It means we're surprised that kids these days come to Maidenfans. Also, plebs means plebian, and is a joking term for "regular users" or "people who don't come to the chat".

Though you're welcome

Is that really it? I'm a little bit suspicious. If that's the case, then it's cool I guess.

What exactly does this mean?

Well, let's see...
I don't actually use Facebook, and don't have accounts on Reddit or Twitter.
I don't even remember how I found this site.
Anyway, it's nice to have a smaller chat group.

Yeah, I thought that Facebook was a thing for the older generations by now.

I just realised you've been on this forum for longer than I've been alive.

I was dreading the day this would happen.

It was in the context of a broader discussion on people finding the forum, and a bit of a surprise that the youth of today have managed it.

He has a problem with his age.

I think it was when I was looking up Maiden album reviews, having only heard a few of their songs, but I don't quite recall.

 

[Midnight]

Well, he is "Tumblr old"...

 

[Midnight]

people who don't come to the chat

Well, I'm in India. It's 11 PM for me right now.

 

[The Flash]

What?

It means he's getting old, so.

I think you are correct on that thought. Active users of Facebook are an older demographic nowadays. By active user I don't mean people who have an account and check it every once in a while, I mean people who join pages, frequent groups, post comments, share pictures and all.

Do kids use Facebook? I thought that was the preserve of middle aged people and exhibitionist parents who want to share every moment of their child's life.

We said so in the chat, too. As I said, everything was taken out of context.

Facebook was really popular among the youth 10ish years ago but it kinda fell off when social media started expanding.

 

[The Flash]

Facebook as a website fell off among the youth in terms of popularity, but Facebook as a company hasn't. It was a wise investment on their part to purchase Instagram, that's one of the places the youth flocked to.

Or the 'youth' are ten years older and therefore no longer 'youth'?

Well, I made an Instagram account less than three months ago because I discovered that people outside of Estonia barely use Facebook. It's 90% unnecessary shite anyway, but useful to keep some contacts.
