dsavi Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Lately, I've been thinking, specifically about the users that have been here for a long time, that everyone know, or that know everyone. Basically the users that have seen Tip.It or Off Topic change, or go through different times. There are quite a few of you out there, and I don't necessarily mean users with a high post count. But when I thought about it, a browser-based game forum with quite a few younger users (Below 13 or so) doesn't seem to really fit those who have been here for a long time, and they have probably left RS a long time ago or even detest it now. But you're still here in the Off-Topic boards, and don't get me wrong, we're glad you are, but I'm wondering, what is it about Forum.Tip.It that keeps you coming back and posting? It has been quite a few times that the discussions here have gotten kind of out of hand or immature, and I know that it has kind of pissed some of the older users off. But you're still here.

ididnotlol Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Im a no lifer, and I'd rather have a mature conversation with you lot, who are most likely older than me, rather than talk to a dimwit my age who only thinks of boobies. I love this sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC_Kejml Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Interesting topics in Offtopic, also the ability to talk with people my age about common problems without fear of flame war or "HUR HUR YOU ARE/DO/HAVE ... xyz!!!2!". Mostly. ^ my book :^_^: I don't play anymore, but I'm grateful I played through the best RS times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Observer Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I just like discussing stuff with the forum. I can't exactly have mature discussions with most of my friends, because either they make an extremely crude joke about it, or are too busy staring at the girl's butt across the room.

warren211 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I'm a teen and have only been here since late 2006 I think it was. So almost 2 years. Not a veteran yet, but definitely have seen a lot on tif in my time. Quit members a while ago, play on f2p on the weekends when I'm bored, and my favorite forum is OT. Why? as ididnotlol said, it's easier to have a mature discussion. I can't tell you how much I've learned about global events since coming here. It's an awesome place to be. [hide=]tip it would pay me $500.00 to keep my clothes ON :( :lol:But then again, you fail to realize that 101% of the people in this universe hate you. Yes, humankind's hatred against you goes beyond mathematical possibilities.That tears it. I'm starting an animal rebellion using my mind powers. Those PETA bastards will never see it coming until the porcupines are half way up their asses.[/hide]Apparently a lot of people say it. I own. http://linkagg.com/ Not my site, but a simple, budding site that links often unheard-of websites that are amazing for usefulness and fun.

warri0r45 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 It's not perfect here, but I wouldn't really expect it to be. Sometimes there's a drop in good posts or topics, but every now and then there might be something interesting to post in. I suppose the real reason I keep coming back is the people, though. There are some pretty decent people here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megakiller32 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Sometimes there are some great topics. You get the contrast between the funny topics, and the serious debatable topics. I like to see other people's opinions but what I love most about forums, is that you don't need to shout or over talk each other, you state your argument in a post, and it continues at your own paces. :D But I really hate runescape now, and i'm glad there are others here who have gone through the same phase of playing it to detesting it now :D Quit Runescape 30th May 2006.Thanks to Hawkxs for my signature :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orpheus Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Mainly the people here, and the occasional topic to get my thoughts out.
