It seems there are very few regular posters at this forum. Thinking about how that should change with the eventual release of BioShock, posting here can sometimes feel a little eerie, like being the first few people at a soon to be huge festival.

i'm sure the forums will grow more and more... maybe more people would join if there would be some forum-member-only competitions.
There seems to be a nice little community forming, which I guess was one intention of the Cult. I don't even think most of my contributions have been strictly Bioshock related.
I've seen with many game-specific forums there's a hive of activity in the months surrounding release, but then it fizzles out. I expect Bioshock will be a special game though and will have a more longer lasting community.
I'd be around more if I could. With my job, I put in lots of long hours. 16 hours days for me are not uncommon. Next week,I have nine in a row coming up. Lots of time I'm here on my lunch break. So many things to do, so little time.
You feel eerie, while I feel a little unsettled. Try being 51 and knowing all to well that your Rapture Mom is younger than one of her "kids". The unsettled feeling soon dwindles once I recall her post, "I love you Kids". Then I just feel all warm and unsettled.posting here can sometimes feel a little eerie,
This is one of very few forums I've actually stuck around at for more than 5 minutes. I think, maybe, that's because it isn't full of dickheads
I too have to juggle the Internet around my work time. And social drinking time. And attending-to-girlfriend's-every-possible-need time. And Oblivion.
Oh sweet Oblivion...

I'm basically (more or less) online all day, so I've generally I've got at least one browser in the stack open at forums.2kgames.com
Dude— part of me wants to say 'I think she just threw that out there', while another part of me thinks I probably shouldn't say anything, since you seem to take such gratification from the comment.The unsettled feeling soon dwindles once I recall her post, "I love you Kids". Then I just feel all warm and unsettled.
Also— that money really seems to be burning a hole in your pocket. Are you sure you can't think of something better to do with it?
Yeah, for example, I can't bear the GameSpot forums at all nowadays. It just boils my piss reading some of the crap those snottly little brats come out with. It's certainly the only place where I've seen a simple console wars discussion (itself, utterly pointless IMO) turn into a racist slagging match
I am when at work, but if the boss saw me typing away on forums instead of attempting my massive back-log of work-stuff... well, I'd be in trouble, anyway...
And at home... untill they find a way to quench the need for World of Warcraft intravenously, trying to peel Mrs.LEC away from the computer is a dangerous thing to even consider.

That tends to happen when the forum is only about one game, and personally, I doubt that if this would be any different if it was a Bioshock only forum.
As it's a 2K forum, there will continue to be a consistent community if the Bx crowd is also into their other games. We'll just have to wait and see what they cook up next.
@LEC: that's the one advantage of a forum for an 'R'-rated game, most people here should be mature.
