Joe,
I've already PM'd you and the others and suggested that if you want to chatter amongst yourselves you should start you own 'Tea' style thread.
It's pretty straight forward, and will act as a container for your friend-to-friend chatter.
I don't think anyone is particularly bothered by any of your ages - I'm sure many people here actually welcome your youthful exuberence, and I wouldn't want any of you feeling like you're being put in a corner because of your age, that's not how CC should work.
However, by jumping into other peoples threads and posting 'chattery', 'buddy' type posts at each other for page after page, you're doing the equivelant of turning up at a party and talking all over everyone else - whether you realise it or not!
I'm not saying you should carefully consider and perfectly craft every one of your posts, and I would be the last to comment on anyone else's grammar, just that when you want to natter with your mates it may be best to keep it to your own thread/s.
Can you imagine if the Tea thread suddenly started being tagged onto every other thread in the cafe - it'd be a nightmare and people would soon get fed up with it. Same goes for you Young 'Un's.
Equally I don't want to discourage any of your passing on advice to others - you should definitely feel like you can get involved in any thread on CC - but after you've given your advice, don't spend 10 pages discussing your post, just sit back and wait until there's something further you can add to the thread.
In other words, you don't
need to post at the rate of a machine gun, and if you post on other people's threads just show a bit of etiquette. That's all.
Cheers,
Shaun
