Why can't we post in it anymore?
Granted, the last time I was here was five years ago...
But I liked welcoming new people to the site and making friends! Feels like I'm talking to the nether now...

The Admins shut the ability to reply off. Can't say with absolute certainty but I think it was because they didn't want to maintain it. Same with the Looking for Naughty Love section. It probably wasn't worth the Mod hours. Shutting off the ability to reply resolved that issue.

The forum is a lot different now than it was last time you were here. And not in a good way. But welcome back :)

I often feel sorry for some of those who post to the Intro forum and Looking for Naughty Love. I'd bet that newbies have no idea why no one acknowledges their posts or answers them.

They didn't even give an announcement or why? Aww. I really liked welcoming people, and when I first joined, it helped me feel like it was "safe" to post on the forums. I guess I understand that, but it's still disappointing.

Also, hello! You probably don't remember me, but it's nice to see a familiar poster again!

Thank you! I'm guessing that not being able to reply to intro posts isn't the only thing that's changed?

I feel really bad about it, too. It makes you feel cut off from the community (or what community there might be left) when you're just screaming into the abyss with no acknowledgment.

Maybe if I lobby for it, they'll turn the feature back on [sm=argue.gif]

By golly, Nelee! I vaguely remember swapping PMs with you.

There've been a lot of changes since you've been gone. One is that there are far fewer mods now, and the forums are bare bones.

I vaguely remember you from my days of lurking. I don't know if we've ever been introduced. But I think you're awesome so far. I hope you stick around so we can all have another quality poster around!

Forums got rough. But some of us still hang around hoping one day they'll return to the former glory.

Not an announcement in the sense of the word. Introductions was becoming something of a mess after a while. It wasn't just us being bad kids at times. There were a lot of people creating sock puppets to harass people, cursing them out on the boards, etc. It was getting harder and harder to control.

They turned it off, then turned it on again for a bit. The situation didn't change, so they shut it off again.

Actually, I do. Hello to you, too.
