The cloud under which they left wasn’t exactly warm and embracing as I recall
They hurled a lot of invective this way upon leaving
Some of it the usual GOPe attack on the base but some a lot worse
It’s just urban what culture war types versus red meat culture warriors
Anyone been here a while gets this struggle
It’s always been this
Still is
I get hit with the same invective from precisely the same sort of folks
Someone should write a handbook for newbies about how we got here
I wish them no ill will but lucciane and Jonah and that Giles guy etc
They never understood the real battle and some of them smeared this site strongly to our enemies
Just saying
Hey were all independents
Personally I find luician.com a bit boring
But I go there when FR is down.
White raven is my deep backup.

I think “Trixie” left over Linda Tripp. I was here, but under my own first and middle name and only tried to post one time and got told off because I didn’t close my post. Recall that it was necessary to use the < > to close posts? The previous poster had posted in bold so my post was also in bold because that poster hadn’t closed </b> the bold! LOL.
I recall that illbay or ilbay told me off! That was my first and last post. The year was 1998.
I can’t remember the device I was using at that time, but it wasn’t a computer. I hope someone can name it for me. I’m getting OLD, dammit. I should be able to recall the name of that thing.
I know I finally got a real computer in November, 1999 and I signed up immediately under this screen name primarily because I received an onyx ring in the mail on the same day!
