That's what makes this forum so interesting. Most other forums I've seen are mind-numbingly boring because they're just a random group of people wittering on endlessly about the microscopic details of one particular topic. Even if it's a topic you're personally obsessed with, there are going to be times when you just don't care.
This one, on the other hand, is a whole group of people who are all completely different with different interests, and most of them actually seem to have a life, which makes a nice change. We're similar enough to share a certain sense of humour and an interest in some of the same things, but people post messages about whatever they feel like.
Topic-driven message forums just end up repeating themselves ad nauseum, or becoming havens for dribbling fanatics and those unable to cope with reality. I think this forum has a more people-oriented feel to it than most others. It's more like a community or group of friends.
