May be back?

[anoni]

I'm Anoni! For those who don't know I have a lot of history with this forum, I joined back in like 2010, became a member of staff, became an Admin, and was involved in a lot of the forums history, but then as the forum died down, as my life got a bit more hectic and as things moved to Discord I eventually became less active and quit the staff.

But life's less hectic now and I kinda miss the forum, I know it's not what it used to be, and I know it's not as active as it used to be. But the only way to make it active, is to be active, so maybe that's what I'll do. Even if there's only a few posts per day, I'll respond, keep things lively. Maybe.

This is a spur of the moment decision, but I want to, I want to meet new friends online, the forum might be the perfect place for it.

Welcome back, Anoni! I was a lurker during most of this time, so you might not remember me. But I do remember you! It would be wonderful to see you around, lovely to have you back 

[Firox]

That will be amazing, hopefully more replies will encourage others to come back more often.
I still remember your username at least,  we might have replied to similar topics that are long ago closed.  Good to see some familiar names around.
Even if we only remember the names, along the way we will get to know the user a lot more.

Hi Anoni!

I’m fairly new here so you won’t know me, but wanted to say welcome back 

Always nice to see some different faces around here 

[anoni]

Zara: yeah! Unfortunately I don't remember you, but it would be really nice to change that. So looking forward to getting to know you over time!

Firox: Yesss absolutely, I'm gonna try my hardest to try and bring life back into the community, my first big mission is to get all those threads unlocked but it's a bit harder than I expected to do so, still, I'm gonna try.

I don't forsee the forum getting much traction, but if we can hold onto the little traction we're getting, then over time, gradually, the forum will start to get active. And the best way to hold traction is to be active ourselves.

Ves: Nice to meet you Ves! Looking forward to getting to know you!

Hey Anoni  I see you survived the busy christmas time and are still around!

The Forums must've been a totally different beast while you were admin; so many topics and members. I wonder what kind of stories came from it.

I too joined because I missed forum life. The forums I "grew up" in are long gone sadly, but I hope to bring some life into this place too!

There was a lot of cool stories, both as a member and as an admin.

I remember my thousandth post was an ode to all the times the good things of the forum, it's... here:  http://www.thefurryforum.com/forums/index.php?topic=20265.0

The forum was much more active than it was, an had a very active moderator community. There were dramas, and people who didn't like me even started calling me "Iron Fist Anoni" xD but it was a good time, and I'm just glad the forum is still alive.

Woah  That's some dedication Anoni! Thanks for sharing  I sadly don't know any of the people you mentioned in the poem, but it's heartwarming to have a glimpse into what this forum once meant to quite a lot of people.

  Oh my, a Legend was born  Let's hope we can keep it alive. I mean, Forums seem to be with reddit and discord a part of a the past, but I still do prefer them over those.

Firox was a huge part of this Forum when I joined. I hope he's alright. He used to post almost daily when I first joined. Ves also welcomed me wholeheartedly

Yeah unfortunately almost no one in that post is active on the forum anymore, but I still keep in touch with a few of them even to this day!

Yeah, forums have started to die, and I think it sucks, there's something really nice about forums that discord and stuff just doesn't capture.
