What ENWorld means to me (you).

[Arnwyn]

It's a place that I spend my time reading when I'm at work and should be, um... working.

It's also a place where I learn about a lot of things (D&D and otherwise).

I've made a lot of good friends here, many of them people I've never actually met. I've brushed up against some of my idols in passing (gaming idols, yep).

Really, it's a lot like home.

You pass by gaming idols in your house? That's weird.

Laugh if you wish, but my Gygax Reliquary (polished 24K gold and turquoise inlay) is ready to go. When the time comes in the future when Gary sadly passes from this world, I'm writing his family to bid for his dice-rolling hand.

Without ENWorld, I would not be the gamer or DM that I am today. I owe a lot to Eric Noah and the fine community he started, and to Russ and the fine community he continued. Not to mention the die hard posters that keep us die hard lurkers entertained and informed.

I joined after getting 3E because I was seeking some rules clarifications. After lurking on the boards for a bit, I came to understand how ENWorld was a fairly rare gem in my internet experience: High level of discourse, extremely good moderators and posters who were very smart and very fun. It has become the web site where I spend more time than any other.

It didn't take long to begin regarding the posters here as friends instead of just random voices from the ether. Having met several ENWorld posters over the last year (particularly through the NC Game Days) I've come to realize that almost without exception, these people are as cool face to face as they are on the boards.

To me, this is a great community (in every sense of the word) comprised of great individuals. I consider it an honor and a privelege to be part of this place.

Long live ENWorld!

Darn it! Rel stole my post!

I agree with Rel on every single point. This site has become the community I am most fond of on the net.

I would also add that, for me, this is a place to get a small D&D fix in a life that currently doesn't have much room for it. I get to play very infrequently, so these boards let me keep my mind in it, so to speak.

Lotsa smart folks to help out us less clever clogs, lotsa funny folks to keep us laughing, lotsa thoughtful folks to keep us all civilized.

Lotsa good people.

And I know I'm a better DM because of it.

A place to hear what others have to say. And to make fun of Hal..

ENWorld's a great place to spend time. What's so great about it is that not all time spent here is time lost.

The people are great, the opinions are varied and interesting, the sig's are funny... What could one want more?

Maybe it's just because I don't have as much time to spend on the messageboards, and maybe it's because I don't really "know" anybody on here, but I don't have the warm, fuzzy FAMILY feeling about ENWorld.

To me, ENWorld is a great place to go to keep abreast of what's going on with WotC and all the independent d20 companies in general. Without ENWorld I'd never have been able to keep up with who was releasing what thus far. ENWorld is also a great place to get opinions and information on things just out or almost out. Sometimes it exposes me to things I might not otherwise have thought about, like why so and so in 3.5 should or shouldn't have been changed.

It serves a functional purpose. It's the best site out there for one of my hobbies, and it kills a lot of time at work.
