How long will you stay?

[GypsyElder]

How long do you think you'll stay here at TFF? like up until what age do you think?

As long as the site doesn't go down and a good amount of the people I talk to are still around I'll probably stay for a good amount of time lol (as long as I have internetz)

I'll probably be a super lurker in the future.

[che]

I will lurk forever!

I've met some amazingly awesome people here on TFF. Other than them, it's just another internet website. I don't give a shit about them, I will forget them, and I will never know them personally (thanks to Someone).

Peace and love, mon!

[DragonHeart]

Well I can certainly say I never expected to be here for near a decade now, lol. That makes me sound really old. >_> But I like it here and I've met lots of really cool people by being here, so I don't see any real reason to leave at this point. As long as Fuzz is willing to put up with us, I can see myself sticking around pretty much indefinitely. I've always been something of a semi-lurker anyways.

I've been here over two years already, did sort of disappear for awhile, I don't know why I stopped visting but, I've been back for a little again now, as for how long I'm going to be here for?... Nooooo idea, I hope for awhile tho, there are some really nice people here.

[Halie]

I've been here for four years, and I didn't expect it to be that long. I thought after a few months I'd get bored of it but the site just keeps pulling me back in .

I think it's because of the nice people that are here. Most of the people I've made friends with have left now, or are extreme lurkers, so I've resorted to lurking myself. But nevertheless, the people still here are really nice, and if I wasn't so busy I'd probably make the effort to talk to more of them. >.>;

I'll probably stay here for a while I think... if I can stay here for four years, then surely I can squeeze out a few more? Afterall, some members have been here for over a decade.

So yeah... I joined when I was eleven years old I think, maybe I'll stick around until I'm 20? Who knows...

[Xanatos]

I've been here for over a year now, which is my personal record on forums in general. I don't know but I usually get tired of forums really quick, but not of this one it seems, it's probably due great people I meet here, great atmosphere and always having something interesting to discuss about, I don't know for sure how long am I going to stay here, but I'll try to stay as long as I can.

[Aerif]

I'll keep coming so long as the roleplay forum TFF is still in my bookmarks.

I'm not saying that there's always an interesting topic to discuss or a peak amount of activity, but that's what being a lurker's all about. Stick around whether or not there's actually anything happening and...

Spoiler: moaning about it, when nothing is happening

Today I decided to play with BB code.

[Taco-Calamitous]

I don't really think I expected to be checking TFF still in 2010. There have been several periods where I "left."

I dunno. Forums in general seem to be something of an addiction for me. Even if it wasn't TFF, I'd be looking at some forum. Maybe not posting, but I'd be looking (lurking.) Something interests me, and I'm like, "What are people saying about THIS?!" And then I find out what they're saying, and I want to punch them, frequently. TFF is the one I've invested the most time in, however, and the one that people are the most friendly to me on. There is a lesser amount of people on here that I want to punch. Anyhoo...

Wuv, Yer Mom

[Xithor]

It was four years ago that I found TFF and after quite a long absent from posting I've become much most active as far as posting around. I've always enjoyed posting in forums, meeting people, expressing opinions, and role-playing. I like the people here at the forums a lot more than some of the people I've met at other forums so I don't see myself ever officially leaving and not coming back. I'll definitely be a lurker at the very least, I have been for the past 4 years and I don't plan to change that unless the site isn't here or I get forced out haha. But hopefully neither of that happens.

[Unknown Entity]

I've been here over two years now, and I can't see myself leaving any time soon. I can't seem to leave longer than a day. I've tried leaving once or twice, but I'm always back a week later. ^^;

Usually, I up and leave other forums quickly, but I've always liked this community. There's something about the people here that make this place more enjoyable, and usually there's always something going on; the giggles in threads, the discussions, the drama, the private jokes you have with other members, and of course my wonderful friends I've made here. xD

Also, I really like Final Fantasy. ^^

[Dodie16]

Well, I haven't even been here a year yet, but that's mark is coming up pretty soon. As for how long I plan to say, I don't really have a definite answer for you. I suppose I'll stay as long as I have access to the place.

The other forum I was on, I stayed for about a month before deciding to move on. That place was really restrictive about what could be talked about, so that's the main reason I decided to leave. I joined this one, because I am a big fan of Final Fantasy, but there's also the option to discuss other things as well. The community is better too, both the feeling and people that are a part of it.

I lurk two other forums now, mostly for the same reasons that Telegraph does, though I've never had the urge to punch anyone. I just have that natural curiosity to find out what people have to say about a certain topic.

I don't know if I'll become a "lurker" here one of these days. I suppose at some point that may happen, but for now, I hope to keep making topics and posting to help promote activity on the forum.

[Jin]

This topic is depressing. Nearly six years later I'm still bored stupid and lolly-gagging around on the same forum in the hopes of remedying the situation? Sad.

It almost makes me want to do something with my life. But then no one would be around to press F5, so that's out.

