Anyone remember this Forum before the crash?

Before the dreaded Ironworks crash...nobody came in here, and no posts were moving. Now, in post-crash season, we see this place very much alive.

I was here before. It didn't seem dead, but I think there were just too few people who knew about the site. I like it now because there is definately a lot more circulation now.

I've made it a point to play in the other parts of the forum since the fortnight of darkness. Allows me to meet more people, have different discussions, and enjoy the forums more.

But you do have a valid point, this part is much more active. Probably has something to do with no forum, time to catch up on some reading ...

ALL of which is great news! I remember when Larry and I were the only 2 people posting, and we would take several days to check each other's posts.

I remember Aurican as one of the people who always came here, right from the start as well.

I've popped my head round the door regularly, but haven't posted too often here due to lack of time for reading while I am still at college as well as working full time, it's too much really, but my finals will all be over in a few weeks so I can get back to my usual reading levels.

It's really good to see so many people here. The polls forum is very lively now too.

I've read it off and on since we got to the new board, but hadn't posted all that much. I HAVE been recommending it all over the place and I am reading here whenever I can. sigh... I need to retire from rl work or find an alternative to sleep!

Will see about more book reviews...love to make our Moderator smile...

hmmmm....maybe an Ed Greenwood book...? HAHAHAHAHA... nah, I haven't enough throw-away time!

I posted for the first time on this board this week...
I had pretty much just stuck to the GD and BG2 boards, so I didn't see many others at all.
