it was a pretty great time [mostly] back in the day. But I would love the old discussions [and some of the old members] with a few of the newer ones.

First time I got lost in the woods exploring
First time I held my nephew
First time I meet my best friend

Thats just it...u cant have DISCUSSIONS without ppl willing to discuss...this place is stifled...

Oh do tell lol

Most cant handle their obvious bs called out.

Oh man I remember the first (and only) time I was lost in the woods...was 4 and wandered into the logging hills above Harrisonburg...took about 30 hrs to find me

@mrb89: Was that BAND camp? LOL

In all honesty I don't come here to find "the one" anymore. I come here to have intelligent conversation with the few people I consider friends here. The fact that nothing is done about the fakes and trolls is making this a horrible place to be. It's gone to sh.it in just the 360 days I've been here. It's like all Andres is interested in anymore is his precious "premium" money and not taking care of the people.

There is nothing Andres can do to raise the level of discussions, he can't force intelligent-able to write and understand written words-people to participate..alters and trolls are a pain in the hiney sure but they aren't the problem. Closed minds and still fingers are the problem. Personally I think Andres gave us a great format to communicate, better than Reddits even. Too bad it is so misused.

And he cant make people join either...

My best first times all involve my kids and gbabies: ) but I also consider my first time joining a dating site forum (this one) as the best and only : )
