Why are you still here?

In many communities a survey of people active five years ago will turn up maybe one or two that are still around.
Yet when I read the old roguelike usenet postings I recognize the majority of the poster’s names.

What factors have kept you from leaving?

Why are you still here?

    I like roguelikes and this is one of the better hubs to keep track of the scene.

    It’s the nature of roguelikes that they have a timeless quality; people don’t play them because they have the newest whiz-bang graphics, they play them because they’re fun and incredibly replayable. This is why we’re still here.

    Because I haven’t yet had all I can eat, obviously.

    I am heavily burdened and can’t climb the stairs to get out.

    It’s because I am a robot.
