Desire Avenue

Hehe,no,not what you were thinking re Xmas.

Rather a catalogue of gloom,namely the last dates we heard from various members here before they vanished.
Sometimes I think there's a conspiracy afoot and someone is going around bumping off Stina fans.What was that old movie? 'The List of Adrian Messenger'?
Anyway,here we are:-

What's going on? Do people lose interest in Stina,because there's so little new of interest? or do they get bored of coming to a messageboard where little is happening?
If any of you guys and girls above read this,say Hi!
We miss you! Save the Stina messageboard!

Many people quiet for a long time..

I visit every day, practically. I've just nothing to say, most of the time. I think Stina fans are a pretty diverse bunch... I'll say more in the other thread.

OK I can strike you off my list,red!

No, don't strike me off, just update me to Dec 9, and leave me like that until my next post in 3 months time.

No i am still here, just been working too hard on my own projetcs, sorry...

I'm not qualified to speak on behalf of anyone else of course but ireally do think that the sudden closure of CQD did knock the stuffing out of a lot of people and raelly just sapped their energy and enthusiasm for this forum.

We voluntarily turfed ourselves off the Barbie Board and somehow manged to keep everyone together for CQD despite initial misgivens of several members.
But even if we'd have stayed we would be homeless now anyway.

But in time we managed to create another friendly, enthusiastic community at CQD but the prospect of having to go through all that upheaval again, for a third time, I think was just too much to ask.

maybe she changed her name already again and posted under that one


(i can hardly remember names, so it's very confusing when people have changed it... haha)

A Bluesy post has a certain recognisable piquancy.I think we'd have spotted her new guise.In any case,have there been any new posters in the last two months?

and I really like this forum, too bad it's so quiet.

this is happening to me, i guess. ; (

well i am here on a regular basis to read every thread.. but i've never been that talkative or actively responding (may 11th last time? my god!)
so: still here.. but awfully quiet
so:

HI! EVERYBODY!
and a MERRY XMAS followed by an even BETTER 2007!

Sorry for the longish silence folks - looks like I've missed some serious discussion about the future of the board. I'm a bit confused as to what's happening; is the board closing or continuing?

No I haven't changed my username, Wirbel. As Dave quite rightly points out, even if I did you'd all know it was me anyway. I've been offline again since October, just got back on yesterday with a broadband connection so I'll be around if the board is staying up. I've just started my new round of studying for this year so I'll probably only be popping in when I need a break from the Enlightenment, but hope to find you all still here for the forseeable future.

Yeah, I was gonna say...people go online and offline...it's not really a reliable system in life. I didn't have access to the internet all the times I've disappeared. Other than that I visit everyday as a habit with the Blonde Redhead, Juliana Hatfield and Epoxies boards.

Alot of time I have nothing to say...

I after an artist board changes 3 times or more they lose track and forget also...

advertise advertise advertise. that's what I say.

Welcome back blue!!! and everyone else who has posted in this thread since I started it.There's still several folk MIA...
