you want to do with her. :)

Ha ha! I used to play WoW with a guy whose toon was named OFG (Old Fart Gamer). This was about 15 or more years ago and he was in his 70s then. HE was old-school! 🤪🐩

I want a photo of someone playing on a gaming computer that is being powered by a Lightning. Priorities man.

You can't exclude me...

This is 1 of 3 gaming stations in my house. Another is opposite it and one is in a detached man cave with a 55" Odyssey Arc.

Let's be real, I'd wager a disproportionate number of middle-age gamers own Mach E's and an even higher portion of that group haunt these forums like it's a modern BBS or IRC channel
IRC channels? Sheesh. You whippersnappers! I can remember the days of 300bps modems and BBSs charging by the minute. Log in, print out your messages, log out. Type replies into a note pad or word processor and copy, log back in and paste into the reply. Rinse, repeat. 🤪🐩

@HuntingPudel I used IRC via telnet before it was cool and had GUIs. BBSes too! GOTTA LOVE BEING OLD.

BBSes too
Hey ... I ran a BBS when I was 8 years old. I had to convince my mom to get me 2 inbound POTs lines (without long distance), but she was cool and did it. Then I managed to get an 800 number associated to one of them, we won't talk about how I did that...

You don't need to be tooooo old to appreciate these things.
