Title: Why do you stick around?
BigK - December 12, 2007 10:22 PM (GMT)
Why do you stick around here? Friends? For MGS? For debating? For drama? Or for shits and giggles?
I stick around for shits and giggles basically. Because I like sharing stories and posting them here, namely Second Skin or Ground Zero, or CTTA, or the org interactive stories I'll be making. That and the MGSF Plus comic, which I'll be updating sooner or later, preferably later. :lol:
I like amusing people with humor through the comics, or the intensity within the stories.
I'm 29, I'm kinda a bit older than most members, I don't make friends with people over the internet, especially when most people here are like 10 to 15 years younger than me. If I did make friends for that, I'd be in jail by now, wouldn't ya think? :ph43r:
So how about you guys? Why do you stick around?

Not sure this has been my first forum and I enjoy reading some of the stuff the forum churns out. I usually stay away from arguments though :unsure:
And also the fact that it houses some of the world's most fanatical fans of MGS.

Mostly for friends and the shits and giggles...
Like the YOU are not YOU thread, all in good fun...
I'm not real serious when I'm on this site, because I come here not to debate or cause drama, but to relax myself...

Good, that's exactly how you should see it kiddo. Make sure you keep it that way. :D

MGS, I tried other sites, but they were shit.
Also shits and giggles.
SolidSnake52 - December 12, 2007 10:38 PM (GMT)
For shits and giggles like everyone else.
JCC - December 12, 2007 10:46 PM (GMT)
Friends, and the fecal chuckles combination.
sadistic_greyfox - December 13, 2007 12:14 AM (GMT)
Because I have nowhere else to go.

To tell you the truth, I only come here because its a bad habit. I really think I've overstayed myself and don't belong here anymore... (Hence why I tend to lurk around and not post too much.) People have lost all respect for me; I don't think I'm really all that welcome here.
Another reason is because the quality of this place has dropped to a low. Everything just feels rotted out and melodramatic. I remeber people/staffites being more carefree, and lax.
Sorry to make this depressing post, but it's how I feel. :(

Its interesting to talk to people and get to know people from around the world. And i also like the good debating on the forum and how almost everyone knows just as much or more about metal gear than i do.
black king - December 13, 2007 12:43 AM (GMT)
for friends and laughs both :lol: I also don't get out much so i come here for a social life :P
Blue Phoenix - December 13, 2007 01:01 AM (GMT)
i enjoy talking to people who are as passionate about metal gear as i am, iv never met n e one else in person who has that same deep interest as i do (with the exeption of my best friend). which is y i come here to talk to you guys, and y this is my home page. iv not been a member long but have enjoyed my time posting on the forums. and not just the MGS aspect of things, all the other types of threads aswell:) its a great place to discuss all kinds of things. so i guess thats y im here lol :thumb:
the_cobbinator - December 13, 2007 01:15 AM (GMT)
Because I'm power-hungry and relish making others feel worthless.
Really, though, I stay because I like Metal Gear Solid, I like the members here, and I enjoy admining.
krypton_ls - December 13, 2007 01:16 AM (GMT)
This was the first proper forum that I joined...... some of the members that have been around here for as long as I have will recall how I got here. Given that Solidus is away, I can't let him share the story..... another day! ^_^
And why am I still here? Hmm, moderating this fine place I guess!
Snake Liquid - December 13, 2007 01:18 AM (GMT)
I stay here specifically for you BigK. It's my whole reason for being here :P
In all seriousness, I originally stayed to learn more about MGS, but now I don't think there is much more for me to learn, other than MGS4. I basically stick around for the guys in TSF and just because there are many other people that I like on the forum.

