i actually do not know how it happened. I got an email one day from my broadband i think(after a couple i overlooked) and saw diablo 3 competition, than joined up as a result. Soon after i saw' hey they have game trailers here and i can get hardware advice) So i stuck as a result since my pc was also on the fritz and was able to get a solution after that. No point winning pc games when your pc is fried. lol
It started with MyGaming's competitions. Most people like free stuff. But even that pales eventually.
What keeps me coming back [when I can] are the people [*cough* OmegaFenix *cough*] on this forum, and Lady Thunderaxe's columns.
Oh-and the reviews are handy too.
I joined after friends told me about the site. I was already a member of the local PS3ZA community and MyGaming promised something a bit more multi-platform orientated. What keeps me coming back are the awesome competitions, the informative members and just the general wealth of information that can be accessed either by reading through existing threads or simply by creating a new one and asking a question. :)

I joined after seeing it advertised on MyBB. I joined right in the beginning of it all and it felt like home straight away. Good news and articles and best of yet great people. I have made some great friends off MyGaming (yes in real life) which for me is priceless.

To be honest I joined after hearing about the diablo comp you guys had a few weeks back, but I've been coming back to read about the different gaming related posts and other forum topics :)
I've always tried to avoid forums to be perfectly honest, but something about this forum keeps me coming back.
I may not comment on everything, but I like to read about the topics that you guys and this community post about.
I run a games business and need to make sure I am on the cutting edge of news and good reviews.Quote:

I don't even know if I have the 20 posts required to qualify but, hey, after 19 more of these competitions I'll eventually be eligible, right? Talk about being a patient victor!
* I know it's not technically free if I have to do something for it, but that's not the point. What I mean is, I enjoy free stuff :)
Admittedly I was also lured into joining for the goodies and giveaways. However, after the first competition came and went and I was unsuccessful in grabbing whatever it was that was up for grabs, I found myself coming back to argue with local hotheads about the state of the gaming industry, and to check out all the interesting tidbits dug up by the mygaming community.
Currently, the competitions are a big draw for me to visit the website, but as soon as I've checked the competitions threads, I start browsing news and forums to see what the state of gaming is at the moment.
I joined mygaming to find out the latest local gaming news, and when iGame joined the forum as well made things evens better ... for me at least :p
