So, some here respond to questions posed within threads as if they're "closed ended", others seem to share a little more. I'm wondering "what's your motivation?".

I'll start, "Hi, I'm Frank" (no, my name is not "Frank"). I am very open in my posts and share damn near TMI (ok, I probably have shared TMI... maybe twice). Why? I'm very vocal in person. I don't need to hide behind a shroud ("pay no attention to that man behind the curtain"). I'm right there in front of "you", take it, or leave it. I'm not out to puff smoke up someone's butt, or pretend that I'm something I'm not because "you" will be more comfortable with it. I'm like this face to face, so why be any different on the Interwebs? So why EOFF (former FFL alum)? In my humble opinion, RPG gamers (more so than any congregation), can extrapolate from my experiences, where the general public would just take it at face value (if they could even discern that). An appreciation for FF (in particular) is a very exclusive trait.

How about "you"?
