I'm new. I've been reading a lot, but I've never answered a question till now. I happen to enjoy this site a lot! I'll start to use it more. I found it googling too. I wanted to find an advice column and this came up.

I found this site looking for an answer to some deep burning question, cannot remember what it was now but it was very important at the time. The Help Desk link popped up on good ol' Google and when I got here, I looked around at other posts and was hooked. This is the only addiction I do not plan on repenting of. Lol. Well, that and chocolate.

I honestly do not even remember how I came to this site. I think it was from somebody else on another site that recommended this site. Sure enough since signing up it has been an awesome experience. Lot of good people here.

I found this site while googling for something. It popped up with a question someone else had asked. I am surprised by how much I love this site though. It is really cool.

I don't remember the exact thing that I was looking for on Google. One of the links in my search lead me to here. When I found how the site was organized and monitored so well, I got hooked.

Thought we knew

I found this site the same way you did! I always have questions, it's nice knowing hat I can help answer other people's questions and they can do the same for me!

I did a search to get advise on a question that I wasn't comfortable asking my family or friends. It wasn't a matter of privacy - I just figured they had too many biases to tell me the truth. I like the objectivity of the site, and the occasional disagreements make for stimulating debate. Great question.

I was googling for "who can tell me about regency era regimental gorgets" and this was one of the sites. The other site was an antique armour forum. Neither could answer my questions, but I am addicted to AMHD anyway!

Yup I was looking for a Movie "Bagdad Cafe" couldn't find an answer anywhere, and it was driving me crazy. I searched on Google for Movie Trivia and this popped up in one of the searches... I have been hooked ever since, and have made some nifty friends in the process.

Somebody unhappy with another site posted a question about other sites, and somebody mentioned AMHD. In general I consider it unethical to promote one site on a competitive one.

There were dog questions here I could help with. I also saw many other Home and garden questions I could give a better answer to. As we have added new members, I am answering fewer questions outside dogs. I now mostly leave them for those knowing more than me. I mostly jump in when I see a bad answer. Three other people beat me to it when somebody posted in electrical that aluminum wasn't a conductor. I hope the OP didn't leave in disgust.

I had been a member of another Q&A site that is imploding, so I joined the other rats who were leaving a sinking ship to hop on board this ship.

I work many many hours at my computer and I was upset over a real estate transaction and I typed in real estate questions and here I am, Spending working and non working hours on here. I hope my empathy for humans and animals have helped someone. I try to be kind:), but sometimes I do get a little riled up . :(

Interesting, it seems this site was found by accident for most of the people who responded, including me! I was looking up anything to help get my mind in a better place about the loss of a friend. I was googling quotes that were inspirational or related to grief and poems. All of a sudden I saw this link and after I checked it out, I had to reach out for some help. My first post was really difficult for me. (How do I manage this existence) I got so much feedback, support, and even found some friends. It has been my saving grace because I can't talk to people I know about everything. (Long story) Weird enough, I have never been in a chat room or anything, so this really was my first experience with talking to strangers. They have come to be a support system that I count on more than my own friends, is that weird??

As I recall I was invited to participate when the original AskMe.com closed. A few sites contacted me asking me to take a look at their offerings.
