Hi all, I used to be a regular back in the 90s and left long ago, to go live life. I thought somewhere along the way the forum went dark - maybe it came back? I don't know. Anyway just "re-joined" - probably won't be on much, but maybe if I have time... (and don't have to keep answering these ridiculous challenges in order to post.)
Welcome to Susan's Place. Don't worry, posting will become easer soon enough. The site never really went dark and there is quite a story behind it. If you would like to read about it, when you can see other peoples profiles, look at the first post Susan made on this site. As you will read, most of the feature will unlock at 15 post so I hope you post enough to enjoy the site. If there is anything I can help you with, let me know.

Thanks - I figured the challenge questions would go away eventually.... I looked around a bit for the story of what happened but didn't find it. Maybe I'll run across it later. Cheers!
I guess I shouldn't tease you so I dug the link out

Thanks for the link - what a bummer but back again so that's great!
Welcome back from life! It can get pretty distracting, can't it?
I'll be curious to hear the differences since the '90s, if any. People are people, after all.

I'm sure it could be an entire thread - but offhand I'd say the information age really kicked in to full gear sometime after the original forum times. It seems like many more are coming/being out... The resources are much greater in general. To a degree I think the forum format has lost some participation due to other types of (social) media. I'll have to observe and think about this and comment more later.
That's interesting! And makes sense.
Thanks for answering.

Welcome back. I was here in the 90's and early 2000's (the days of flame wars - LOL) and just came back in November. So what was your screen name back then? Mine would have been some form of what it is now.