I'm sticking around just to see how long I can keep doing it.
FoxHound8688 - December 15, 2007 02:04 PM (GMT)
I come on here everyday. Partly because I feel like its Home to be around people that have the same interest as me and we all are fans of Metal Gear solid. There is alot you can learn from people in the world and this is one of the places that it can happen. I love reading other peoples views such as how they play the games Killing or no Killing. I reckon it will get even better with the release of MGS4
King Snake - December 15, 2007 02:29 PM (GMT)
I am here for Shits and giggles, and friends. I like to be here cause you people have the same interests like me.
Shyne-Bryght - December 15, 2007 02:53 PM (GMT)
I stick around for the people I have come to know on here, also for the organisation I am part of, and I also feel a sense of loyalty to this forum.
snake_ultsol - December 15, 2007 03:08 PM (GMT)
There's an interesting bunch of people on this forum who I like to chat with and share my opinions. And of course, I'm also here for the shits and giggles. :lol:
Yackemflaber - December 15, 2007 03:35 PM (GMT)
why do I stick around?
Good question, I don't know if I can even answer that.
I don't check out the MGS forums which is like the whole reason for this forum-site, and I wouldn't say I have any friends that I've made on here (although one time I almost did)
so I dunno, it's probably just because I love conversation and this is another way to talk to people about stuff
ichbinscissors61 - December 16, 2007 09:51 AM (GMT)
I stick around here for the MGS, I love to get challenges from people, although this doesn't happen often and I enjoy talking about my favourite games on here.
Yes though, I have made a lot of friends on this forum, and I like that side of it as well.
It's my first forum, the one I visit the most, and a lot of people on here are great to talk to.
It's always great fun on here, only criticism is not enough people talk about MGS very much.
*looks at Yack* :lol:
But seriously, a great place to come, I can see myself being here for quite a while.
Liquidus_Snake - December 16, 2007 11:46 AM (GMT)
in desire to be the first to make 1'000'000'000 posts!!!!!!!!! :elaugh2:
nah just messing, in all serialness, because of boredom lol
Register - December 16, 2007 11:53 AM (GMT)
Shits and giggles as well as the drama.
micster - December 16, 2007 12:03 PM (GMT)
I like the people; I love DC; It makes me feel good being in this position
q8snake - December 16, 2007 03:05 PM (GMT)
to tell you the truth this is the first time I knew about forums and stuff. I really loved Metal Gear and I decided I would stick around and stuff, I just want to meet guys on the net from different places around the world and I like to share my opinions with you, and makes me become a worldwide thinker and its basically for everything and I don't regret staying here :lol:
jc55 - December 18, 2007 07:40 PM (GMT)
In one sentence, because MGS is the don and I like talking about it.
kkarbo - December 18, 2007 07:47 PM (GMT)
I stick around because I can. I don't like drama, and I'm not too bothered about making friends (although if I do, all the better) and I don't madly post about Metal Gear Solid. Also, it's nice to talk to other people once in a while.
I guess I would fall in the shitting and giggling bit.
Metalmalitia23 - December 19, 2007 06:40 PM (GMT)
Im mostly on here because my Advertisiing and Design class is 2 and a half fucking hours long and we sit at a computer the entire time and do whatver the hell we want. Plus its cool to talk about MGS with people that like and understand the game as much as you do. I mean dont get me wrong im no fan-boy. I had MGS3 for two days before i actually played it becuase i was out with my firends doing stuff with my life. Well...kinda.
And all of the Other-talk forums are amusing and I get a pretty good laugh out of some of the stuff people say and just....internet/forum humor i guess.
Ask for friends on forums? When you go on sites that has everything you love and 5000 other people are on the same site your bound to find someone that you just like more than others and if they weren't in another contry you would love to chill with or get wasted or whatever ( And yes i am making a reference to you Blue Phoenix you remind me so much of one of my best bros who looks just like you and shares the same name.)
So yeah anyways, Rock amd fucking roll MGSF! B)
Gene - December 19, 2007 07:39 PM (GMT)
Shits an giggles... thas about it really exept for the friends ive made too.
FearHeldDear - December 19, 2007 08:32 PM (GMT)
Mostly Prov and JCC, I guess. Mr. Payback's cool too. I miss having Luca Brasi around.
The Black Devil Of Outer Heaven - December 19, 2007 08:35 PM (GMT)
Oh yeah, friends and stuff that are here. The debates, and the talk I find stimulating.
And "shits and giggles", so you would say.
