Isn't it amazing how many old members there are on this foru

Post » Sat Feb 19, 2011 10:46 am

Whenever I go to other game forums, they're usually flooded with new members. As opposed to this forum, I remember when I joined in 08 they're were plenty of people around that are still around now. What do you think of the way people stick around here?

It's a great forum. Good community, the games it is centered around are good, there's decent moderator work, and it's where much of the modding magic happens. Plus there's this community discussion forum with (usually) some interesting topics.

Why would anyone want to leave? Is it even possible? :bolt:

People stick around because this is a (mostly) mature, well moderated place for people to discuss anything they wish. As long as what they wish does not involve religion or politics.

The two reasons why I'm staying is simply because it's the official forums of two of my favourite game series and for modding purposes. :D

Hey it's a great community, and it's home of my favorite game series. So I have to stay. Not to mention members on here are 10x more mature then other sites

Who you calling old? :stare:

I stay because I know people here. I'd miss all my fellow anime forumites on here if I were to leave (some of the rest of you too, but not Exo :P)

The rules create a great community. They allow sensible conversation without it turning into a flame fest.

Too lazy to find a new forum. I've already invested too much time here as well.

And for every one of them is another that can't accept an opposing view about their favorite video game. Politics is a topic best left locked down.

Define old.

I find that, in short, it's the only forum I know of that doesn't svck. Most I've seen are either dedicated completely to subjects I don't give a damn about, are almost completely dead, or end up like the World of Warcraft forums. Here, there are enough members to keep things going, and most of them are pretty cool as well. The only fault of this forum is that in my opinion the moderators are a bit too strict and especially the rules on religion and politics could use some loosening up. I understand why the rules are in place though, like all corners of the internet this forum too is plagued by people who can't discuss politics or religion in a civil manner and the mods would probably suffer a burnout within weeks with all the extra work they'd get. Still, despite their flaws the moderators here are still the best I've seen (though that does not necessarily mean much :P) and the only one I really don't like has disappeared into thin air some time ago.

In short, I like this place and won't be leaving any time soon. Too much interesting stuff going on here, in between the wasps, strawberries and alien cults.

It's the s'mores, the campfires, and singing "Kum Ba Yah" that keeps folks around.

Yeah, this is a nice and smart community. As long as you evade the Fallout 3 vs New Vegas threads, and Morrowind vs Oblivion threads, and Skyrim being dumbed down threads, and threads about aliens, and threads about supernatural, and... :hehe:

I think I have more friends here then real ones so I enjoy it here, despite the viciously immature Skyrim section ATM :lol:

EDIT: Not that I've been here long by any means.

I don't consider to be old member yet, but these forums are indeed nice place to stay and I don't plan to abandon them any time soon.
