In lue of the change on the horizon...... Should we look into developing a new forum site for all of those who have been communing here for so long? I mentioned before that I had belonged to an I-village question/answer forum a few years ago.....and when i-village got wacky....a couple of the members decided to take the venue to a new site and do a forum venue for all of us that had become pals there. It turned out to be a fantastic idea....the site is still alive and kicking....nearly 10 years later! So...I'm dead serious when I say......what about going ahead with our own site.....naming it something non SL related (so we don't get our butt's kicked)....like oh.....forumcartel.com or something.... I can look into it.....I can glean details from the friends I have on the other site and see how they developed it.... and I can take names in-world or in private messages here.....for those who'd like to be involved.  I'm hoping this post doesn't get derailed.....but it would be so sad to lose this with all you guys....it's been so much fun.....and me...the quintessential loner....lol saying this..... but it's true. If you guys are into it....I'll work on making it happen. Namaste

I suggested soemthing liek that earlier but people looked the other way. It's probable that it will happen in world but will also probably be a group click - its just seems its the way its going now. It would be good to meet newbles and freash faces but that takes effort on thepart of the group. I expect that will disband also in the end. For th epeopel who use Resident answers, the allure of SL world itself will soon diminish. SL will ultimately lose us all.

this tendency to open "YET ANOTHER NEW SL FORUM" that a lot of the "regulars" here seem to develop is more disruptive to the forumgoer community than the fact that this forum will be gone soon.
right now I know of two replacement forums by personal experience (slapt and 2nd citizen) and about three or more others that i havent tried yet.

Eh well.....that's why the Forum Cartel exists in world anyway....and it's a great resource as it stands. If I'm logged in...and I need help....I post to the cartel group and usually someone has some sort of answer or advice. I always direct new folks there as well......so in the spirit of offering help to those who seek it out.....I do hope we can remain a cohesive group.  Namaste peeps...... feel free to contact me in-world for whatever....I'm a loner, but I also love helping and I love having new projects to work on......or, ya know, if ya just want to harass someone or get into a heated debate about some taboo topic.... Wait..I have an idea......tomorrow night....Feb/3 (today's my b-day.....gonna be with family tonight) my place in Old New York.....meet & greet and photo op to get some nostalgic pics of all you wonderful crazies! 4pm SL time ok? I'm east coast...that's 7pm for me.....any other suggestions...I'm open to it.
