It's been a few months since I was last moderately active and I recognize very few people on the forums anymore.

 

My question is for members who've been here for the last 4 or 5 years. With all your old friends leaving, what's keeping you here?

    It's a little depressing too. =P

     

    Feels like that the end of the summer feel when all your friends are gone back home, or back to their usual lives, and things get slow and quiet.

    I am not a super active member but I have been here for a long time. Honestly even though the people who brought me here are gone I still enjoy the company of the people here. Quiet or not we are still a much better community than most program forums.

    Oh hey I'm hitting my 4 year anniversary next month.

    I can't say I come back for the long lasting friendships I've developed here because I've only made one, and we mainly talk off site when given the chance. It's mostly become a routine and a way to spend my time. It's on my bookmark bar so I never forget to visit constantly, and if I'm lucky there's something interesting happening every couple months.

    I do participate in the Neopets events and contribute somewhat to discussions, but since my Neopets activity has been wavering for a couple years now there isn't much I've actually contributed lately.

    Aye, that's pretty much my routine as well. Still a nice place to look at once in a while, chat amongst the friendly and interesting folks. :)

     

    Still a decent group here from ~9 years ago.

     

    Care to name some? I haven't noticed a whole lot.

    Pretty much this, but with 4 years this month. And I don't really talk to anyone offsite. So yeah, it's part of my routine...

    It's part of my routine when I come home from work or when I wake up. I click the middle mouse button on a few bookmarks to create tabs and I read what's been posted. I've made a lot of good friends here and we talk offsite via facebook, texting or TC.

     

    Coming up on my 8th year mark in August..

    But why? Do you enjoy body hair?

     

    I come here everyday because yall crack me up. I wish I played Neopets so I knew what the hell was going on so I could make snide comments in the Neopets threads like old times, but I really have no fucking idea what's happening on Neopets. This is the only forum I frequent, so I have no one else to talk to about Game of Thrones, or Arrested Development. :/
