I joined this site in '08, mainly to meet a date, but...then I discovered the forums. I was unemployed at the time, so I spent most of my free time here. It was GREAT because there was always so much activity & life.

Well...I eventually met someone (here in the forums oddly enough) who turned out to be the jealous type, so she made me deactivate my profile.

So...here I am 3 yrs later...and it just isn't the same. I mean I see a few familiar faces here & there, but it seems dead most of the time.

What happened?

It has changed , I also joined a few years back. I come and go too. I deleted my account for awhile because I started getting a ton of adds from other sites. They were annoying to the pointe that I was'nt even looggin on anymore. Thats seems to have stopped. I sort of like it again.

I've been on mingle almost a whole year, it's always been awesome. Maybe you've just out grown it.

You get what you give.
Apparently you stopped.
Others have come and gone.
It is a fluid situation.

I wouldn't worry about it. Forums have a way of growing up like anything else.

Hi Dawnette! I vaguely remember you from the movie forums. Luckily, I have not received any spam. Yet. My vacation ends tomorrow night, so I'll be kinda busy with work & won't have as much time on here anyway.

Things change. People change. It's much slower, but with much less drama. If you want the forums to be more active, start posting more threads to get people to contribute.

It happens in all the forums I frequent....I think there's a conspiracy.

on an off myself for a few years

Some changes are for the better, like not a lot of drama

However, I have noticed its a bit more "international":wink:

In any case, I have to agree, it's all in what you put into it
