So, 10 questions for people about their TOL experience. I'm going to create an index of posters/answers using the second post and move my answers to the latest post. :cheers:
1. When you first arrived how much experience did you have with internet forums and were you surprised by what you encountered?
2. Is the person you appear to be an exaggeration of who you actually are, who you actually are, or is it unlike who you are in the real world?
3. If you could change one thing about the way things are here what would it be?
4. Is there a rule you'd like to add to the TOL list?
5. Have you changed ideologically or personally since you first arrived and if so did TOL play a role in that change?
If yes, then how dramatic or slight was the change?
If no, has TOL given you a wider appreciation of different perspectives, or do you hold the same opinions about them?
6. What was your primary reason for deciding to stick around here for a while?
7. Do you believe that anonymity has an overall liberating and/or negative effect on posters and posts here?
8. Has your exposure to the views found here contributed to your having a more/less favorable impression of religion?
9. Has your exposure to the views found here contributed to your having a more/less favorable impression of atheists?
10. Are you more or less emphatic in your beliefs of in any particular belief you came to TOL with as a direct result of your time here?
