Default So where have you been?

Well, I guess as you may remember, the last time I was here regularly, I decided to go down in flames. I was actually trying to make a point that there wasn't a lot of kindness on this forum. Still, I have to admit, I miss you guts and I have been lurking off and on, particularly out of curiosity as to what was happening to OH (who, I think may be lurking too by the way).

Anyway, a lot has happened since I left here. I went back to the writers forum after Trollheart had joined and we tried to start a music forum over there. Needless to say, it failed and I left not long after Trollheart did.

And, you want to talk about going down in flames? Well, they changed servers at WF and the powers that be decided they wanted to push out the retired staff members more or less reducing us to regular status in their own way. Quite a few of us felt rather insulted to be honest but one thing they did with the new server was give the member the ability to delete his account (kind of like how you guys can disable an account except that now the member can do it himself.) So, I deleted mine, that will show them


Anyway, after lurking now and then I've come to realize that most of us are here because maybe they're a little lonely and just need to have some friends to talk too, even if they are virtual.

So, I may pop in from time to time. I won't be as active as I once was as I have other things going, but I still have an appreciation for music, and I love that Marie Monday (who I haven't really met but have seen some of her posts) shares some of my musical tastes.

Anyway, hi, and maybe I'll hang out once in a while.

Hi rubber soul, I don't know anything about you, who are you, where do you come from, where are you going, what music do you listen to?

Is that a sly reference to the famous Gauguin painting?



Anyway, the short answer is "Rubber Soul is one of MB's good guys."

Good to hear from you again, RS. I'm sorry that your adventures on WF ended on a bad note. At least you will always have at least one fan here. Welcome back.

That's funny, because I think I remember you. You're from Croatia, right? If not, then maybe I have you confused with someone else.

Anyway, my handle should be a clue as to who my favorite band is. I'm very much into sixties in general as well as punk/new wave, folk, blues, etc. Along with the Beatles, I'm a big fan of REM, Bowie, the Kinks, and the Byrds among others

Well, I left a little more quietly there. I don't even know if they know what I did.

Anyway, I think I understand the people here a little more than I did before and I'll try not to take things as personally as I did before.

Hey, with you, me, Trolls, and maybe one or two others, we could have something of an old school club since we lived a lot of some of the older music that's popular here.

Glad to be back.
