I mention it here and there--especially when I'm asked what I did that day.

One does. And that's because he also uses it, how should I know? It's not like I go and tell everyone that I do. I don't think they'd be particularly interested.

I think it's because most of my friends ( who are sort of nerdy ) are all, apart from some , are console gamers and they just wouldn't know what I am talking about so have never really brought up this site in convo

Yup, they ask me about PC stuff. I mention this forum where he can ask questions.

Yup, when talking with friends about tech stuff. I mention this forum for them to check out.

Yup, when talking to my grandma about flower stuff. I mention this forum so he can check out how awesome Slicks car is.

Nope, not quite sure I would like my friends to know that I visit such obscure websites as this one - who knows what they'd think? (I much prefer them to believe any knowledge I have concerning computers and electronics to be gained from a practice of dark magics)

Cheers,

Linus
