MrStoob Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I'd assumed the average age range would be higher, but there we go. I do hope though, however, particularly due to the quote chosen, that the anti-glamour brigade haven't used the survey to air personal gripes about mods they don't even use.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
