Someone might want to put "Age" at the top of those number categories of the survey. Best of luck in getting the data you need; I've submitted mine.

I made my account in 2009, and I normally don't make accounts on things for a while. So my best bet is 2008. Good thing it says 2008-2009 anyways though lol.

I was worried about figuring out what year I started reading too, since I only know when my forum account here was made; fortunately the "before 2005" option had me covered :)
By the way, is the "results" page I got after completing the survey supposed to show my own answers, or does it show the same thing for everyone? Two of the answers matched mine, but the last one was different (showing 2005-7 instead of pre-2005) and I'm wondering if I clicked the wrong bubble by mistake. |

Hovering over the bars shows it's only counting one ballot for me(one which matches nothing I entered). And here I thought it was just proof of me being second.

No matter what gender I choose, according to the poll I'm always female, whereas I'm quite sure I'm male...
The other answers matched though. |

I probably started reading ANN in 2002; I've been around for a while, although there was a period between 2005 and 2011 when I barely paid any attention to it (or anime et al).
I arbitrarily declare today to be my ten-year anniversary. So... cake?
I think that it might display the results of a 25-29 year old female who started reading ANN between 2005 and 2007 by default. |

I'm from the Class of 2009. From what I remember there was a very short time between discovering ANN and posting here. And posting. And posting. And posting...

2010 myself.
Read a few articles on ANN in 2009 though. Didn't actually start coming once a week until 2010 though. Shortly registered after. |

In a weird twist, though my forum account goes back to 2007, I'm pretty sure I didn't start actively reading ANN until over a year later. The account was created to post thoughts on this article, which I followed from somewhere else.

I've been reading Anime News Network since you posted the article about Bandai starting to sell anime in North America through Anime Village, which was, if I remember correctly, June or July of 1998 and probably the first article ever posted.
I also remember this site being dormant for weeks if not months circa 2000 and wondering if this site would ever come back to life. |

Well, I made my account in 2008, but I know I was reading for a while before I joined. So, I'm of the 2005-2007 vintage.

Hmm... I've been reading articles on the ANN website for quite a while, but I don't remember just when I started. ^^;
Edit: /me posts Ah... Well the forum says that I've been around since at least Feb 2005. I guess that I haven't paid much attention or thought about it, but that narrows the survey possibilities down. ^^;;;; Last edited by Ingraman on Mon Jun 25, 2012 1:26 pm; edited 1 time in total |

I read a few articles that were linked to ANN in 2001, but didn't start checking it daily, as I still do, until the following year.

I have no idea how long I read the site before I registered so I am glad the longest option is just "before 2005".
