What kept you here?

[Ouch!]

We've always got threads about how/why you came to EoFF, but we rarely discuss what kept you coming back. Every day we get a couple new members, and most of them post once and then disappear forever. Some accounts don't even have posts.

What is it that kept you coming back instead of running off absolutely terrified?

For me, it was the writer's corner, I loved the place. By the time it was smushed down, I'd already been here for quite some time, so I wasn't too upset.

Well originally I only joined, posted a few times, and left. But when Mandee took me along to '20 Minutes from Mills Day' and I met some of the other members, I felt comfortable so I started posting, and all that kept me around. I made friends, and that's why I stay.

I have nothing else to do, and I had also just got banned from somewhere else.

chaos: The insanity, the randomness, and those shiny, shiny titles!

Albedo: *Laughs maniacally*

Trowa: But seriously, normally when we were bored we used to come here. Before, I just find this site in an MP3 search, and decided to join the board. I posted quite a bit but got tired of it. Then, started posting again to share my love for Xenosaga and various animes.

chaos: I suppose... Also, we got quite attached to it anyways..

Rubedo: I've made quite some neat friends here, and they seem to cheer me up. I feel like a part of a great community by being here, so I guess that's what kept me here.

Yeppers.

Plus, another forum I had joined was getting very, very dull, and even after being there over a year, I didn't know anyone better than I did when I first joined. But then again, they didn't (don't) have separate places just to chat, or post your problems....

It's just the people, mostly, that keep me coming back. That and being bored out of my mind 90% of the time. And when there's a compiter, I'm gonna use it....

[Rinoabella]

I keep coming back because I love the people here. And this was the first message board I ever joined

[Logan]

I come back because I like the people here, even the weird ones. And I've met some friends here, too. And, EoFF is a lot nicer than any other message board I've been to. Usually.

I honestly dont know...

The people are crazy, the food is bad, there are no rsturants, n equal rights, and the moomba's are treated badly... i guess im one of those people who like bad things...

[DeBlayde]

I started coming here for advice on FF X. Then, once I beat that game, I started looking around at the other areas of the forum, and found myself often frequenting the Eyes On Each Other section.

I won't delude myself by saying my self-effacing gibberish actually helped anybody, but I did enjoy having a place where I could pretend to give counsel to people who seemed to need it.

Then my wife sold my computer for $70. :shame: (sigh) ah well. probably for the best. Now I check here between times when I'm not doing library research or designing studies.

Well, originally, I had joined and looked around and felt a little...overwhelmed by the number of sections and how many members there were here, so I didn't post anything for about three days after I had joined. I had come from FFaddicts' forums in search for a new one, since the quality there was going down, and I was looking for a replacement (because I love forums). After reading some of the stuff here, I started posting...and it is definitely a refreshing difference than the many rules at FFaddicts. Don't get me wrong...I still love that site...but I like this one as well.

So what keeps me coming back? The people here. There's your silly, fun, and random posters and the people who like to get into philosophical debates about life in general.

[Casey]

I dont know why I continue to come here even though I dont even play FF games anymore...

[Yamaneko]

I stay for the deep Final Fantasy discussion.

[-N-]

I come here to sharpen my spamming skills. And check up on some of the familiar personalities around here.

(Can't really say familiar faces, as I haven't really seen them, now have I?)

This is also the only online board I really visit. I really don't use the internet for much, so this actually counts as one of my resources everytime I need to find new information out about things. Individually, you all may be a bunch of stupid loons, but together, you all can be pretty helpful sometimes.

[Giga Guess]

Gen. Chat, and the oddball personalities. Not to name names here...*looks at Seiken/Rubedo/whatever....*

QUIT POSTING AFTER ME ALL THE TIME GAGAGAGAWGA_whjnwrjnaejnwehqwEG *explode*
