Yeah, I left b.com a long time ago, and I do miss it. I was kind of stunned the other day when, feeling nostalgic, I fired up mIRC and discovered that even the old b.com chat was gone...
I'm on fet, of course, but it's not at all the same. (Although I've observed a few of the same tired old chudwahs managed to migrate over there.) I really missed the participation aspect of the b.com forums -- talking to other real people with real problems that were the same problems I was facing.
A lot of fet feels like a pickup game to me, and it's rough trying to have meaningful conversations in the groups. Maybe the spambots are just getting smarter...
Live, live, live! Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death.
