I'd heard of the porn but the conversation was what drew me--I got tired of standing over my boyfriend-of-the-time's shoulder and watching him lurk without posting. Everyone seemed so interesting.
TFP was my first exposure to the forum experience. Two things we do well that I see on other forums--discouraging trolling and generally being respectful. We have fun but not at someone else's expense--usually. Obviously there are exceptions even here. I occasionally lurk around some forums dealing with the manga/anime
Naruto, but I never post because there is nothing I want to respond to. I love
Naruto, but God Almighty, some of the people who post on the NarutoFan forums are idiots. The good posts are few and far between, and generally it's not worth slogging through. TFP, on the other hand, offers intelligent discussion of a multitude of topics.
