I'm still new, but I've been around and posting on forums for about 10 years or so and CD forums are just amazing. Over a million registered users and tons of great forums that spark every interest imaginable. I've never been on a forum where I could post off-topic and post about where I live (specifically) all in one location and it's just so nice to have that.
The posters on this forum are great and very friendly. I've felt welcomed since day one and I'm always interested in seeing what people have to say and what they post. It's amazing to see how so many minds can come together in one place and have such amazing discussions and threads. I'm one of those folks who loves off-topic discussions and I've always been that way, keeping me on one subject is nearly impossible to do!
I've found a few threads that I'm really attached to and it's nearly impossible for me not to look at them for one day. The question / peeve / fact of the day are usually the first thing I read when I log on in the morning . The thread activity is unreal compared to the forums I've been on, so many people posting in one thread is something I really haven't ever seen so I'm training myself to keep up with posts and getting to know the outstanding folks of the CD forum .
Enough typing from me now and let's move the subject to YOU!
What is it that brings you to the City-Data forums every day and what do you love about this forum?

The CD forums offer a huge diversity of topics. Something for everybody.
On top of that, CD has many knowledgeable people. I was surprised to see so many informative posts when I first found this forum through Google.
I have a 500 pound ego that needs constant stroking, and even though there are times someone pokes it with a sharp knife or riddles it with bullets, I will always love City-Data!
One thing I like about CD is its a social network without all the flash and grab of Facebook.
(which is fine for some people as it is a wonderful experience for them)
To me my liking is CD, MY wife she loves facebook.
I have seriously met some really nice folks on these threads and honestly consider them friends of mine.
I have been in many groups, and quit many groups for all kinds of reasons, but here it really is different. I never get bored with the same ol', same ol'. Each day brings something new. I've made friends here that I feel like I've known forever. I love learning something new, and getting a chance to see someone else's point of view. I too like the "Other Topics" a great deal... so much to choose from ! It's just FUN! The folks I've met here are awesome, and I feel I am getting to know them. There are even some that when I read what they have to say, I know who they are just from the way they "talk". I love that too. And I guess I like it here so much because even though I am new here too, there is a sense of "Home", family, and old friends. CD is a very special place and I am glad to be a part of it.

Ditto, Quert. I believe you've hit on all my points. I love the diversity of views all collected in one place. We don't have to agree to keep coming back and sharing -- very much like a very large extended family.
