I find it amusing when young people start to talk like old men on their virtual back porches It's a natural thing in small community forums after a while (people go on, lives and habits change, etc), but do keep in mind that today is tomorrows yesterday, so enjoy every minute of it

Well said, but I'll try to say it better yet
Yesterday was today that died long ago, tomorrow will be a today one day yet. If we stay too much in yesterday or the yet to come future, we'll miss the today. But today is the most interesting time

Ponder about this:

When you want to move forwards, looking straight behind the whole time will get you flat on your face.

Only on an abandonware forum can people fill up 8 pages in two days reminiscing about the past. I suppose it's good though. The essence of AB is shining through right now. Anyways, the best way to focus on forum activity is to make people have a reason to want to discuss something. I downloaded over 50 games and visited the site maybe a year before I made my first account. Perhaps if we deliberately messed up games it would force people to post in the troubleshooting section?

Holy Molly! I could talk for ages about Abandonia's past. Back then, I absolutely loved it. With Indignus IV's and Game_****'s ranting rages, also I made and extinguished a few flame wars... hence the title

Do you remember the weekly avatar theme poll? That was awesome, I still remember the StarCraft one, I loved it

Also, the Forum novels we started, where the next poster had to continue the story, boy... the memories... I still remember we had Area 51, Capn. Kirk and, Spaceships and a cave in there, somehow...

I remember making friends with Seb, he was my one and only friend on the board back then, I was still a newbie though, but he was nice to me. That's how I stuck here. BeefOnTheBone, Evad, Win98, Tulac, Fawfulhasfury....

...damn... I miss Abandonia...
