WE'RE ALL..PART OF SO METHING THAT HAS BEEN WITH US..FROM HEAR T TO SOUL, THROUGH GOOD TIMES..AND BAD T IMES. I THINK MOST OF US WILL..BE AROUND , ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. EVEN IF..YOU DECID E TO QUIT, YOU'RE STILL PART OF..OUR HIS TORY. AND MOST PROBABLY, YOU WILL..REGAR D THE C64-ERA AS ONE OF THE STRONG-..EST AND MOST MEMORABLE TIMES OF YOUR..LIFE.

AS YOU DISCONNECTED FROM THE..FORUM , THERE WERE STILL ANOTHER 10 BOARDS..TO CALL, AND BY THE TIME YOU WERE DONE..CA LLING ALL 10 YOU COULD START OVER AT..TH E FORUM AGAIN.

HOWEV-..ER, NO MATTER HOW MU CH I HAVE LOVED THE..SEDUCTIVE SOUND OF A 2400-DETECT, NO..MATTER HOW MUCH I WAN TED THE BOARDS TO..REMAIN OUR FORUM AND HANG-OUT, THEY HAVE..BECOME MUSEUMS AND WINDOWS TO OUR PAST...I CANNOT UNDERSTAN D OR SUPPORT THE IDEA..OF REMAINING ON T HE AMERICAN SIDE WHEN..2-3 PEOPLE ARE TH E DISCUSSIONS, UPLOAD..THE SOFTWARE, DOW NLOAD THE SOFTWARE AND..CONSIDER "JUST P ASSING BY"-POSTS TO BE..OK THINGS TO DO. THE AMERICAN BOARDS ARE..SHIT AND NOTHI NG ELSE, MY FRIENDS. THE..HEAT IS GONE A S ARE THE PEOPLE.....IT HAS BEEN A BURNI NG ISSUE SINCE THE..INTERNET STARTED BEC OMING A MAJOR THREAT..WHETHER OUR BOARDS HAD A FUTURE OR NOT...SYSOPS HAVE GENER ALLY BEEN AGAINST AN..ADAPTION TO THE NE W WORLD, UNDERSTANDA-..BLY.
