This question is more or less directed to the members who were deleted once or twice before they re-registered and then started posting.. but members are free to chime in as well...

What made you stick around here? :)

Well skinned forum,and the fact that the staff here helpful and don't abuse their power,and the members (cept coolman,but he's banned.) are friendly and know a lot about the stuff I like.

Staff included in the members part.

this forum site is very well orginized and has a whole lot of stuff that im interested in plus the members here are all cool (sept coolman) and they have mad pies :)

Because of all of the cool people here and the help I get with my computer needs. I can also post my work here and be able to get contructive critisism and tips on how to improve. Also I can post stuff here and not have the fear of people saying "lOl d47 $uX0r$ n00b!"

And don't get badasses going "YOUR STUFF SUCKS! YOUR RIPPING OFF <Insert Comic Name Here> and crap like that." That's one of the reasons why I am here.

to tell the truth i had made an account here before but i was so busy doing other stuff i just let my old account die out :'(

here we delete inactive accounts like every 3 months.. so it is possible that you have been deleted before..

i know frost_hedgehog, sklersilver, DT and a few others used to be lurkers here.. the funny thing is some of the most active posters here used to be lurkers themselves..

I disappeared for a month earlier in the year,then I came back and I became EMMENSELY active.

Isn't that right BA?

yep...

there was a time back when this place was being ressurected, we used to tease a.j. because he had racked up like 500 posts in a week..

i mean he was the number one poster for a long time.. but now fish is the top poster..

it'll take me a while, but i'll evenutally get to 5,000 posts..

I'm usually at the top of the daily top 10 Posters you know.

yea :-[ , up until VZ emailed about me being on fourms all the time and not posting a thing, so that how I started posting.

And he is getting warmed up.

Yea.

I think i joined... got about 50 posts and then i was off and now i've almost got 3000... (Dam that holiday stopped me from beating fish :-[ )

The whole forum has interesting topics...and i love foruns that have a good variety of topics...that's why i sometimes stay here a very long time...

I'm with him

you know, in the beginning, i used to be a lurker here.. i never posted.. i think i didnt start posting until december..

that is why i didn't start my intro topic until 2005 instead of 2004 when i first signed up.. i was really shy at first..

but yeah i didn't get active here until.. late-december of 2005.. :)

The main thing is how awesome, funny, serious and all the great things that these members are...

hehe some of the older member wound rember ne leaveing for a long time not only once but twice

That must of been a long time ago... i never remember you leaving

We weren't here then.

the first time he left i thought it was because people kept getting on him about his spelling.

:whistle: It's not that bad

But his much better now...i know it, because sometimes i didn''t understood some of his posts...

Yeah... sometimes it takes a few seconds and sometimes a while to read it... anyway we shouldn't talk like this... we may upset fish... And that's something i don't wanna do!

his spelling isn't bad now.. but you weren't here in 2004.. his spelling wasn't that bad back then either.. but a LOT of people got on him, and over reacted about his spelling as if he typed like this..

sdfsdnfh]s;dlhf's;ldjf';dljf;dsljf'sc;jdf;'v

it was ridiculous..

Well,at least he trys to make it as legible as he can.

Yeah, he has improved a lot...and so as i...

Ditto

I guess... That once you get stuck in its hard to get out... I would leave for like 1 month but wouldn't say that i'm quitting... maye for when my SATs come up i'll have to do that :(

i liked how every body had their own character, and featured in flash movies.

And the fact you guys give constructive criticism.

That too...

Admins that don't abuse their power.
The fact we don't tolerate ridiculing others here.
That you can speak your mind without being told "STFU n00b, we don't want your opinion. " or something to that extent.
Everyone has a different background and different opinions so it's interesting to see what others say.

Everyones mind works differently... people imagine different things... Some people are inventers others and workers while others are scientists... The ones that come up with the ideas, the ones that do them, the ones that ponder on them...

I bet this site has them all cause there is no way this could be such a good site with out it... VZ and BA are both thinkers and workers... We have inventers who give out ideas... Ba, BDX and VZ think on it... work out how to do it... then produce the thing... It's a basic production. I know it kinda sounds weird but I did kinda make it up on the spot :ashamed:

And we come from different parts of the world,so technically,we're proof that different cultures can get along,but have disagreements and not try to kill each other.

You got that right...it's always interesting to know new things from other people...that's how you can grew up...

Yeah working as a team rocks... Working indepently is ok sometimes but when theres some nice people who it's possible to work with it sucks... Without working as a team the world wouldn't be where it is today... we wouldn't be here today... We've shown that and that's pretty cool also
