Thank you Sedaka, I can't keep up with it either, and thank goodness I can't access it when I am at work or I would not have a job for long. At work, I reward myself by endulging my other passion/obsession AMERICAN POLITICS!

I used to be very much a part of the Dino Aspie Cafe, but now I can't keep up with it, or the whole "InDepth Adult Forum" at all. I am sort of like Lau, that was drowned in the "InDepth Adult Forum" and I think I am washing up on that same far shore.

We were just too good to stay small.

Well, the cafe's still here.
The forum as a whole has
pretty much turned into
what Random Discussion
SHOULD have been all along.

But, given that moderating for
topic / relevance is unacceptable,
THAT forum remained the games
section that it always was - even
after they were split off.

yeah it's all about advertising

think they could collapse the random/roleplaying ect into one

as well as the men/women forums

AFAIK - the Roleplaying was spawned from the
random, in the first place, to get all the games
out of it. Probably wouldn't hurt to collapse
them though.

The women's issues was specifically requested,
to give a place for specific topics. The men's issues
never really took off - and had only been added as
an equity thing.

When I saw title of thread, I thought it meant something totally different. My interpretation was this thread was an invitaion for older aspies to reflect upon & relate a tale from youth, a time of unrepentant indulgence-hence, period of decadence.
Guess that's another one of these "oops, that wasn't literal in the way I thought" occasions.

It is quite interesting, often, the difference between what I expect from a thread title & what the actual issue is. I don't see it as a problem, though - I often end up in something fascinating that I might not have looked at otherwise.

Uhuh. Was thinking about trying to rekindle it, guess I tried, may some more. But as I read this and found it was staying very true to what I have been thinking. Maybe what was, was just another flash in the pan. Never really ment to be the same again. I think that's what I liked about it so much, ever flowing, wandering. Didn't feel trapping. I feel like it is again and maybe that's just the way it's supposed to be. Like jazz nice when it happens, but isn't ment to have that fusion all the time. If it fused everytime, it would just be another trap. How can you really know the flow, if you haven't felt the nonflow.
