well, heck. i've been out of the country for a week and a half and come back to find this stuff going on.
i have to admit, if i still had my SVTC and if this was still my primary home, i'd be a lot more disappointed. as it is, though, i've transitioned more over to
www.clubrsx.com and only visit here once a day or so, instead of several times a day.
part of my transitioning has been helped along by some of what lance is talking about - the overall tone of the site seems to have regressed a little and lost some of the sincerity and "mickey-mouse-club-ish-ness" that made it so appealing for so long. i've been a member of the CEG since the fall of '98 and have followed some of you folks all the way from the inlink.com SVT forums to the mailing list to the many bulletin board forms that these forums have taken over the years. i don't post that much, but i've enjoyed watching the CEG grow....
without it, i never would've enjoyed my SVTC as much as i did, and i never would've met several of the friends that i have.
but before i break down and start singing kumbaya here, i'll end this by saying thanks to lance and to matt (mmars) for all their efforts. mmars, sorry to hear about your layoff - hope you find new work soon. methinks that's a bit more important than hosting a website.
i'm gonna keep my eyes open for what develops, and i'm still on the mailing list and will remain there just so's i can keep up w/ you folks.
catch ya on the flip side.....and i'm out.
