I Say Goodbye with a little lump in my throat

[HNT]

Well, I guess it is about time for me to give up hope that anything here can be salvaged or that we can continue to have a board worth posting on. Today, as I realized that it just didn't make sense to keep coming back here and hope for something new, I looked through some of the old threads and read some of the posts made by people whom I really enjoyed talking to and will miss very much. Certainly, Jen, GL, CK, Canetoad, GP, and Conan were some of the first folks I talked to here and a few of those who tried to stick it out to the bitter end.

In addition, though, I relived talking politics with Inf3ct, Kevin, 42ndStreet, Bonedaddy, and others.

I looked at the always upbeat posts from Jen and Speedy in the Just Wanna Chat section.

I looked at some informative posts from TommyJarvis about F13 and some silly posts from Kevin about Halloween.

In short, this was a really rare place for a while, where we all loved horror films and discussed them together in a respectful and informative manner. Jaysif really created something nice here, and Phantom kept it going for a good while. In any case, I wanted to just say goodbye to all of you. It was my privilege to speak with you and to know you. Thanks for being a small part of my life for the past few years. If any of you read this, know that I wish you all well and maybe I'll even see you again discussing horror films or something similar somewhere else down the line.

RIP HMaM

This is terrible, but I guess its finally done. I was hoping maybe we would come back from this somehow, but I don't suppose that is possible.
So I suppose this is my last post here. Goodbye all. It was great while is lasted. I will miss you guys, I wish though that you would stay in touch. I know some of you are on Facebook. But HNT, you I will miss and I don't have a way of keeping in touch with you.

So for those of you that aren't on Facebook, or at another board I post at, my email is [e-mail] and I also have a MSN address (and messenger) [e-mail]

feel free to send me a message.

Goodbye HMaM. Hopefully this isn't goodbye to the members, to my friends, that made this place so great though.

WOw, I feel guilty for staying away so long. I truly believed there would always be an am to return to when I finally got the time to. So,
my regrets and if anybody else wants to give it another go after this 6 month hiatus, you can officially count me in as a returning staffer. I'll be checking back.....

Thanks man

I didn't realized anybody noticed anything I did here once Jaysif left. Well hey there's always a home for you at the still active CLAD. If you ever wanna talk horror again with regular members feel free to stop by.

;D ;D ;D

Hello, Hello!!! I don't know why you say goodbye when I say hello!

Basically on July 23 I got an iPhone
and logged in and saw this place was dead. I suggested another go, Jen had been logging in and agreed. One month later , it's spiraled into this! Didn't think it could recover this quickly. Jen, GL, and phantom answered my call To action and the four of us resurrected it together.

Well, CT deserves all the credit for the turn-around, it was his idea to start us back up and I bestow all honors for that on him.

I've been away for quite some time. RL has given me some a run for my money. I remember this place fondly, still have it bookmarked and all of the cool folks here.

I'm glad to see there is some life left here and hope to pop in more often.

Best of luck to you, HNT. I remember your articulate posts and wry sense of humor.

[HNT]

Well, its all good. I'm back brother, and its good to see you here, too

Also, I think it might be a good idea for the admins to lock this thread now. It was from a different time, and now that we are in the process of a revival, a thread showing up near the top and saying that nobody posts here isn't going to encourage new members

[CT]

Yeah, good idea HNT
