    It's been a long day. Not a particularly nice one either. And I'm tired.

    MyGaming is my home. The people here are my friends and I care about them a lot. The people here are great.

    Sometimes the MyGaming forum gets very quiet and I start to worry whether it will continue going and then MyGaming gives away prizes and the forum gets busier again. Some of the people that come here for the prizes stay and become regulars. Sometimes regulars who have been here for years just disappear and we don't hear from them again. I like the newbies coming here and I like it when they too become part of this great community.
    [MENTION=14610]Slitza[/MENTION], you are not one of them. Your attitude stinks. You appear to be a jerk. I can honestly say that we don't want you here... except if you change your attitude.

    Everyone else, who may just so happen to be new to MyGaming or maybe you are a lurker, welcome to MyGaming. The people here are awesome. They are like family to me. Some haven't been here long. Some were here since the beginning.

    Join us. We don't bite... most of the time.

    Well said.
    I consider a lot of people here my friends and u haven't met half of you. I'd trust them more so over most people I know in real life.

    I've been registered for quite some time, but didn't really post. Then came back sometime late last year (think it might have been a comp at the time) and ever since I have been here.

    Old members are definitely not hostile. Yes it does take some time to work yourself into the community, just like with a new group of strangers, but once you do it is great.

    Starting off with negative comments, without posting any solutions or ideas to the things you find negative will definitely not help.

    Honestly I didn't even think the competitions were to draw in new members lol. I thought it was to reward members for their activity.

    But I do believe it's a reasonable way to get some new traffic to Mygaming, and besides if it makes people stay then it is good.

    Since there have been people that joined because they saw the comps I wouldn't say that they are useless.
    Almighty legit one.

    I was almost completely inactive on the forum from the time I joined until about 2013. The only reason I started posting was because of an activity contest, and that was when I realised people actually cared about what I said.
