Why do you love visiting TerraEarth?

Post Posted: Post subject: Why do you love visiting TerraEarth?

This topic is open for any answers really. I've just been wondering why people still love visiting TerraEarth. Is it the games we cover? Is it the design of the website? Is it the people on the forums? Or is it all of these? Share your heart with us!

Most of all it's the people. I just find it hard to stay so long on any other forum. I guess a lot of other boards are just static compared to this one. Either that or I'm too lazy to look around :p

What everyone else said, and likely, what everyone else would say. It's the people here, the sense of community, and the fact that, when it comes down to it, when someones in need everyone is willing to help one another.

.Everything said. For me, it's very little about the games, or gaming in general. But I can't leave out the gaming-aspect completely. I still think Emeth's Philosophical Issues in Terranigma is one of the best threads ever, gamewise.

Because I measure my life's worth in my post count and participants in my games and I need that social validation to keep me sane long enough to die before I go on a massive killing spree.

...

I mean, the people, of course. :shifty:

TE: Come for the games, stay for the people. :coolthumb:

When I first found the forums, it was because I recently discovered the games, and thought a site devoted to them was kind of cool. I joined the forums on a whim, mostly out of curiosity.

I never figured I'd stay so long, but it was the people that kept me coming back. :-D

I didn't join for the games in the first place. I just like being on forums :)
I've always been jumping from forum to forum, since there always turned out to be one or more dirt bags making my stay there rather unpleasant. It might be because I am easily agitated (I already had a quarrel with Psychokind :P), but me thinks me has found me an all right bunch of people here :D
