For me it depends. If I'm pretty active it's 1500-2000 a day if I'm just sitting around it's 800 a day
What about you, MMO-Champion Off-Topic?

Are you just eating cup noodles or something?

The problem with the internet is parallel to its greatest achievement: it has given the little man an outlet where he can be heard. Most of the time however, the little man is a little man because he is not worth hearing.
It varies throughout the week.
On workout days I generally eat around 2700-2900 kCal
On rest days it's closer to 2500 kCal
I also tend to have one day per week where I eat a lot more, like 3500 - 4500 kCal.
MMO-Champion's Off-Topic consume daily over 9000 calories, because it feeds on our tears and QQ for that matter.
On topic: Has to be above average or below average. Because I do sometimes eat like a pig, shovling the food and make my family angry. Other times, I just don't eat because I'm not in the mood of it.
PS. I just love chocolate, 'specially after a stressful day.
I'd say over 2000, but I never read the nutrition label on the stuff I put inside me.
Currently i'm on a diet. i eat about 1000-1500 a day, where as for my size and weight (to maintain it) i'd have to eat about 3200 calories a day (5'8 215 pounds) The normal average that you should eat for a person is about 2800-3500 depending on your height mostly. (I'm not 100% sure about it being mostly your height, i just remember that's what my friends dad (a nutritionist) was telling me.

700-1500 a day, i honestly dont see how people can manage more.
Who told you 2800-3500 is average??? Maybe if you are fat...
Recommended maximum daily allowance for men is 2500, but tbh that is too much, it's fine if you do some exercise though or say, have an active job (not sitting at a desk all day etc.).
For women max is 2000.
You shouldn't be going over these numbers on a regular basis without working out, you will just get fat.
Nuts are strange, they are high in calories, but are easily burned.
Anyway, my average is 1500-2000.

700 is way to low, it's not healthy. In case you don't know, a single chocolate bar has around 200-250 calories.

It depends, I have to push myself to eat more at times since I have a pretty fast metabolism. I've been paying much more attention to what I should and should not be eating in recent years, though - I definitely feel healthier for it.
Maybe, but I am 6' 195 and if I do nothing but sit on my ass all day and eat 2800 calories my weight won't budge. I have a physical job, and I do run/lift quite often, so on a weekday if I eat in the neighborhood of 4k calories my weight stays the same.
If i am working 12-14 hour days, on my feet all day (which is my job), I can eat 5k and still not see a difference.
I feel like 2k is way too low.
If you don't mind me asking, how old are you?
Up to my mid twenties, I could eat and drink as much as I want and never put on weight, however as you get older, you have to watch out more and take control.
Plus it sounds like you are fairly active anyway, maybe you would notice a difference if you sat around doing nothing all day for a month eating 2800 calories a day.

Around 1000-1900 a day, depends on the day I guess. I just eat twice a day (breakfast + dinner) but I drink a crapload throughout the day (juice, milk, sourmilk, soups, and water).
Well, for most people it's way too high.
I lift four days every week and try to get a good cardio workout (bicycle) every week as well and I only go over 3000 kCal one day per week, the rest I'm somwhere between 2500 and 2900 kCal depending on if I'm working out that day.
Hmm, I guess about 1000-1400? Not counting coffee which I really should stop drinking so much of.
I am on a permanent low carb diet, i do not calorie count at all. I eat until I am no longer hungry, the system is working so far.

I would never recommend any thing lower than 1600/day. Lower than that, then your hurting your self. You will not be able to provide your body w/ the proper nutrition. If a person is working out then never go under 2000, unless your body wt is under 100lbs.
Caloric intake depends on your body wt, ht, body composition and exercise. When i was 205 lbs working out about 3x w/ wts and cadio, my intake was about 5k per day. Cutting phase was around 3k per day.
