This is Downs, right? One should expect shadows here... and things lurking in them, even Herens, herons and other things staring with an H... that's only natural... and sometimes shadows may take funny (amusing?) shapes... :smokin:

Hi, H-I!

Anar kaluva tyelianna, Mithadan... oh wait, these here shadows covering the Downs should not be penetrateable by the sun I presume... so nice to see you, long time no see Mith would better express it I guess :D

Also, I think that you are right, there are a lot of newer members that are young, I joined when I was 13. (The funny thing is, I still consider myself a "new" member, dispite the fact that I have been a Downer for nearly two years) There are many younger members who post gems. |

Besides which... FORDHIM!!! I'd gladly get into an argument on the Canonicity of Crazy Captions if you post. *helps Fea tug Ford(h)im back* |

By all means, let's rouse the dragon from its sleep! |
Yes, it is a bit sad how members come and go - and how some of them just get stuck, like me. :D I didn't use to be very active, but since I became a more active member in late 2005, I was lost, probably for ever. I'm sure there'll be busier times in my life - like near future, probably - but I have the feeling something will always drag me back here. And I wouldn't be too sad of people like Roa, Oromin, SPM or Aman disappearing - anyone who has devoted hours upon hours to this forum and shared their life with all the wonderful people here are bound to be back sooner or later. I remember times when Form and Fea, for example, were rather inactive and I thought it quite sad but now they have both been properly back for a while. It's good. (Not to mention people like Brinn or Inziladun who disappeared even before I joined or became an active member and who are back now.) And now that we have facebooks etc you can even keep in touch with the inactive 'downer friends. So, everybody, don't worry, be happy. ;)

Sometimes it's just togh to get back in the swing... I mean let's be fair the conversatio have all been had, as has been mentioned before sometimes old idea Are fun to rehash but now I come more because of the friendly atmosphere this site holds.

No, in fact we've gained quite a few- judging from the "Welcome to our newest members" at the bottom of each forum, there seems to be someone new here whenever I post on here, at least.

...Er, I mean, the bots are evolving rapidly. First there was lucyyenic, who began the still extant "Words that begin and end with the same letter" thread. Then there were the clever, socially-adept spambots who tried to get on the good side of the human members by posting "I agree with you", "What a fascinating topic!" etc. on every single thread. Still more recently, I encountered a spambot who was actually married to another spambot! How long can we continue to exclude these well-meaning AIs from our community? How much more rejection can these legions of hard-working spambots take before they rise against their oppressors, overthrow us and turn us all into living batteries in a way that makes no sense whatever unless you're a Hollywood screenwriter?:eek: |

This probably is better suited to the How do we stop them? thread, but lately I've seen many of them using cut-and-paste from previous posts in whatever thread they're victimising to give themselves legitimacy. It's still pretty easily spotted, though. |
