1 I found ZK on a free games list from bay12 forum because I ran out of games to play at the time and didn't want spend any money to buy new ones. Spring and ZK were on that list (at the time) so I decided to try a couple of Spring games and then ZK out. I was kind of afraid of trying ZK because it seemed the most hardcore, compelex and developed one but in the end I stuck with it because it was much better than BA or NoTA and had a much better community than these two. 1 I found ZK on a free games list from bay12 forum because I ran out of games to play at the time and didn't want spend any money to buy new ones.

3 I stayed because I was really into hardcore, as complex games as possible playing such games like Dwarf Fortress or heavily modded Arma 2 and ZK managed to satisfy my need to learn new strategies and mechanics of the game. Especially that I was pretty much only "getting into" the RTS genre at the time. Which ultimately spoiled me as an RTS player because I rarely can play RTS games without the excelent UI that ZK has like line move and fight commands. 3 I stayed because I was really into hardcore, as complex games as possible playing such games like Dwarf Fortress or heavily modded Arma 2 and ZK managed to satisfy my need to learn new strategies and mechanics of the game.

5 Nowdays I still hang around mostly because of the community (especially my clanmates) and to some degree nostalgia not the thrill of figuring the game out anymore since I think I mostly know how it works nowdays. Though I'm still pleasantly surprised that people find new strategies and playstyles, that haven't been thought of before. Also I guess I'm still here for that eventual steam release when I will propably finally satiate my need to play ZK which pretty much limits me mostly due to low number of players and inability to have fair 1v1 matches.
