Im biased (old net) but it feels like the direction the net is taking. ISPs are dropping things like IRC and NewsGroups. Users can find web forums easier than the other alternatives.

-- It used to be "cant see the forest for the trees"
now it could be "cant see the internet for the WWW"

I suppose I might as well chip in and add my "I followed Mike over (and then got involved in TWE testing)" to the chorus.

Though in all fairness, it was SEIV that lured me out of lurking.

I migrated here from the old SEIV Forum back in Oct/Nov 2000. This seemed like the place to be as it was the offical site for the game I was interested in.

A member by the name of Flipper recommended the forum so I came.

Word of mouth, well manored forums, nice people, mods, good game support, and shrapnels commitment to keep the forums open has brought many new members to the forum while keeping the old members coming back.

SE Fan 'eh?
Ever thought about checkin out Legacies?
Solar-Outpost.com/legacies

Myself and a few old school well known and probably by now considered to be old dude SE fans set that up after the fall of se.org, were doin quite well, everyones well active, I'm happy cause I got plenty of crazy people to play with, and we have a damn good time IC as well (most of the time ). Check it out some time if you get bored, we welcome new people to joke around with, and believe it or not we do offer serious discussion - those sections are strongly enforced, we keep odd behavior such as sheep sex to certain areas

We'll keep the serious SE fanatic happy, as well as the insane, BWAAAAAAAAA!! IM ONE OF THE INSANE!!! IM AN AIRPLANE! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

Whered' my bullets get off to?!

You know General, I had no idea about your web page until just now. I feel horrible for not knowing.
