Some sort of addiction I guess, you sort of feel part of something bigger than your self in a way by being here. Also the vast amount of collaborative knowledge on this website, I have learnt a lot on this website, it is constantly enlightening in the ways of the world.

This is also one of the wittiest communities I have been a part of. I come here to laugh.

This too though. There are some staff who don't use TL anymore, but who I speak with often.

TL is awesome, that's why. I don't know which forums I posted most on, but I'm in TL because of TL, not because of a specific thread.

Hmm it is progaming news/commmunity for me as well. I like it here because BroodWar fans are usually fairly intelligent people. Some exceptions apply :O

the general forum #1

people on tlnet have a broad range of knowledge

from games, computers, science =\, music, movies etc.
whatever you want to know or need to know without acting too desperate, tlnet should be able to help you

when i first came i didn't even know a thing about the professional scene, i was just looking for guides on how to play X race, then when i found out about the pro scene i stayed and now frequent most days. i voted strategy lol, even though at first, seeing as tl isn't the "norm" for a forum layout it was a bit hard to navigate

i tried checking out other sc based sites, but the amount of swearing, noob bashing, general bm on them is just really bad...

Well boredom of course plus the community is very bright and has more then a quite a few cool peeps. I lurked this site + gg.net for almost a year before joining this site..Which I prefer all thou I still lurk gg.net from time to time when I get extra bored.

I used to posts on a couple of car forums when I was into car modifications but you'll be surprised how many ignorant people rant on car forums. Plus i've drifted away from car modifications.

But specially I am amazed by the wide broad of knowledge on the boards...

Edit: I gained my dragoon with this post!

We don't help people with zero posts here. >_>

Anyway, I would like to add that I go to TL because the forums are awesome, and not a cesspool of idiocy (for the most part)

I come to this website for the blogs mostly. I don't really care for the starcraft scene much anymore, but I stay involved in the community mainly out of my daily routine of checking websites. It has just become a habit.

I also enjoy TL Attack.
