    I was looking up information on Celtic mythology and found a link for the site, I looked around and joined because it looked like an interesting place to learn from.

    From trading in my cow for some magic beans! Just kidding. Google searched mythology forum, and felt lucky. I wanted a place where I could inquire about specific mythological topics. So I signed up.

    surfing the internet because I was looking at Clash of the Titans on TV and was curious about some of the characters (medusa for one). Google is a wonderful thing!!!

  8. I think I remembered seeing a sponsored ad on Facebook for a forum on Greek Mythology, but didn't give it much thought.

    A few days ago, I discovered that Yahoo Answers had a Mythology & Folklore section, and I avidly posted answers in there for a few days, but grew disillusioned with it, since half of the questions consisted of the following: "am i a vampre cuz i thin i am?"(sic), "What is happening to me?", "Did Miniature Humans Populate Earth 12,000 Years Ago?", "Is there a mermaid spell that TRULEY!!! Works?"(sic), "You know anywhere I can discuss Mythology & Folklore in an semi-educated and largely troll-less environment?", "do gingers have souls?". . . And these are some of questions that have been asked only in the last five hours. I can't tell you how many "Am I a [insert vampire, werewolf, mermaid, or demigod here]? questions I've seen, and I daresay most of you could tell which was the question I posed to the group. the last straw was when my knowledgeable answers (not trying to sound vain, but don't quite know how else to put it), and in some instances excerpts directly copied from one of my reference books (and given proper credit, of course) were repeatedly given "thumbs down."

    Anyway, earlier, I googled "mythology forum," and this was a top result. I also found the Greek Mythology forum, but it didn't seem too spectacular. Hopefully this website will be free from the Percy Jackson and Twilight-obsessed teeny-bopper yahoos that infested Yahoo Answers. :)
