I thought it would be fun to ask KYM users the main reason on why they keep coming back to the site:

1-Research (Info/images)

2-The community (social)

5-Moderation quality/methods/ideals

4-Dumb fun

5-Other?

And what do you think could be inproved and in which direction the site should focus more for a better experience? (try to think in what is best for everyone, not just you).

Because the Users here also deal with depression (Or so I've seen), so I feel accepted, but also because I'm a lazy worthless nobody with social and regular anxiety with no real job or career, so I have nothing better to do with my time.


….I'ma be a buzzkill somewhere else now.

@Op nice post.

I keep coming back for a mix of reasons. I like to try to give back what ever possible I can to do the website that really got me interested in internet memes. I enjoy the "contribution" aspect. Even though it is all voluntary, I can only do so much so trying is enough. (not everyone has to be SuperMan).

The community aspect is fine, even though things can get tiring, I feel it's ok for what it is. Also, in a community you can do certain things to irritate other users unintentionally, not every one is going to like you and can't make everyone happy. I just try to be funny in hopes that maybe just buy giving someone a laugh, they can find enjoyment, because I've had some really good laughs and experienced a lot of cool people and general knowledge of things that I probably never would have if I didn't try to be open minded and give people a chance to express themselves. For the people who are genuinely nice to me, I always appreciate it and really try to give back the same respect.

In a sense you have to keep coming back to be better at it, and lack of motivation is a struggle for me honestly. But if I helped anyone, it makes be feel better.

All I can think of right now.

At this point it's mostly dumb fun and perhaps a feeling of familiarity.
Actually learning about new internet stuff is likely second.
The community is third, though less for being a proper part of it and more for watching certain people in action.

I originally came here because I love the thought of documenting things and having an easy to access and use database of information regardless of what it's about as long as it doesn't invade privacy.

I created an account because I really like this site's community and because I wanted to express myself and help document memes, e-celebs and internet happenings (even though I've barely done that so far).

When I first discovered this site, I used it to learn about memes. I stayed for the what I believe to be the best internet community that there is. Which isn’t saying much, but still.
