: I couldn't find the place where you said that age does not count, that maturity is what counts, and you are mature for your age. I am SURE that you posted it, though, even though I looked through all your posts on the 4 and main board and it wasn't there. Maybe it was one of those messages that got deleted because of the spammer.

I think this is a good place to think about what the meaning and importance of the context and situation is. Yes, I posted a message saying things like that. If I'm not wrong, it was a poster, a rather old one.

That poster (spammer) used my age as an argument against my ability as the moderator of the board. And the others, if I'm not mistaken, the other 2 moderators are younger than I am. I replied saying that the physical age doesn't matter and I found myself mature for my age (which isn't strictly my idea, it's what people in real life have said to me). Either that or then it was a comment to any random person who was biased against young people.

Now, maybe we just have different ways of looking at things, Anonymous. You might just read what's there, I'm always interested in the context and motives behind what someone does. It's anyone's call to say which is the better way, but I'm quite happy with mine.

At any rate, I don't think it's reasonable to describe that message of mine as 'bragging' in any way.

PS. How old are you?
