This old chestnut again.....I really can only speak for myself, however, over the past year it is evident that many other members recognize this, too: Some "members" have multiple profiles. Because they are bored, or just ornery or belligerent, they use all of the profiles to create multiple thumbs-down, or other negative behavior, to create a ruse of there being several, or many, members who "agree" with them. It's as silly as a yellow pocket on a blue apron---my way of dealing with it is to, well, not deal with it--not see it. It is annoying, but there doesn't seem to be anything that can be done about it. So, ignore..........

Interaction on the forum isn't as vibrant as it was 12 years ago. Posters back then were more welcoming and accommodating. Times have changed, and this observation is based on my own experience as a member of this forum a few years back.

Many of my friends, who were once active on this site and in blogs, departed due to those reasons.

We sure were Dani
I've been on and off this site for about 15 years now and pop in and out to make contact with the old timers. Unfortunately some posters on here take exception to the elderly . Makes me wonder how they treat their parents to be honest.

The more diverse the age range, the more enjoyable it is for me. We can learn from various perspectives when people of different ages are involved.

Love it on the blogs when you and Track have banter. Cracks me up as he's such a laugh.

Thank you very much. I wish more women would engage in blogging. The issue sometimes is that, even when you have no bad intentions, comments or actions can be misinterpreted, especially when someone is having a bad day. Unfortunately, you might become their outlet. I honestly dislike it; I'm just here to have fun and don't need other people's toxicity.

Back then, Ali and Tom were among the most active posters on forums. I don't think Ali remembers me because I'm using a different username now, and my appearance has changed.But Tom was once my friend offsite. I just don't know what happened to his social media account.Lavinia, Pastor Ed, Dreamcatcher, etc. - there's one lady from Norway whom I'm not sure you still remember. She used to be very active in blogs. I know her real name, but I forgot her username.

There was a guy called Robert from Malta back in those days who was a hoot . So many lovely people and Jeepers was among my all time favourites and I used to chat off site with him. Loved and still remembered by many.
So many great posters and many I am still in touch with but not on here.

I don't know if he is after me or before me. I was very active at the same time as Non, Maddog, and Simmo. There is an Australian lad who always posts in slang, and only a few people rarely commented on his blog.I see familiar faces here, but I can't say hello to them as I wasn't close to them when I was here.

Do you mean Non Smoker ,he was a great poster and blogger as was Maddog.
This was me back then but even though I've aged I haven't changed that much.

There used to be a disproportionate number of people from Malta on here for a while. Robert being one of the more vocal ones had quite a disturbing breakdown on here before he left. It really was a bit of a madhouse at times back then.

He had health issues sadly.
What was the name of the guy in swimming trunks whose username I think began with an L . He was hilarious.
They were really good old days when people used to stay up all night chatting
