Why Are We Here?

Why we are all here?
Why do we join an online forum?

For myself its to have fun, solve puzzles, exchange silly banter, intelligent conversation, throw out opinions and ideas into the pot...some serious some not, enjoy having my ideas challenged from time to time, learn new ideas and facts, and have a break from the real world occasionally.

Baby-talk death and GIFs aside, this forum generally meets my needs.
If it gets too gruesome I just unsubscribe from that particular thread.

How about you?

Same for me Ruthio. I have been here for a few years now and it has been a good forum to be on - so far.

Re: Why Are We Here?

I enjoy forums

I love the diversity of the posters, people who I might never choose to meet in real life I come across in forums. I like the differing views and ideas

I do tend to read more then I post

I enjoy the good natured banter on this forum. It's refreshing.

Re: Why Are We Here?

I started using forums when my older sister, who lived nearby, died. Living in a farmhouse means that you don't have neighbours to chat to over the fence, and some friends were still working.

Like many people I find they offer serious conversation, much laughter, interesting games and recipes and I have found a few new friends.

When I broke my wrist, 5 months ago, I was unable to type easily so missed a lot of the entertainment the forum provides.
