Firstly I am not a teen but I am not a master either
I do not believe it is a bad idea, but I can see where people are coming from.
Having a teen board and a master board would be beneficial in that the masters who left may return to provide even more knowledge. A teen board can be for all the repetitive questions because very few peeps have managed to grasp how to use the search engine.
There is alot of teens here lately asking questions that can be answered by my mother if she had use to the search engine but summer is coming to an end and teens will be back at school having more exciting things to be doing. This is not a slam on the teen because some of them can be rather knowledgable and know when and when not to ask questions.
The problem will be how will the board be monitored? Who will have access and who wont. I believe maybe a stricter approach on the rules and making sure people obide by them.
i'm 16, and there arn't many others my age on this board. We are always asking advice from older people because they simply have more expierence. I know alot for my age but if you had a board for younger people its not go do us any good.
Teen here and I think I am mature for my age (everyone thinks I'm about 20 or something, I look it too ) and I think the board should stay like it is. I have gotten a ton of help from the older people here. If I was talking to 15 or 16 year olds I wouldnt feel right taking their advice because teens always say they have good ways of doing something when they are actually doing it wrong. The older people have alot of exprience and can hugely help me out with any of my problems. I actually hate talking to people my own age, I usually hang out with seniors or college mates because they know what they are talking about and don't act stupid all the time.
