I havent been around that much lately but sheesh this place is really dead AND I notice alot of long standing members have dissapeared. I know something most surely must have happened in the P & R Forum but was it that bad that so many have just up and left?

Off the top of my head Petter, one of the most level headed people I have come across online.....gone. Spec is gone, Michal is gone, I dont see papabrody and Im sure there are more that I just cant thnk of at the moment. Did they all just kind of excommunicate themselves because of the P & R Forum being removed? Im not trying to dig up stuff, just would like to know why this place is deader than I have ever seen it in the years I have been here and I think Ive been here for approx. 5 years.

Dont need the gory details, if there indeed are any. ( unless of course you want to pm them to me )
  
Caroline WOULD have to be on vacation now wouldnt she.  

What happened???? :-?  :-/

Don't know for sure but it does seem that some members left because P&R closed. I'm going to zip my lip about it.... because I still cannot comprehend a person leaving because of a forum section closing. I will never understand.

We can be heroes, just for one day.

I've never noticed a decrease in the forums.  Guess I don't pay attention much here.  Isn't there a list of whose here?

I've been missing for a while.  Couldn't get back in after the server move.  Then I got busy at work, etc. etc.  
ecided it was time to check back in.  With Aya's help, I was finally able to rejoin this group.  Hi everyone!

Yes. Check the bottom of the main forum page.

Hello, Mara!  It's good to see you here again!

I haven't been around much over the last few months either - was very  surprised and rather disappointed to find the P & R Forum closed and more especially to discover that Petter (and others) had gone!

Ah well, that's life I guess but I tend to agree with Helen that the forum on the whole appears - at first glance anyway - to be very quiet now!  [smiley=raise_eyebrow.gif]

I'm so delighted you came back.... [big hug]  The server move threw a few of us off too but I bullied Aya into letting me back in....  [smiley=devil_smiley_grintail.gif]  And I must say, good on him for ignoring the petition to keep me out.....

We'll just have to hope those people who left in a huff come to miss us enough to return.  Meanwhile, isn't it hot?

Oh Bazza....

I'm so sorry.  What a terrible time you've been having.  Men are so reserved about announcing these things.  I'm not taken in a bit about you mentioning your car first.  A close friend announced his divorce by saying 'see my new car - she's got the other one'....

My sincere sympathies - no matter how you cut it, it hurts.

Dammit, Sorry to hear that Bazza.










That was a beautiful car.

If it makes you feel any better, the Jags have a relatively bad frequency-of-repair record. That Toyota or Honda will rarely see the auto-repair shop!

Some weeks I can't get enough of a particular forum and then I can go by without visiting it for a month or more.  That's what's happening right now, so I'm technically still here and I visit JA's main page everyday to see what's new, even if I'm not posting.  I've been occupying my evenings with Final Fantasy XII on the PS2, so after a long, busy day and a couple hours of playing, I am ready for sleep!

I heard the Minneapolis Bridge Collapse made national - and even international - news, but for those who don't know what I'm talking about, Yahoo has a news feed site here that contains links to other sites' articles.  The Pioneer Press and Star Tribune are the St. Paul and Minneapolis papers, respectively, if you're looking for local news.

Yes the bridge was all over our news too.  What a shocking thing and so fortunate that so few people died (not so fortunate for those few unlucky ones though).  I expect they'll take a couple of years to decide who to blame.  Now some people are calling for all our bridges to be looked at too.  Let's all have a group panic shall we.
