Employed at AG's HQ. It's not an age, it's a paid job that you have to probably have experience for, and education for... So probably post-college/university age.
Also, those stickies.

ok sorry if that would kind of count as spamming i wasnt doing that to try to get more armor points because for one i would get the same by just continuing with the ones that i already posted as you said and two i am not dying to get a lot of armor points right now because i know that they will be reset when the new armor games comes out thank you

You are an employee of the AG company and probably have a degree of some sort.

So, 21 maybe?

I think, around 21. If that helps any.

No one knows for sure, nor has anyone explained. So here's my guess..

I'd say at least 21 years of age with some sort of experience in game developing/programming (most likely a degree of some sort).

Most admins on this site are simply experienced game developers (Krin, ConArtists, John, Tony etc.)

I know of one person whom hasn't uploaded a single game, meaning they have little to no experience in game developing. But they became a moderator first, showed interest in being an admin, and apparently had the correct credentials. But that's a long shot for anyone, I'd say.

@Ryan

No, there hasn't been a mod who became an employee and hence admin....The only person I know who was an admin but has little programming knowledge was Carlie and that was because we needed a Community Manager.

Just think of it as a proper job. And like most other jobs you need a good degree and be old enough such that they wont be charged with child labour....

If you guys are really interested and actually think they can full the role, I think AG is still hiring, somewhere on their about page.

That's basically exactly what I just said put into different words.

Many of the employees here are inactive or hiding themselves from AG.

Hiding. They're inactive on the Forums, but that doesn't mean they ignore AG....after all it's their job....

I'll rephrase my words, so it is more clear.

The employees here (like John) are active, but we don't even know it.
