Alicia Sautereau Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 If you wonder "uh what?", don`t worry :-)After the need to google a specific thing from my past, i ended up reading half of my +3000 posts for the past several hours and just wonderd how many of the old timers are still around.The ones from the ancient past will most likely remember, including the very bad grammer, or the Chaos o.OJust a bad case of nostalgy :-) Off to sleep as some things never change (work).

Peggy Paperdoll Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I guess I quality as an "old timer". This avatar first regestered on the forums in April, 2006. I first joined SL in October, 2005 with another account and that account did not participate in the forums but just lurked. I remember Pie. Once in a while someone shouts "Pie" at the Forum Cartel. But I haven't been there in ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raul Rehnquist Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I guess I could be considered an old timer also. " Waves at Peggy " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenbro Utu Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I've been around a while. I read the old forums, did not post a lot, but I do miss them. There was very lively discussion. It was a real community. I never thought of them as being rowdy, as was their reputation. I cut my social teeth on Usenet. Everything is calm compared to that.

I sooo miss the old forums and agree that it was a community. I joined SL on May 1, 2007 and began reading the forums regularly. I remember Pie, the Forum Cartel, Trout's "s1ut ratings," the Undying Thread, etc. Many of the people who were regulars then are likely on SLU.

Never seemed to happen after the old forums were replaced with the JIVE based ones, then these ones. The old crowd moved on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenbro Utu Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Those forums even gave merchants a place to post new products and events. A lot has changed since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivanova Shostakovich Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I remember you. And I always liked the group tag. I can't say that I participated heavily in the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canoro Philipp Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 i guess im a midbie, i started at the very end of the vb and grow up in jive, i miss also the old regulars, specially since this new forums started, but i came into the conclusion that i respect their decision of how often they want to be here, we dont really know if they have other things in their rl that prevent them for coming, or other factors, but they are welcome here anytime they want to come. i also came into the conclusion that is a natural process that the old will have its ending, but there will always be new regulars, new spirits as passionate as the old regulars were, and we must celebrate that they are here, bringing their new perspectives and wisdom and humor to this forums.

Alicia Sautereau Posted September 10, 2012 Author Share Posted September 10, 2012 From memory, i think it was something like +2300 posts or so in total that we had to manually edit the url to see the posts cause of the forums keep breaking? Wonder if Strife is still facepalming the forums lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
