Leaving this place

fwgx · 22nd October 2002, 13:44

No I'm not leaving, I was wondering how long you can see yourself visiting these forums for. A year more? two? forever? When will there be no more of the founding farthers?

Merlin · 22nd October 2002, 14:09

When there's no-one left who I get along with.

Illusion · 22nd October 2002, 15:01

Whem rm' and Boplicity get banned.

Oh wait, that already happened, looks like I'll be leaving then

Naamloos · 22nd October 2002, 15:17

I just need a reason to leave it, and i think im strong enough to do so

but there is no reason to do so (xcept for taking 15 min each day of surfing, or more when im bored) but that's not a pain in the ass

binary hero · 22nd October 2002, 15:23

i'll leave when life gets too busy, but i'll try and slip out of the back door, maybe keep on coming back from time to time until i forget about this place.

hgnis · 22nd October 2002, 15:34

I'll leave when my IT servers start blocking this site...

22nd October 2002, 15:35

I'll leave this place when my Alzheimer's gets so bad I'll forget the forums are even here.

binary hero · 22nd October 2002, 15:44

imight leave when the "what would you do" thread hits 100 pages.

rm' · 22nd October 2002, 15:57

At which point, I too will leave, as there would be no more members of my fan club of one.

zootm · 22nd October 2002, 16:42

i dunno... every post i make is less intelligent than the last... i'll prolly leave when there's no sense left in me at all...

i'm guessing at about 2000 posts...

. - .... .- -. .... · 22nd October 2002, 16:57

I won't leave until every last one of you is banned

Or so some people would lead you to believe...

Jedi Gemstone · 22nd October 2002, 16:59

I'll leave when I'm the oldest person here or when lifes to exciting to stay around. I don't see either of these happening soon so I'll stay around here as long as I can!

c2R · 22nd October 2002, 17:07

Interesting question.... I'd leave if there was no longer any enjoyable threads, or threads which made you think.

On busy days for me, I'd come here briefly like I'd check my email. On days when work is slow, I spend more time here, as there's less for me to actually do...

Vie · 22nd October 2002, 18:25

untill I run out of computers.

dam · 22nd October 2002, 18:28

I'd leave if life gets too hectic.

TheOrgasmicMe · 22nd October 2002, 18:29

if i ever grow up

Shenlong · 22nd October 2002, 20:36

I only leave forums if it turns to shit. Basically why I left the Skateboarder Mag forums. Idiots took over the place, and next thing you know, spamming topics about Hitler and homosexuality were all that was left. The place wasn't even modded, so it will be a long time until that would happen around here...

Trigear · 22nd October 2002, 20:39

i think eventually apathy and laziness get to me, and i leave. i forget how many forums i've joined and left.

it takes work to keep coming to a forum when the threads no longer interest you (for instance, right now i haven't seen all that many great threads here in gd for a while. there are one or two, but not as many as there were two months ago. i'm forcing myself to come here every day until it picks up.)

when they take the internet away, destroying freedom of speech because of people like me bringing the world the truth, the world will eventually wake up.

I think I will leave when the shadow government takes away our computers.

Bilbo Baggins · 22nd October 2002, 22:27

I will leave when i start to be funny.

I will leave Winamp the day that the Winamp forums are closed.

Spiffed · 23rd October 2002, 02:19

i'll leave when... well... when anytime in the past month other then now....

maybe i'll start coming back when i find myslef yourning for other intelegent (err.. um.. different) people at 3am again..

henry3k56 · 23rd October 2002, 02:37

I will leave when I become non-existant, and/or dead, and/or poof, and/or under 6 feet of dirt, rock, and/or in a peaceful little coffin, and/or Never. Or if I outlive Winamp, then probably when they close the forums down.

I am Jesus · 23rd October 2002, 04:11

I haven't been here for too long at all so I'm still going to stay. I don't know when I will leave.

Avalon · 23rd October 2002, 04:14

Well I'm the newest one here, so I figure until I get sick and tired of Winamp (never) of your antics (never) or when I get laid (never)... waitaminute....

Twilightseer · 23rd October 2002, 08:11

Don't feel like leaving at all

mmitchell86 · 23rd October 2002, 08:32

I'll probably leave when Bilbo (or anyone else come to think of it) start agreeing with any of my 'political' postings.

Some1 · 23rd October 2002, 11:19

I'll leave as soon as I have an Internet connection that's good enough to play online games and download Divx movies/MP3's again...in fact, the reason I started coming here in the first place is that I found that my wireless internet connection is too unreliable for any of the above activities, so posting to forums is about all I can do.

s1138 · 23rd October 2002, 13:01

i will leave when they close

i figure ive been here over 2 years already...why not stay.

golferboy32531 · 23rd October 2002, 14:21

I will leave when I no longer have access to a computer PERMANENTLY. (Read:death, acts of God Himself, etc)

However, there have been and will be long breaks from time to time because of school, family situations, etc. If I go into the army as an officer, then I will have about a 4 to 10 weeks without posting. So, if I'm gone for a while, don't worry, I'm just dealing with Life. If I'm gone for more than 1 year, then worry.

i was gone for..maybe a few days but nobody really cares about that

nereis · 23rd October 2002, 20:03

I do believe I am the newest member

The forums seem interesting enough so I guess I'll stick around . I can't say for how long . Consistency has never been one of my strong points.
