Female members, what attracted you to this forum?

[JuicedUp]

One of my friends has a forum full of male members that want more female members, but their loud demands are not helping. XD My friend is wondering how to attract more female members to post on a forum.

I mean, there are anime sites filled with perverted guys who talk about nothing but exploiting girls, and there are anime sites where guys and girls get along very well, like a family.

So I figured that since there are a lot of women here, I thought I'd ask you all what attracted you to this site?

well I love anime first of all and secondly cause its a VERY active forum which is quite hard to come by these days... I thought st first I'd just come here cause I was bored but everyone seems pretty cool so this place went from "past time" to "when I get home..." And you guys actually have a real place to talk about games! But hey I'm a tomboy so yeah...

The forum only very rarely screams "[Boob]s or the [hell] out" and almost never declares that there are no females on the Internet.

[*Amber*]

well thats good I guess... I just came here the other night cause I was bored and I like anime... so yeah...

[BuLmA]

The reason why I like it here is because I'm already an anime fan & AF is a very interesting site ^^ & also because of my friends here. I love chatting with them. I love stuffs like having a gifts,rupees, & rep power makes me want to have more that's why I'm so active here.

Well I first came here when I did a search for Romance Anime recommendations & got a link to a thread here. Then I ended up joining because I wanted to join a general anime forum.

[Madel5566]

well...since this is real huge and friendly and active community with lots of places to do various discussion.

And people here are understanding and does not make crude comments out of no where...

I dont really know what attracted me to this forum that would be any different than the reason a guy would come here =/ I just come to AF to discuss anime and music and stuff. Plus, this site doesnt have many posts that look like they were typed by third graders unless they have a rep that has plummeted to oblivion >.> I guess thats why I stay here, becuase the members are in line but arent constantly being given warnings for stupid things and infractions and such >.< Read this blog entry if you want an example of what I mean. Other than that I just stay here because I know almost all of the active members pretty well, I mean what fun is a site where you dont know anybody? =/ Plus I have a lot of friends here that are like family to me ^.^;

[OminousCloud]

What attracted me to the forums?... the part where it's about anime... yup that's pretty much it.

[Memento Mori]

My friend brought me here, and now she doesn't even come on anymore. I don't even think she had a registered account. O.o' Oh, and I liked anime. - -

[onigiri princess]

[Alicaryn Silentread]

[Asriel]

Well anime for one.But.......

Knowing that there are alot of romance anime,
Knowing that there would be plenty of people to chat with
knowing that there are many fun things to do here.

Also because I was bored and needed a pretty sweet forum to join.

Thats about it ^^

[SuXrys]

Hm.. I dont really know what is was that attracted me to this forum. But I guess it has a little to do with that I knew some people on this site.
But besides, it is a active forum, that attracts people from every gender.

[Myrra]

I came to this site ages ago cos I was looking for sailor moon pics. I stuck around cos I like the people and the community. A good gallery is helpful in attracting people, a good community is what gets people to stay.

[Ryth]

Try making threads about your feelings.

[sa5m]

Ummm I guess it's that there are actually educated people on here? I like to read posts that actually make sense. =)

I don't remember how I first found this forum... It was such a long time ago!

[jewel2sparkle]

Errr....I'm not really "attracted" to the forum.

[-Kitsune-]

Errr....I'm not really "attracted" to the forum.

It wasnt supposed to mean you have a crush on the site oe something XD It means what brought you here to AF, what qualities/stuff made you sign up. So you should have some sort of an answer =/

[Derrick Remon]

Don't lie girls! You obviously came for us Good looking men, lol. j/k ^__^

But, my real opinion is because they must like...Anime? xD

[jewel2sparkle]

The diction of the thread totally makes it sound that way...."Female Members"... "attracted"...
I know what it meant but I don't really see the fun in answering the right way...
But I'm pretty sure I signed up because I was bored and I post a lot because I like to look at my sig. So yeah...

[lovelicious]

I was looking for some pics of Naruto and Fruits Basket until I found this forum. I decided to sign up and ... yahh... I realize that I love this forum. ^^
There are a lot of nice and friendly people, which makes me feel more comfortable for being in here.

[JuicedUp]

Thanks guys.

[CrimsonMoon]

Because AF has everything; forum, gallery, games, chat, blogs, bank. Plus it's very active.

[Gizoku]

I was actually looking for pictures for drawing tips.
I was exploring the site anomously for about a week until I saw another branch off site, which happened to be the trunk of the whole thing.
I got interested because of the things people wrote up and what things they had to offer.
