Any girl who uses knives and glares to dispatch enemies is clearly a cool lady.
I am a very, very cool lady.
And don't you forget it.

Haha, no I just hate all the snobbery in this forum sometimes =[

If this was in real life, 99% of the people here wouldn't be so cocky
Thankfully I'm not one of those 99% - I post here because of the snobbery. I came to the Escapist a year ago after spending time buried in some of the worst places on the internet, working and playing closely with the virus writers and so-called "hackers" that I could contact for whatever my reasons.

It is, and continues to be, a breath of fresh air to deal with people who generally understand how to spell and have a discussion and, let's face it, it is nice not to be annoyed that someone is trying l337 h@x on my goddamned connection just because they disagree with what I am saying.

Chalk one more up to snobbish elitism!

Because while watching Yahtzee's videos, noticing those threads off to the side of the page and not being able to comment was driving me bonkers. By the "social shapeshifter" thread, I'd finally had enough, so I registered an account.

I stick around and post because it's interesting.
Exactly the same reason for me, I'd be going through zero punctuation and off topic there are really interesting threads that I can't help but notice.

There's a wide array of topics being discussed here, and some of them interest me. And I sometimes get the urge to state my opinion about those topics.

Yes, you and all the elitist pricks in here.
...I can't tell if you're joking or not.
Or if you just have the wrong person.

Hi old lady!

Hiya kid! ;P
Just so we're clear, I'm not getting off of your lawn.
If you hit that ball over my fence one more time, I'm keeping it! And get that flaming bag of dogshit off my porch!

This type of tripe doesn't belong in the Escapist forums.

Report and move on, he's clearly a troll without honest opinion.

A Pure Forum, for a Pure Society!

I joined the Escapist partly because there seemed to be a generally high level of discourse to partake in, but what truly prompted me to join was that someone mentioned Peter Tagtgren, who is my favorite musician and is totally obscure.

Since no one else has mentioned Peter T. since, I mainly write to eloquently share my opinions and EARN TEH L33T BADGEZ

I post here because this is one the most accepting, best sites I've ever visited. The Banhammer here is actually well used here, I love the people, and I'm impressed by the civility every time I come here.

I'd make a "I'm so turned on" joke but I'm afraid it'd be taken seriously.

Yeah, I get that, but I am probably the most laid back person ever.
I'd go so far as to say I was laid back BEFORE it was cool!
All these goddamn apathetic n00bs are just copying me!

...Whoops.
Anyway, I don't recall ever being elitist, but I'm sure it's happens once or twice a post.

Please point out where.

The kids of old would be snarky and walk away.
But I have the internet, so...
"LOL NO U"
*sigh* It's not easy being antique.

Also, I'd be careful.

So, why do you do it?

I started posting here a few months ago, when working on the most boring summer job ever, writing health and safety reports. Since then this forum has become that site I check every time I'm bored or procrastinating.
It gives me a boner.

It's like a drug. I know I need to do some homework but "Oh, look over there, that thread looks interesting! What, it's midnight already?!"
This. Plus, I know quite a few of the folks pretty well, and it's an easy way to contact them.
