I was wondering -- are there people out there, like myself, who are in their post-20s and are playing Age of Mythology? Individuals who like the game, but don't see it as the focus of their existence; who enjoy trading strategies and providing thoughtful comments to others, but don't want to flame or insult people?
Actually, being a newcomer to the Age of Empires series of games, and therefore to forums like this one, I do have a sense that the discussion is a bit more civil, and that's a welcome relief.
Anyhow, in the name of building a mature, flame-free community, I've started up an Age of Mythology clan/community site. I welcome anyone to join who just like talking intelligently about the game, who prizes being respectful and courteous to others. I'm particularly interested in meeting older players (like myself, I'm pushing 30 in a couple weeks....) I also particularly welcome newcomers to RTS games or Age of Mythology; perhaps we can even set up games among people who aren't die-hard gaming experts and who just want to have a bit of competitive, but not overly hard-core fun....
The site is located at Feel free to send me comments and feedback on the site! It's my first online gaming community, and I'm rather proud of the effort, although I'm aware I'll probably have to fix a lot of things. Thanks for reading this, and good hunting!
