I hate you all. Well, most of you, and that's the God's honest truth. Maybe I have been missed from here this past week, maybe I haven't, and I don't care. However. I'm getting bored. I also need to win GAD. But, I don't want to post an undefended GAD topic (or three, currently) like so many other people do. That's the main reason I've left. I keep wanting to come back but I just sit in front of the FOG, click on a thread, sigh and walk off again.

So...

Convince me to come back. I need good reasons here. I have totally lost interest in this place (yes, both of them) so I need you guys to interest me, so I can come back and enjoy myself here again, which honestly I haven't done in a LONG time. If not I may never come back, and maybe some of you don't care and that's fine. Maybe some of you do care and that's fine also. I, however, do care. I miss you guys and if you miss me as well then that's one very good reason already.

I loathe MSN. I only keep it to alert me of Hotmail.

I tried to immerse myself in a myriad of different games, but had to pull myself back here at least once a day just to see what was coming next and what people thought about it.

Nicely said FM, you were away for about 2 months. But the feel of winning a game and typing on the keyboard discussing anything that springs into mind was something that proved just too hard to stay away from.

This place is like a drug, once you've had some of it you just need to come back for more. We're all addicted and it's not surprising why.

But it's because we are all week, SR saw this website as an oppertunity to lure in the week people so we'd spend time online then begin to buy games from them until eventually we had no money left and they were all rich.

FantasyMeister does have a point - these forums are damn addictive! It could be that I'm simply a "newbie" and you're a dedicated "Regular"Q. What I'm saying is that I'm getting into the swing of things, but when you get to being registered for 300 days +, maybe the fun that was there a year earlier is now gone. Turbonutter, am I on the same wavelength here? During everyone's stay, there will be one or two people (or maybe more) that will spoil it for everyone, by spamming etc. Maybe that's driven you out of here. When you say you hate us, do you really mean that? Hate is a strong word, how can you use it to be judgemental to people that you've probably never even heard of, such as myself. Do you really mean it? No. Will you leave? I doubt it, but it's your choice and I nor anyone else can make that choice for you.

(And to bate the nintys of course).

Even the staff are hooked. The day Mr Snuggly gets sacked for posting made up news stories about Metal Gear Solid 2 because he doesn't want to know the plot before he plays it is the day he'll start posting here full time. The day Tony retires and hands over the reins of the business to another entrepreneurial person, is the day that the PC forum will finally start to get some new posts in it.

There's no cure. You're stuck here mate.
