Re: Why did you join a forum?
I am comparatively recent to the internet and the first forums I used to belong to were exercise and bodybuilding sites whereby I would post similar entries to the ones I currently put on here detailing my workouts. I would also give advice and gain further experience myself in fitness-related topics. I was also on music forums talking about all sorts of topics not just music.I found being on those sites also saw me contributing the their own general threads which led me on to this site, mainly because I was fed up of some younger people especially on the bodybuilding sites just acting daft and insulting others.
On here we get some of that (and I've been guilty of it myself occasionally) but on the whole it's good to speak with older people who are generally more disciplined and have some actual conversation and knowledge built into them. They have seen a bit of life, in other words.
I'm happy here and it kills the boredom of my night shifts more than any other reason.

I think each, of after joining, carved a little place for them.
I go through phases, music then photos, then lots of threads. I used to misread posts, now I have learnt, it is not easy sometimes.
Some just like the games sections, some debate.
It is a rich and varied forum, but easy to negotiate.
