Well, if that's the case, really the most intelligent DB fans are probably in the 22-28 range.
I kid. I kid.

Totally. That's why you're always talking like that, right?
Truthfully, age doesn't matter around here. It's intelligence.

Nope. *hides closet full of Broly merchandise*
But seriously, no. I think 13-14 is where you start to distinguish the real fans from the Broly fans. (No offense people who love Broly)

My little brother, 1996 August 12-
Dragon Ball GT Episode 22- "Violent Ambition!! Birth of the Evil 'Baby'"

That's awesome. XD Epic coincidence right there. I would do my siblings as well, but since they were all born before Dragon Ball started (The person next in line was born March 7th, 1982)... yeah. Kind of boring to post repeat Episode 1, Chapter 1.
I was born on August 1st, 1987. That's right before chapter 134 of the manga and episode 72 or 73 of the anime. The anime's nothing too special (It's the fight against Akkuman in Baba's tournament), but I'm proud of that manga chapter. ^^ It's the end of the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai Saga, the beginning of Piccolo Daimao. Funny that Krillin dies right as I'm born... we were trading places, I guess.

Oh, wow. You're just about reaching that mark someone was asking about earlier! Cool! It's nice to know that there are Dragonball fans older than 26 out there.

That was me!
But yeah, that's great news as I've never met a DBZ fan over thirty.
Well, does Kyle Hebert count?

I'm trying not to count staff and crew as part of the "fanbase." Steve Simmons is an exception, though.

Really? I always imagined everyone here to be in the 19 to 27 range. This thread is really proving my assumptions wrong, though!

I think that this thread was only a crafty and clever plan to find out how old everyone is.

Let's see... According to Wikipedia, I was born two days before the Japanese television premier of Dragon Ball Z episode 184:
#16's Tragedy!! Enlivened Angry Super Gohan/16号無惨!!動き出す怒りの超悟飯. -I'll always remember that now.

I guess you gotta ban me too, I was born in the 2nd most recent year of the Monkey.
10 points for anyone who can tell me what year that was.
