What do you love most about AN?
Calebark:
I just love how accepting everyone is.
I used to mainly help around the Biology boards. I thought it'd be weird to go on the normal discussion boards and talk to the regulars -- like it's a closed group. Nooope -- everybody was more than willing to talk!
This even extends beyond the website alone now. One AN member (you know who you are :P ) always messages me on Facebook whenever lectures are about to be released to ensure I get a spot. Another AN members (you also know who you are :P ) tags me in various doggo memes, which I greatly appreciate. Just stuff like this -- it's not just ATAR Notes then everything else. ATAR Notes is a part of everything else.
I've also had a fair few people on VCE Discussion Space ask if I'm Calebark, which is kinda cool. I assume because I post Bio/Phys resources, and that they must recognize my writing style, as this turtle DP obviously isn't me :P

It's awesome going to a forum where awesome people are offering their own time and knowledge in order to help you. I first came here from my Physics teacher who was told about AN by happyphysicsland. The Physics class is using the AN book as a study guide :D
I'll be honest, I came here with the intention of only wanting my essays marked. Just to make posts in order to get enough essays marked. But over the course of these few months I've come to really love this community. Whether it's the quality banter between the mods or the help I'm able to offer to my fellow students. I love being able to help others now, I know the feeling of "oh shit what do I do, my exams in a few days helpmepls" and that feeling when Jamon flies to your rescue by marking your Creative Essay or Mod A essay. I love seeing people get help to some obscure Maths question as well as being able to help people who need help with Maths as well :)
This forum is something special. It's not founded on reciprocity rather generosity. There's almost never disrespect (expect for that teacher impersonator :( ) and everyone's cool with each other.
Shoutout to all the AN staff and all active contributors :) You make this place what it is. Wouldn't be possible without ya'll

Had the exact same experience - and now look at me :) And I'm sure many others were also in the same boat. I think it says a lot that this community is able to turn fairly apathetic students who just think some of the free things on offer are cool into regular contributors (and beyond in your case ;))

Stay for the banter.

:) I'm glad it's turned out this way. I love the atmosphere and the people. I've established awesome relationships and gotten smarter too.
Thanks again :D
