Poll: Why are you active on physicsforums?

[micromass]

We all enjoy polls, so I thought that I would ask you all why you are active on PF. Multiple answers are allowed!

Need help with the poll? Ah, you did it!

Its in the "Other." category.

No, that's under the "I like the community" option.

Where is the check box for "I found a flaw that disproves general relativity, and now I just need some help on the math part"?

Buwahaha.

 

[autodidude]

mainly cause I'm self-studying and need all the help i can get, but also for motivation and what wukunlin said

 

[Ivan92]

I like helping other people! Plus reading about science and tech is awesome! Of course, the community is awesome! By community, I mean the part without micromass :P

Just messing micro! :D

I'm studying abuses of the English language by the best and the brightest academics dedicated to the most exacting and rigorous standards. So far the results are very encouraging. In this day and age of cut backs I may have found a way to secure research grants for life...

I voted 'other'. It's just become sort of a habit. I look at my email, I look at my Amazon account and maybe shop a bit, and I look at recent PF postings. There's always something in the postings at PF that I can learn from. Sometimes I happen on a thread that's of particular interest to me. Or that I want to learn about ... so I might elect to 'contribute' to the thread. Wrt to this particular thread, it's about 5AM here, and I'm not tired but I don't feel like getting into any of my various projects, or watching a movie, or a documentary, or the usual early morning TV stuff, or exercising, so PF is a nice diversion. That's about it I think.

I just enjoy the vibe ;)

Physics forums? I thought this was Psychics forums.

Pathetic strategy. I recommend a daily dosage of bar to get rid of it.

PF needs a dating forum .

Well. I looked at some dating sites and even some meat markets. It's sociologically interesting, but, apart from that, they all looked like money shakers to me.

The only person I knew who actually made online dating work for him was a young network manager who run a dating site with a few friends and optimized everything (background study + cool hair, cool clothes, cool car, fast talk, etc.) towards dating virgins. Guy used to brag about dating two sixteen year olds a month. Talk about a somewhat odd business model.
