    Why Do You Love Hexus?

    Most of you will ask what a strange question. But thought it would be great to see the reasons for people loving Hexus over other forums. Or reason why new comers should stay

    Why should new comers stay?

    I definitely feel like a part of community and want to say thanks to everyone who's contributed. Honestly been valuable

    Re: Why Do You Love Hexus?

    becus I kan type random nonsense on it and no-one corrects my smelling mistaykes or gwammer ones (<all intentional btw) like they do on every other website.
    and I can (within reason) post quite a lot of drivel as well as lots of informative and entertaining stuff and I learn a lot from other interesting and informative people.

    there's lots of other reasons but they all make me sound like a smushy soppy girly
    so i'll just give a and say "keep up the good work chaps/chapesses "

    Ha, smushy soppy girly, made me laugh

    I see there's a lot of users that's been here years I see a lot of new users joining every month and most of us new users start like a fly buzzing around posting trying to fit in and post interesting stuff
    I do try to limit the amount of smilies I use however!

    I've learnt a lot from everyone on here

    Wondering how many here know one another outside Hexus?

    I originally joined since I thought once you got to 20000 posts you got one of the much sort after Hexus coffee mugs.

    It seems the cake was a lie!!

    I have been cheated I say! Cheated!!

    I am going to stop posting on this forum now for the next 5 minutes whilst I check the Steam sale.

    Re: Why Do You Love Hexus?

    One thing which stands out for me, is the mods/admins don't abuse their positions. There are plenty of other forums where the mod is always correct, and disagreeing (or going against the grain of the forum, etc) will get you warned or banned. Here, everyone just participates in discussions/debates together, none of that childish nonsense.
