Ditto here. 
My baby who was born around the time I started playing is 17 now and in college!
I was 23 when I first started back in 2004-2005, now 41
I was playing the Wow Beta in 2004 when I was 30, I became a blizzard fanboy with starcraft, then diablo 2, then WC3, then wow.
TBC was my favorite xpac, got bored with Cata and unsubbed. Rejoined during Legion, loved it! Enjoyed BFA and Shadowlands.
I am now 48, DF is not for me and I unsubbed last week.
I was 30 when the open beta hit, my co-worker and I tried it out (we were EQ veterans and currently playing Planetside together when that happened).
As there was a mas exodus from Planetside at the time due to the inclusion of BFRs, our entire guild (outfit) broke up and most of us moved to the freshly launched World of Warcraft.
Absolutely blew us away. It seemingly fixed all the problems we had with Everquest. A bunch of other co-works started playing after hearing us constantly talking about it at work.
Between the launch of Cata and itâs first patch, almost my entire friend group and guild quit playing. Cata was EXREMELY unpopular for most of the people I had been playing with since vanilla.
Anyways, Iâm now 47 and still hanging out here. My partner still plays with me almost every night, and we have a nice handful of in-game friends.
Dragonflight breathed fresh air into the game for us. We are having more fun now than we have in years. Shadowlands ALMOST got us to quit playing. We just switched to Classic until DF came out.

I started when I was 16 in 2004 when WoW first came out!! Iâm now 34 turning 35 in June. Itâs pretty crazy to think Iâve been playing WoW that long.
But Iâve enjoyed every moment of it, so many great memories.
Iâm soon starting a family!! Got married last August, baby is due in July!! I canât wait to share WoW with them, I hope it keeps on going as long as it can!!
WoW was released November 23, 2004, so itâs 18 years 2 1/2 months old. Come to think of it, I started playing almost exactly 18 years ago
Started WoW

i was 28 now 47
Started back in '07 at 10 years oldâŚ
Now here in DF Iâm 25 years old turning 26 in October.
Feels wild that WoW has been a major part of most of my life.
Hmm⌠2006 maybe? Not sure how to check for the exact number.
I was single digits then and im not 30 now. Been a long time.
The mid-life crisis comes to everyone sooner or later, usually when you realize that you have fewer days ahead of you than behind you. For some it lasts between 4 and 4:15 on a Sunday afternoon. For others it lasts decades.
It begins and ends with a question: âIs this all there is?â The answer is usually âYes,â because by middle age youâve become whatever it is youâre likely to become. Thereâs still time to change, but real change is really damn hard at this age. These are the cases where it can last a long time.
Those of us who are lucky enough to have achieved most of what we set out to do can accept the answer with some degree of peace. We can answer, âYes, and thatâs enough.â

Dude, youâre a Gen-Xer.
Iâm 10 years older than you and still not considered a real boomer⌠they call us (apparently) âGeneration Jonesâ! Iâve always thought of myself as a âtail-end boomerâ, but apparently, my older brother and sister get that âhonourâ.
And I was in my 40s when I started at the very tail end of Vanilla WoW, and am now in my 60s for Dragonflight.
