Title: Do you see yourself still on Geekhack in the next 2-3 years?
Post by: Air tree on Tue, 15 March 2016, 01:33:13: I don't know where the hell I'll be or what I'll be doing, but unless this site goes tits up and sours for me, I'll probably be here for a while, I haven't found another forum I like better. :-*

Post by: xtrafrood on Tue, 15 March 2016, 01:45:09: I'll probably stick around. The people of GH have pushed me to grow quite a bit. Lots of cool people, why not stick around right?

Post by: rowdy on Tue, 15 March 2016, 01:52:51: I've been here about three and a half years so far.

It has become a habit.

Post by: jaffers on Tue, 15 March 2016, 02:05:15: Yes, I think as long as you diversify your social environment, staying on geekhack and contributing is quite easy. If you make it your only outlet for socialization or the bulk or it i.e. no life, things get toxic and sour

I'm here for the long run, I want to go to keycon in a few years! :D

Post by: Fiery on Tue, 15 March 2016, 04:09:32: No clue to be completely honest, I really enjoy this forum. But I might get bored, or get busy with other stuff in my life in 2 years. So who knows, only time will tell ;)

Post by: nmur on Tue, 15 March 2016, 04:15:35: the only way i can see myself leaving here is if the site goes down/ddosed for an period long enough for me to fill that time with something else

like maybe 7-8 years ago i used to spend hours on 4chan, until it got ddos'd for ages and i moved on

Post by: appleonama on Tue, 15 March 2016, 06:31:49: I probably will but last year I was very inactive. When I only had topre boards I plateaued because there is nothing better than topre.

In three years it will have been 10 years since I registered; I'm hoping for a present of some sorts.

Post by: funderburker on Tue, 15 March 2016, 09:05:01: Well, I'm here just a few months but I'll probably stay here a long time. Really like that everyone's so friendly and just joking all the time. Don't know any keyboard enthusiasts IRL though. Would be cool to go to a meetup somewhere, just because I'm all alone. Y'all my family, dawgs/gettes!

Makes me sad to think about one day not logging in here though... I love you guys way too much. :'(

Post by: 27 on Tue, 15 March 2016, 19:50:57: To be honest I'm not sure. There are so many things I enjoy about this community, but without being able to further my relationships with people on here, it's hard for me to feel like I really belong. The positivity and support here has gotten me through a lot of personal issues, but I'm scared those personal issues will get in the way of me giving back.

Post by: LiquidEvilGaming on Wed, 16 March 2016, 14:40:44: On a side note somewhat related to the topic coming from someone still fairly new to GH. The reason i started posting more here lately even though i frequent a few other KB forums etc. Is the community seems much more welcoming and less volatile here than several other places. Lot's of people talk about GH being drama this drama that,but honestly my experience has been pretty positive personally.

You've been here about 10 months, you've probably seen a few little dramas.

Mind you things have been pretty good for most of this year :)
