It's a very simple I want you all to answer fully and in length. I want you to give a good long thought. Where are you here? Why are you here? Opposed to reddit, Facebook, 4chan, some other larger forum or one of the uncountable small ones? Why here of all places? Spoiler: My personal answer The reason I'm here is simple. I feel a sense of worth here. Unlike 4chan, reddit or Facebook, here I have a consistent, anonymous ego that I can use in a community that is large enough to actually respond, and not large enough that I feel totally insignificant. Like @Westeller said to me once, the site is still growing, with more and more new members joining the community. But even then, the community is still small enough that I can recognize a good portion of the frequent posters, and that the mods actually are people to us, not some unknown force of unjust-justice that flamboyantly wields a ban hammer, they're people. Hell even people with generic names such as @Satan are active, if that's any indicator of activity. If the fact that I have over 3400 posts as of the making of this thread, which places me into the notable members list, serves as any proof, it shows how I actually post here. A lot. Another smaller reason would be because I'm bored. But that pretty much only drives me to come here everyday at the very least, as opposed to how often I'm actually here. Well, if you read that, congrats! Now tell me, in all seriousness, why are you here?
I tried reddit Barely got 3 replies However here, people have a common interest we can share and discuss
Here for the novels and spoiler initially . Stayed and became active cause of the warm welcome here. I actually didn't expect to frequent here till I found people of the same hobbies. Its kinda hard for a girl to tell the usual people that her favourite novels have dao protectors and cultivation they prolly won't get it anyways. Well long story short I found people with common interest.
the answer is im also on all the ms sites reddit 4chan discord tumblr twitter youtube... newgrounds i waste time on all those sites and whatever other sites tickle my fancy
I'm a guy and still don't have people to talk about this stuff irl with, so I see where you are getting at. It's impossible to have a good conversation if you have to put in a huge amounts of explanations in.
Q. Why am i here? Ans. When i was in 6th gradei got into reading horror novels like goosebumps.... Then i stepped onto the road of fantasy novels...i read Artemis Fowl, Percy Jackson, heroes of Olympus, Hardy boys,.... But i didn't like reading novels with to much politics or those who put strain on my brain...i read novel as a way to relax... But then i read mga... It was good then i read atg! Now i have about 50 novels i follow daily.... I love these fantasy novels so much that even my parents say that you don't do anything except sleeping eating bathing studying and reading novels!! Get a life... So I'm here!!! Maybe i will leave and get a life....
i joined NU to keep track of the novels I was reading, because at some point I noticed it seemed nicer compared to checking 20 sites several times a day. and I agree that it's a nice anonymous place to post or talk about things I wouldn't post on Facebook or other sns because I don't know enough people with the same interests and I like keeping a facade of dignity in RL xD also, I like reading and sharing one's fandom with others is always nice.
The truth is... I am not here, I am no more than a fantasy created by your crazy and unstable mind. '-'Being serious now! I am extremely ashamed to say that I am to timid to talk with people in RL, much less talk about my own hobbies and likes and dislikes, it is just too hard t-t. I just love people from NUF, they treat my well and they are funny, they are the best <3 I never thought that I would be staying here for so long, but I can see myself leaving this place, I need to enter NUF many times during the day, even if just to look at another people post Haha
I tried to explain once and ever since then never tried again. It's just too hard,whatever enthusiasm that I had to share about the novel died after that long explanation which my friend didn't get. Well I see that our reasons are the same, that's good to know that i am not the only one XD
