I was thinking about how wonderful it is this site still exists, and how it's essentially kind of like a laid back online "Cheers"(tho everyone doesnt know your name!) But now and then I kind of feel nostalgic and miss the 1998-2002 period.
Kind of curious whatever happened to a lot of people. Did anyone end up working professionally in the industry? Or get to intern with Muppet related stuff?
I feel very glad to see longtime posters who were absent for so long come back(like DWMckim, who I've always considered the wisest Muppet fan on the planet, and one of my favorite posters)
It's good to see people who have always been on and can be counted on for great posts.
But whatever happened to all the old posters? Not even necessarily purely from the 98-02 Delphi boards, but just in general? Hearing someone referencing "Muffins" reminded me of the posters known as "Emma" and "Jackie".
I also remember a number of other people though my memory of their exact name is failing me. But I met a lot of them at Muppetfest, and I remember a ton of people from way back when. There were a few Sarah's over the years who were regular posters. I remember this really knowlegable kid from the Netherlands named "Jogchem".
In some way its almost like family, though ya only get to know people through silly little names(Im Cory by the way) I still regret
the late 2002 rift that happened, and that whole ugly fallout.
But I'm excited to see the massive surge of new people who will no doubt be joining this year and discovering(or rediscovering) this forum.
But does anyone have an update on what happened to some of the more memorable posters, or anyone have fond memories of posters we don't see around here? Im guessing a lot got married and or are bringing a whole new generation into this world.
I hope noone passed away though
