How invested are you in a forum?

So I've only been legitimately active here since mid-January. Before that I had some posts here and there but I'm pretty sure it was about like 20-30 posts. Too lazy to check.

Despite this I have over 1500 posts, this is a complete contrast to another forum I currently frequent a lot. I've been a user there since 2011 but only have 1400 posts and I think only two threads in total made.

For me, I can't bring myself to be very active with the community there. I mean, it's not that I don't want to be, otherwise I wouldn't be there in the first place but I think the users here are a lot better than the ones over there. There's not a single one of you who I actually don't like (some of you I'm not talking to [they know who they are] right now but I don't actually hate them). Over there it's filled with people who are pretty self-absorbed and chauvinistic, taking any differing opinion as being a contrarian or ignorant (or both).

Back on B.net I was active up until this year and was Fabled, so a post count well over 20k. I really enjoyed the community up until the last two years and everyone who I truly missed is here now which is my reason for wanting this place to be my new internet home. But I wonder about everyone else, how attached are you to an internet forum or a internet community in general?

Here, too much. Trying to tone it down a bit.

I don't post anywhere else, but I had an unhealthy obsession with Bungieposting as well.

There's nothing wrong with finding a "home" on the Internet, but it's important not to take it too far.

If this place disappeared I'd probably go back to having 4chan open on the side while doing nothing. I wouldn't be totally destroyed by it, but it would hurt a bit since after B.net went to the dogs I felt "homeless" on the internet for almost two years. I spent a hefty amount of time on the FFXIV Subreddit, but Jesus is that a pestering shit hole.

Also, despite the fact that I honestly only came back because one user in particular was on here frequently during the time frame, I'm glad they brought me back because it helped me keep some genuine possible friendships, since I'm not good at starting them IRL.

The only forum I ever truly considered myself "active" on was Bungie.old, and ever since things went to shit I've never really had any sort of fallback or place to be myself. /tg/ is the closest I think I've come to getting some of the magic back, but I've been quickly losing interest there s well.

TAC (which you are aware of) is one of the last bastions of community left to me, and even there I've slowly lost a desire to remain.

The Anime Community. The IRC is still going, but posting remains infrequent to this day.

Sorry, but I completely lost interest in TAC when they outed me because I didn't want it to be /a/ 2.0.

They all hid in the IRC and didn't bother posting but criticized me when I was too busy finishing high school to post in the forums.

I was only ever able to make two friends out of that group Nox and Bryan who I still talk to to this day and Nox is probably one (keyword there, ONE) of the closest internet buddies I have. And even he didn't care too much about TAC.

Depends on a few things, like if I find the users to have interesting personalities, if I manage to hold enjoyable conversations with people on the forums, how much I'm socializing in real life, and how I'm personally feeling.

I've been frequenting this place/the internet less and less as summer draws near. Sep7 needs some more distinct memberships this year... we should be focusing on coordinating community events on the weekends as well.

I'm pretty invested in shitposting on /tv/.

I had a dream last night where CIA was my brother and we were being chased by a giant coyote. When I woke up, I realized just how out of hand my baneposting had gotten.

hey
On Bungle, I'm super active, and I'm super invested being the admin and all haha

But on here, I've definitely dropped in activity lately, I had been posting a lot in the past few months, but I dunno, I don't feel nearly as invested on here. Couldn't entirely tell you why.

I just don't understand how y'all nigs can get 1500 posts that fast on a forum that's crawls at the speed this one does nowadays. I would just feel like I was spamming idk. .

It's kind of spamming, but it's pretty easy when you have others doing it as well.

Bungle is pretty neat, so I have about a thousand posts there, maybe. This place I'm trying to get a grip onto: I need to adapt.

Mainly active on b.net (got banned for calling someone a desticle)

I've joined Septagon before the nukings then lost my profile after that. Now I made a new profile though.

I still stick at b.net more because I'm used to it but this place is a lot more chill.
