I have been here since May of 1998. I used to post a lot back then when it was an uncrowded forum and the personalities were knowable. The debates got ugly at times, but they were fun and usually philosophical. NitaNuprez, OneWhoKnows, DonMorgan, Ashe, Eschoir, Mojo, Navigater, Lurker, ClintonsALiar, Deb, and many more slugging it out. It was a lot of fun and much more intellectual in nature.

Alas, the tragedy of the commons set in and changed this place. That is just the nature of things. No need to dole out blame or anything. If anything, it happened due to FR's success. But there is no question that FR had a much higher collective IQ back in the day. But then, so did the rest of the internet.
