What happened to the olden days? not the old board days but the days when people like me could come here everyday? Old members have been dropping like flys lately. JUST WHAT HAS HAPPENED?!?!

Life. People just don't have the time to come around here on a day to day bases any more.

I agree it is sad that not many come around frequently but life does have a habbit of getting in the way.

Sigh, You're right Silent.......... But still, I liked when everyone was on and this place was very popular.

Yeah, there are days my self where I haven't been been able to visit the page, or on occasion not even to get on internet for several days.

I think that's a bit of a lame excuse. No offense to people who are actually stretched for time, but a job and/or school just aren't enough to mean you can't say something every now and again. Or just every now. Or again, I guess. The point is, it's not much of a stop.
The real reason is the whole 'got a life' thing. If you want to spend time with people like your family and friends, that's a pretty good reason not to post, and it really takes up a lot more time than work or school.

I think I miss that time too. Not just because of this forum, but also because that was just plain a great time in my life.

For me school does stop me posting. I stay there during the week and can't get on a computer. And the internet at home wasn't working so I could only get on one hour on saturday (if I was lucky.)

No computers in the school?
And internet problems are a different story. Internet problems can't simply be planned around, like work or school can.

Yes but you're only allowed on them in IT.

How about parental interference for a reason?

'E said "What about parents not letting you use computers. Is that a good reason?"
And then, about now, I said "Yes, but only so far or so often, and it's still not a good reason to leave, just to not be here in the first place."
It's a great reason for a hiatus, though.
