Out of pure boredom, I started to look at the list of members on this forum. I found hundreds of names with at least a hundred posts who apparently do not post here anymore. In fact, there were many names with over a thousand posts who have faded into the mists.

That happens with any forum. People lose interest over time. I have belonged to many forums over the years related to a wide variety of interests. This is the only one I am on now. Scary huh lol

I acutally have been on this forum (and the SU before it) for the better part of ten years.
There is only one other forum that I post on. Yup, it is a Streator forum.

It is too bad that you can't dial back ten years and read the posts of that day. You must be the Lone Survivor. I wonder if the old posts were similar to topics discussed today.

Nah, there are lots of us old SU posters left. The Underground was much more fun......... virtually any topic and very few butthurt whiners. Men were men back then.  |

Yep, and some here who won't identify themselves as old SU posters........ I still haven't figured out why anyone would give a rip if someone else knows who you are, if your position is worth posting, it is worth wearing proudly.......... Not everyone may agree, but that doesn't mean you should be ashamed to stand tall on it. |

There must be some way to resurrect old posts from both this forum and the SU. It might stir up some interest here if those old posts could be recaptured.

I looked at Dave's list, and concluded that he missed some old SU posters who still post here. An angry local businessman, Greekgod, for example, has more than ten thousand posts. He had to have been around back then.

I think Auntie M, you and me and Butch were the very first members here. This place had very few members for the longest time. Had some great conversations and the pictures Butch would post was amazing. |

That is so right. Butch has some great historical pictures of Streator.

In the "old days," did people continually bump up old threads?

No the guy who was the webmaster of this forum is gone. So it is the "Wild West" here for spammers. There is no webmaster anymore.

I love new threads. I detest the spam. So, every now & then, when I'm "here" I have my own little "Spam War".
