prob 14, since a lot of kids instead of playing chess just chat in forums (I mean the feature is cool but the play button still exists)

Considering active users who play games, somewhere between 18 and 35 is my guess. I would think it's more likely closer to the younger end within that range.
It would be interesting to see poll results on this matter.
If we counted only forums, probably somewhere around the teens. If the whole website, somewhere from 20 to 40.

Do people not know what average means? A person with the age of 80 would have significantly more effect on the average then a person around the most common age say 13. Therefore the average would probably be around 25.
the average age is 8 because of gothamchess most likely
And I am 15
