Cleopatra92 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Hello! I go by Cleopatra92 on the internet usually. I'm 26, female, and live in the USA. I love Dragon Age, Britney Spears, Star Wars, ASOIAF, The Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Warcraft, Harry Potter, The Sims, Star Trek, The Office, YouTube, and a few other things. I've been looking for an active forum to join. I miss when I was a teenager and all I would do is post on forums at all hours of the night, so I'm trying to recapture a small piece of that lol. I look forward to posting here, and thanks to everyone in advance for possibly reading this lol DC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Welcome to VGR! I too remember being a teenager and participating on many active forums. Those were fun days. It seems forums are a thing of the past now (generally speaking) because of alternatives like Slack, Discord, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, and Facebook Groups. It's really a shame but there are just too many apps and alternatives these days. However, despite all this being said, VGR is here to stay and we hope to grow into a massive gaming forum. Thanks again for joining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can say that his analysis is correct for the most part and although I have seen a growth in gaming forums popularity over the past 2 years, the other types of forums are quickly becoming obsolete.

Don't get me wrong, I like discord for basically using it like teamspeak or vent but otherwise no thanks. 5 hours ago, UleTheVee said: Really now?

I think this really depends on the type of forum, like you said. Like I have my own Britney Spears forum (judge me if you want, idc anymore lol) and since her career is on the downhill slide into retirement and most of the type of people that visited my forum all care more about Instagram and crap. So it's been rough going there but I leave it open for the 10-12 of us that still use it and the memories. I'm sure this explains why I'm so determined to find a new forum to love too lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is an awesome artiste - it is a shame the path her career took but I do quite like her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that lol Personally I really think she doesn't want to do music anymore and she doesn't want to be famous anymore. I just don't see any other logical reason for how half-assed everything she does now is lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just goes to show you far the quality of music has fallen over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still like a few newer artists, but I've already started that thing I used to judge my mom for where I only like the music from when I was younger and I have a hard time liking new stuff lol XD I guess I just get jealous of people that stan for someone like Beyonce who's quality has roughly stayed the same her entire career (which started at about the same time as Britney's). But c'est la vie I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
