What happens when we turn 25?

Hey hey!

I was wondering what would happen once we've reached the upper age bracket?

    I think you can stay on here but the signposting might not be appropriate.

    What Lubna says, I think as long as your still respecting guidelines and things it’s okay to stick around. I am over 25, and 30 actually but I’ve been allowed to stick around. There are also older users. I don’t think The Mix are too strict. Also like Lubna said the signposts and things may be different as they are mainly for 25 and under. 
    Hope that has helped :heart:

    I'm 38, I joined when I was 9 and at that time there were plenty of older posters with one in his 60s.

    ETA I've just realised I've been a member of this site for half my life.

    What these guys said @Salix_alba_2019. :)

    We sometimes move people on if there are problems with their use of the community, but generally if someone's been here for a long time and they get older than 25, they know how to use the community well and there are no issues. @Skive and @*BananaMonkey* are good examples of that.

    Signposting might be less relevant for over 25's, and we'll generally prioritise under 25's for any opportunities with limited spaces. Buy beyond that, nothing really changes. :)

    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
    The truth resists simplicity.
    I no longer work at The Mix! If you need anything, message or tag @TheMix

    Ha! I was going to say - you really were raised here. That would be pretty next level.
