Is this site mostly for teens? I just happen to notice that every one I see is about 13-17...
Just wondering because I notice you said you were an admin. and you're only 17!
Is this a school site or something?

This site was started by the user spacefem. I wasn't around when it started so I'm not sure how long it has been around, a few years because I've been here for over 3. So no, it's not a school site. It was started by a woman who I suppose was really good at giving advice and who gave a chance to others to give advice too. I suppose that it is more directed towards teens because there are a lot of teenagers around who have issues with self confidence and a lot of other things they need help with. Even simple things such as how to fix a mechanical problem or how to raise your gpa...
There are quite a few adults too. A lot of adults seem to come and go more than teens because of simle issues such as chatspeak (tYpInG LyyK3 Dis Nnd ThIIs.). Which is very aggrivating and can turn people away.
I became an admin I guess once I'd been around for about a year, I was pretty good at giving advice, I rated a LOT of questions when become an L1 and I answered like crazy. I participated in site discussions and I guess I was useful. Spacefem is the one who upped my moderator level to admin status. DangerNerd is the current owner of the website, he keeps it running.
I think this site is brilliant. It's a quick, easy way for people to get help from those who have life experiences and who don't know them so they can't judge them, etc.
Most of the site admins are adults. I actually think that myself and Rainbowcherrie are the only minors who are site admin (I could be mistaken though).
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Oh, and by the way - I won't turn 17 until next week =] ]
