    Lies, there are no cool people on reddit, because it is literally the worst place on the Internet.

    Edit: Oh yeah there's a question. I'm mostly active here at Something Awful, though the latter is a bit too big for me to keep track of more than a handful of threads. There's plenty of places I go to look at stuff or get stuff - 4chan, the Paradox forums, the Dorf Fort wiki and forums - but only the two I'm really active at anymore, especially since /v/ was overrun with people born in the 1990s.

    You get out of Reddit what you put into it. I'm pretty active on it, but avoid the mind numbing parts for obvious reasons.

    I keep active there, as well as Twitter. And now, EoFF again.

    God, I missed you guys. I spent so much time here, learned so much. Grew pretty much into who I am today thanks to you all. I love what you helped me be! All the good memories. I'm so happy to see everyone here.

    This pretty much sums up my position as well.

    This place is definitely a different thing than it was for me 10-15 years ago, but it doesn't change the fact that I needed it and it was a huge part of my life at one point. It was also probably a hindrance on me, as instead of going to high school football games or playing basketball, I was eager to get home and log on to EoFF. Probably not the most healthy priorities.

    Blasphemy! Obviously EoFF was the best priority to have. EDIT: In response to Cid.

    EoFF has been the only forum I visit for a few years now, ever since the end of GHF (). I don't have nearly the time or energy to spend on forums like I did 12-13 years ago, when I posted heavily at multiple forums. This and Facebook is really the limit of my e-social life nowadays.

    I don't really go to other forums much anymore. I've tried a bunch, but none of them has grabbed me like EoFF has. Though, nowadays, I've been tweeting and tumbling like a mofo. Oh and a bunch of other things too. Like Drawception!

    I'm also responsible for maintaining #EyesonFF and the Final Fantasy Fan Art Showcase of the Week.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    Agreed on the Reddit thing but the derp is really starting to bleed even into some of my favorite subs. It's into Eternal September mode now.

    Other forums don't have you guys. So not much point.

    Seriously, folks here are what got me through some really bad years. I don't know where I'd be without BOU, Teek, Scottie, Britt, Cid, Unne, Bleys, and others I am probably forgetting. It was damned good luck that I ended up here 14 years ago. There's just something special about this place.

    This.

    As for forums, I go to several other forums, mostly lurking. It's an odd mix of forums though; craft forums, math/statistics forums, saltwater reef tank forums, etc.

    Okay, Bob. Seriously. How many people have married or had children due to EoFF?

    On another note, what terrible things have happened due to EoFF?

    I...am happy to know I left such a positive impression. You kinda just made my day.

    I have really slipped off the radar here at EoFF. I guess it's something to do with my interest shifting from Final Fantasy. I'm likely gonna buy Lightning Returns, but frankly...I'm doing it less because I *WANT* to, and more because the ending of FFXIII-2 left a REAL sour taste in my mouth, and I do hope to get a somewhat positive ending off of it.

    Many thanks Christmas!

    To some, that might be the same question.

    Not to me of course.

    This thread reminds me of being 13-years old and for some inexplicable reason being terribly intimidated by General Chat and instead opting to hide in the Final Fantasy XI forum and Writer's Corner.
