I'm going to stick around - but I'm hanging out more in /strategy for now (until things cool down here, if you know what I mean...)

Cool down? What are you referring to?

perhaps that every other day the same topics resurface in a new thread...... no one checks threads on other pages...and new threads just push old ones down which already have the answers many of us want

	Put an end to popups!

the poll is missing:

"yes I'm a devoted fan, I will never leave!"

I refuse to vote until the option is there !!!

The same people have been coming here when civ2 came out and been staying here since. More people have come with the extra civ2 releases, the ctp series, smac, etc. Why would I not stick around? Civ players have such better posts than other boards (such as those for a game like GTA3... just to name one among many)

I think you'll get a lot of lurkers out of this. The amt of registered users has gone up, and guests down since Oct31, but posting frequency seems to be staying put.

Yeah I lurk a lot. I never got into the other CIVs or SMAC, but I learned quite a lot very quickly in the CIVIII strategy section. I think I'll stick around. This board has more intelligent posters than most.

I plan on sticking around for a while. Once all this 'newbie' posting drops to a minimum, it will be fun again.

well, I've been here a while. My answer isn't too hard to figure out. Although I do wonder how long I will be here. I can't imagine myself 70 years old and still flaming the newbies .

Seeing as I've been here for 3 years.... a 4th seems not a problem .

Well I'm a newbie but I've been here (many times) before. Stop by as a lurker each time I get a new 4x game or think about getting one to see what the diehard fans have to say about it. Civ III's the first that's got me posting though.

I imagine I'll stick around as long as I'm playing it. When wargame season starts, I'll probably disappear for awhile. Can't forsee when the winds of mood will change clearly enough to estimate in months. But then when 4x season starts up again, I'll dust off my Civs, SMAC, MOOs, CTP, SE4 (surprised ya'll don't have any forums or anything for that one) and come back. Because clearly this is the site for 4xers.


But it's not bad to be an intermittent member. Is it?

I've been at Apolyton so long, not because I love this place, I just can't find the exit.

So... WHAT exactly defines a Newbie? This is only my second post (on my 1st day) on an Apolyton thread, yet I have been using Apolyton for Scenarios for 3 years, have CIV II, CIV III, CTP, SMAC, SMACX and bought CIV in 1991.

And my crappy name thing calls me "Settler". Where's the reward for loyalty to the series in that?

You are a newbie to the site- that is all that matters in our rankins here.

Hopefully you will stick around on the forums for a long time to come.

Hmmm... You seem to have had civ I longer than I, I believe I first acquired it in 1993- then got Civ II in 1995 Alpha Centauri in 1999, Test of Time in 2000 and Call to Power in 2000.

I'm here for good. I've been a frequent lurker since pre-patch SMAC came out. I'm not too worried about being called a "Settler". My first Civ was from 1993, on a Mac Classic II.

I should be sticking around until I stop playing Civ III, unless I can somehow mesh with the comunity. As for when I'll stop playing Civ III, let us just say that at this point it doesn't look likely!

Everyone:

It's been nearly two years since I first showed up at Apolyton. It's a fairly interesting site, full of people who hold varying degrees of my attention, mostly depending on what they post. I'll stick around. 'Poly is one of the "must" destinations on the Internet for me.
