I'm 23 years old as well.
Things could be better (but aren't bad) there has been quite a bit of issues with control over the site semi-recently. More recently, Dada gotten possession of the forums after obtaining it from Drule, mostly to the relief of many members unhappy with the direction Drule was taking it.
Dada plans on moving us to a new forum software so he can bring back a lot of the original functionality of the forum.
As DDay says, we've recently had a lot of random old members pop back up recently.
