It is so quiet here...

mloreason — Mon, 19 Sep 2016 12:19:36 GMT

I can't believe how quiet it is here. I remember years ago we predicted that the board would one day have so few members left that it would end up like this. At the time it seemed almost ridiculous.

Anyway, hello to anyone who remembers the good old days. I hope some of you are still around.

Welcome home Silly. (hope I rememberd that correctly). Yes, it's a veritable wasteland here and now.

It's good to see you again, albeit in a rather attenuated and virtual sense. 😉

Actually though, I don't think I ever used that monicker for you at the time; that was something the other Tockers called you. 🙂

I used to say that noone ever really leaves this place. They may only drop in a couple of times a year but there is something that keeps pulling them back. Come out come out wherever you are. 😉

There used to be a lot of friendly and not so friendly banter, the ferals paying a visit of a Friday night and quite provocative topics. I found topics and posts by bob the builder and cat_meow (I think they were) to be quite entertaining.

I'm going to keep my eye on this thread. It may grow to over 10000 posts like tockers or drunkards (can't really remember which one now).

bjackson I found those posters entertaining tio. I'm still working out how to use the board. It has changed a lot since I was last here.

Unless you can PM the old folks and invite them back, I think that's rather unlikely . . and . . . the moderation seems a bit more heavy handed nowadays so less chance of real fun and games.

can't use HTML anymore, but on the upside, you'll not be limited to only 10 posts per day.

We shall see.

I think the poster I miss the most is Taft. I haven't seen her here for such a long time.

I was wondering about the 10 post limit. Thanks for clearing that up.

I very recently returned after a few years away, more because I was curious. I didn't even bother to use my previous ID. What's missing is the fun. But I suspect that is partly due to the rules and monitoring of the board. I haven't heard of one person being suspended - WOW.
