I can't think of anyone in this virtual world that I miss. I enjoy watching the banter but also got sick of the slagging and nastiness that I had witnessed in the last 7-9 months. My posting dropped off as a direct result.
that said.. welcome back De-sade. It is genuinely good to see you.
splendid
Dont think I miss anyone who's gone but there are people who are still members that I see be it virtually or IRL far too seldom.
just make sure you have our msn old friend, good to see you, always knew where the pm button was, just a little concerned you had forgot the site and hope
someone would nudge you to your mailbox
Hiya De_sade.... nice to see you :smile: Hope all is good and life is treating you well?
I, myself always give myself a break away every now and then, for all types of reasons...some planned, some not!!! :smile:
I just turn up again when I'm ready and quietly slip back into the fold... no drum roll, can't be bothered with that, its not important for me nor do I have the ego for it.
Members come and go, always good to see new and old faces back in whatever guise... :smile:
Not sure I actually miss anything... maybe some posters who had a *way* of making me giggle out loud unexpectedly without realising how amazingly witty and funny they were being. They have been some memorable threads/posts and they will be more!
I do think they are some new posters/members to the forum though that have some of the same qualities, given the chance... :smile:
Surely though, its the contribution thats made to a forum from anyone that makes a site work, not the size or quality to a post thats important? For some....making that initial first post is quite a daunting first step.
Yes, there is forum ettiquete... maybe we should be a little more helpful to those that are new?
xanaisx
it may be true that forums are not as lively as they used to be... but I honestly think that is due to the popularity of the chat rooms now. When the site was first sold like many others I was concerned and worried. however I have to say the site quickly settled and now I honestly feel is a better place than before.
Sure there are old memebrs that i miss not being around... but hell..sme bloody great new members as well.
Happy Birthday St3v3,thanks for helping my friends out tonight (you know who they are) (regulars)
And thank you for your prompt replies!
Trapper!!