[Ashura]

Even though I recently joined TTF, I've already met some amazing people. So I would probably stay here for many decades to come, or if the site were to go down while I'm here. It's also suprising how so many people have been here for so long, which is what I like. So I plan to stay here for just as long as they have.

[Azuteor]

I'll still be here as long as the website doesn't shut down. I like this forum because it was my first internet hangout when I had AOL and my parents put me under Parental Control. Even though I was a total n00b, there were several members who were kind enough to show me the ropes. My childhood friends [Kaitou & Kuragari] became a part of TFF, which made this forum really enjoyable, but they don't come here anymore. I have made a lot of memories here!

I love how everyone is laid-back and down-to-earth. Many of them are not afraid to call out on your crap as well cause a little trouble around the forum. I think everyone here knows one another on a personal level.

[Rocky]

I'd like to stay around as long as I am welcome. I'll be around until I get driven out by all the halfwits, so maybe in another two weeks or so?

[BigWill]

I'm somewhat of a master lurker. I'll lurk around for a while and not post anything. Then I'll post around a bit for a while. Then just as quickly back to lurking I go. But I rarely last longer then a year on a forum. Usually I burn a lot of bridges and just leave.....

[Clint]

I wore out my welcome about nine months back when my twisted sense of humor got me banned, and I was publicly ripped apart by the admins in a harassment thread still posted in forum announcements. With that being said, I don't think I can take much more of a place where people take themselves so seriously. As Van Wilder once said, you shouldn't take life to seriously. You'll never get out alive. That quote is especially true in regards to a forum based around a video game series.

My activity has been down quite a bit as of late. I reckon I won't be on this forum much longer, which is pretty disappointing, because that means I got my ban lifted for nothing. However, if people make more interesting topics like this, where I can just rant and complain, I may reconsider. There is nothing in the world I like more then being annoying.

[Sinister]

Pretty much what Jin said...

I hate to say it, but...And I really haven't even been on here nearly as long as some of you...I didn't really think I'd still be here in 2010.

But I like it here and, dammit...you all need me! I have a responsibility to continue to provide this place with my personality and force my opinions on you. That way when I become famous you can all say: "I knew that guy on the interwebz, he was an ass."

-Sin

[Tifa]

Well I can certainly say I never expected to be here for near a decade now, lol. That makes me sound really old. >_>

Dude, ****in' tell me about it. :|

I'm barely around but I like to pop in every so often and see whats up. Had good memories way back when... I don't know any of you new ****ers though.

[Violet]

As long as the majority of TFF's members remain sensible and friendly, then I can totally see myself staying here. If the entire community was taken over by dimwitted assholes, I wouldn't waste any time here.

ATM, I'm just a lurker for the most part and trying to mod what I can. I've been busy as of late, so I haven't been doing much of anything around the boards. So don't worry, I am here in spirit .

[loner-kid]

i'll probably stick around for a while yet, along with my negligable activity. Sure i don't really talk very often but the community is good and there are some fun discussions to see here. Also i like the people who RP here, I dunno, they just rule, screw low activity

[vann 122]

Till i get bored of it(never hahahahahaha)

[Copperfire]

I'm not sure. I've been known to stay at forums for several years, then as my interest fades I just stop going.

[Furore]

At the very least I figure I'll pop in from time to time, at most I'll be here very regularly. Quite possibly until this place shuts down actually.
It's some of the members that draw me and even when most of my fave people go inactive, another bunch of great people pop up. There'll be no competing for top spots as they're occupied by the people who dragged me into this web a few years ago, but either way this place gets many of the better sorts I've met online.

[Lily]

Ive stayed longer than I thought I would, though my activity is pretty random and I don't post much - makes a change from my signing up somewhere and never going back though I guess

[Kou]

Dude, ****in' tell me about it. :|

I'm barely around but I like to pop in every so often and see whats up. Had good memories way back when... I don't know any of you new ****ers though.

Right there with you. Every now and again I'll pop back, take a look, see new members, new mods then disappear.

Though I've made a lot of friends around the country from this site. Hell I'm boarding a flight tomorrow morning to go to tasmania to hang out with Chalcedony and Juice....yeh, names that probably only a few older members would be vaguely familiar with.

[Dynamo]

Hopefully for some time, people that have responed to posts/threads all seem nice as does the community. I believe i was on this site (or at least a similar site) few years back, but can't remember username or the e-mail i had before this one (had this one 6/7 years now).

[loaf]

I'm leaving tomorrow. BYE ALL

[Rocky]

I'm leaving tomorrow. BYE ALL

Noooooooo!



Don't leave my twin! I will be lost without you...

[Bleachfangirl]

When I first joined, I thought I would stay until the day I died and got eaten by my pet cats...not that I'd ever have any pets, but that's besides the point. Yeah, I thought I'd stick around forever. And I guess that'll still happen, because who can forget this place? I leave for periods of time, but I always come back, and I probably always will. I hope I stick around for a good amount of time. 8)
