(Got this idea from @Paleopony)
When you decide to go to the MLP Forums (on a daily basis, weekly, or anything really), do you choose to do it to escape your current life, or do you do it to improve your life?
If you think about it, both things are good things. Sometimes life can be very difficult, and you need to find a way to escape it for a while. The other side is of course to improve your life because you might already have a good life/time, but the forums just make things better?
