It's too painful for some because it was good time for most and now they are gone... poof... no more... fini. And it's also pointless to try and "bring it back" if a good chunk of the people involved aren't even on the ML or participating anymore. Instead, why don't we start thinking about building the ML back up with the future... not the past. There are tons of new people (or at least to me) and tons of new opportunities for the "new generation" to start up Ranma discussions again and what if's and blatantly off-topic RP crap and whatever else. By constantly chaining ourselves down with the past and sighing over how things used to be, we're stifling any chance for "new growth". Jiminy Christmas people! (yes, I actually say that... bugger off) Let them run wild... I noticed a resurgance of on-topic discussion that seemed to just fizzle out. No need to chastize anyone for bringing up a topic that's been talked about 4 or more times already. With new blood comes new ideas and new views and I welcome that opportunity. BTW - I'm not TRYING to sound like a heartless bastard, it just comes naturally. ;p FriTzsama CoV/EOE/CON/CUTE/CoRR/ChanClub/ etc etc etc... PS - All of those groups above? Old skool... we need some new stuff. Especially since a lot of the old groups' websites aren't even updated anymore. --
