Why Did You Join the V7N Community?

**Cricket** · 03-26-2007, 11:34 AM

What made you decide to become a member of the V7N community?
Did you lurk for a while first? Or, just join right away?

Sad, aren't I?

pctec · 03-26-2007, 11:47 AM

I wouldnt say that exactly...
Are you sad?

You can cry on my shoulder if need be...

There is nothing sad about good research!

I confess.. I lurked several days before displaying myself. I could not resist being a part of this hilarious solution-loaded online world.

We sure are glad you decided to join us!

I have been around since the old forums, so it has been quite some time. I know that I lurked for a few days, or maybe even weeks before actually joining. I can't remember exactly what it was, but there was something I wanted to see that it wouldn't let me unless I joined first -- perhaps it was the Private SEO Forum? Or, maybe I just couldn't stand not being able to respond to the topics and ask questions.

One thing I remember clearly though is that the people seemed so friendly that I just knew it was a community that I wanted to be a part of.

It seems I am always doing something that is not common or almost nobody does, or thought of, or hitting weird problems. I always do searches for answers but lots of them come up completely dry. On many of those, this forum showed up in the results a number of times and once in a while even had an answer where no one else did. After noticing that, I was here hunting another obsure answer and joined. I have been haunting members since

After reading more than just the threads that might have the answer I was looking for, I found this wacky group of people who have fun and share knowledge, experience, and even a little wisdom from time to time.

Now I'm addicted!

I don't remember exactly. I do know I was doing a lot of research and somehow came across this website. I knew I would join immediately after visiting as the place has a kind of "home" comfortable, community feel. Glad I did!

Daniel-Z · 03-26-2007, 02:32 PM

I joined V7N because V7N KICKS FUC*IN ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

tnk · 03-26-2007, 03:57 PM

I joined v7n to learn how to improve my website and what's the latest

**G10** · 03-26-2007, 04:27 PM

I lurked for a while and then joined as I knew nothing about website promotion and wanted to learn.

Now, almost 2.5 years later, I'm still no better off

Actually, it's a great place as there are definitely a lot of good folk here and a lot of the people here have become my virtual family

Sorry guys, nowhere else would have me

I joined 5 months before I made my first post. I never really lurked, I just sort of forgot about it. Then one day, I think in November, I got bored at my frequented forum, and didn't like many of the other forums that I went to occasionally, and I remembered this place. So I came back, and now it's my second home.....I found out quick that this is a forum that you can find inspiration, I love the feel of community here, and there are very few condescending attitudes, though, it's necessary once in a while....

I was told there would be free cheese. As of yet I have seen none. NONE!

**John Scott** · 03-26-2007, 05:25 PM

I joined for the sex.

greg · 03-26-2007, 05:30 PM

wow it has been somewhere between 6-7 years since I have joined this place.

Back when john started it he was running adwords fairly heavily to build traffic(along with many other things). I was searching for something and clicked through adwords and found it. So I guess I owe john about $.45 or so.

Anyway, I just loved the community. It was young back then, only about 5 or so regulars. I use to be fairly active, was john's first mod actually. I just lost time for it i guess. I still look in from time to time though

the more webmaster forums u visit, the more u learn!

joecacia · 03-26-2007, 06:06 PM

I was looking around to have some information because I wanted to get into Graphic Design college, I didn't think I will be stuck for ever with an amazing group like V7

EBORG9 · 03-26-2007, 06:09 PM

Ferre pissed me off in the politics forum, so i had to join to respond to him.

Just kidding, I enjoy his spirited discussion.

I don't know how i got here, but what is worse is, i can't seem to leave. I have to stop by everyday to see what's going on, like it's one of your favorite bars that you must check out to see what's going on and say Hi.
