I don't necessarily agree with the lonely part though. It might be true for some people but not everyone that attends forums regularly. They have lives outside of the forums and some people only visit while at work or while at school to fill up boredom time. Some people only visit for an hour or so while at home then go on with their social lives. It definitely varies.
