Over the last 10 months or so, multiple people have made similar pushes for everyone to start posting again... Take a look around and you can guess how well they all worked out. This place will go on existing for some time, I'd imagine, but expecting it to ever get even as active as was in 2010 is like hoping Syd will go back to writing an article every couple of months. Places like this aren't forever, people move on, find other places t- wait, didn't I say this already, like, 3 or 4 times so far? How many of these threads are we gonna have? xD

Facebook is the Wal-Mart of websites. It sucks and is totally gay, but it's popular and cheap and everyone's there already, all the while the small time websites with character and charm slowly fade away. Sorry to report the inevitable fate of sydlexia.

Really? People post here way more than on Facebook, which hasn't been posted on in months.

I found that people who make stuff on their own website or on Youtube and try to promote it on Facebook, end up being more popular on their own website and Youtube. If they start making stuff on Facebook and then try to spread out to their own website and Youtube, end up only being popular on Facebook. Facebook has not taken over the internet.

Wal-Mart has a pretty strict anti-homophobia policy, believe it or not.

Well when I say "gay" I don't mean gay like homosexual, I mean it more in the sense of gay like retarded. It's just how we used it growing up. I would never mean it in a derogatory way towards homosexuals, but more along the lines of "hey that's totally stupid or retarded" kind of way.

Same here. I like calling people faggots and retards.

You're a classy and mature individual, DarknessDeku.

Thanks for clarifying that; I feel much better now that I know you were using it in an anti-disability sense instead of an anti-homosexual sense.

And yes, I know I'm just "nitpicking", but that kind of thing really bothers me.

And when I say"retarded" I don't mean retarded like "mentally handicapped", I mean retarded like ....gay.

Yeah these words are simply too fun to say, even though I don't think I've ever used them in the literal sense.

This is such a lighthearted conversation about bundles of sticks and whatnot, but I feel as though it is holding us back from the main point, which is figuring out where everyone has gone. Not that anyone has to take my point into consideration or anything, seeing as how I am such an ultra-gay faggoty retard.

Maybe we can track people down on the Facebook group and invite them back.

I have been mostly on Twitter and playing games. If you ever need me, I'm on Twitter. If you don't have Twitter, get it, because that's where I am.

My current computer is a piece of shit, to the point that doing ANYTHING on it is a labor. It is 11 years old. The fan died 3 weeks ago, and now it can't even run YouTube properly. I can't run IE at all without massive slowdown, and Firefox can't run more than one tab.

But. I ordered a new computer. I should have it this week, hopefully by Wednesday. I can't speak to whether it will revitalize my will to write, but it will certainly revitalize my MEANS of writing. I really want this site to be interesting again. To be a place where there is new content that people come to read and enjoy.

Also, I just renewed the domain for another year. So that's something.
