So I guess I'll come back in six months and ask the same thing.
In the meantime, I'll be visiting some other oldie-bookmark, like this one:

Randy knows. oes RANDY even post here anymore?
Randy does post here and he definitely has reasons for not wanting to see "Lenny's" name. I think they're good reasons but I'm definitely not going to discuss them any further.
I forgot my sig.

| Deleted User | But I just want to know! The old posse is long gone now, so if someone just tells me what happened, I'll leave and never come back!
I know that my shtick is just appearing every three months to ask about the posse and/or Lenny, but I'll give it all up. I swear!
I've been visiting for five years, but I'll leave... I swear!

The old forum was really quite grand. It was started in 2000, and Randy pulled the plug on it near the end of 2001. There was Orb, and Harriet, and Lenny, and that guy who wrote the "Teenage Adventure Gamer" column. There were all sorts of other people, but I can't really remember their handles... I'm really bad with handles.
It was very small compared to this one: it had maybe 1/4 as many posts. It wasn't so slick like this one with the corporate representation, and the celeb drop-ins, but it was very cozy.
The end came around October 2001. There was a lot of political debate around that time. One of the administrators banned a group of vocal debaters. He promised to let them back in after submitting a written apology. A poster called "Hanover" wrote that apology, but wasn't allowed back in...
Our greatest moderator and administrator (Orb) quit at that point. And then Lenny got fired.
Just Adventure was one of my favorite sites up until that point.
And then the Just Adventure forum was finished.
It was a very sad affair.
I don't visit much anymore.

What was so special about the old gang? More flaming? More your age? Perhaps, to you the old topics were of more interest?
Please let us know, curosity and really it would nice if you would join us.
It sounds like you were very comfortable with the old forum and by reading the posting in this one, you are not as comfortable.
Are there any posters that you know from the old forum that are posting now?

| Deleted User | I was just being sarcastic. But they were a nice bunch. And I still blame Randy.
You are all pretty nice too. And I still blame Randy.

Okay. I guess you're right. I'll stop by again in June and see how things are.
See you then.

Status : Online | I just thought that everyone would like to know that Clockwise has thankfully moved on and found his long lost friends at their forum and they are all at the moment having a large "I Blame Randy" pity-party.
As for me, I blame Clockwise.
