Ghosts of the past

I remember when wrong Planet was once a hive of activity 24-7.
seems quite dead now
Hundreds of long lost brothers and sisters appearing as ghosts on old archived threads

Most of these types of forums went out of existence years ago. As slow as it's become WP is a rare survivor.

I guess that makes us relics

Welcome to the reliquary

I wonder what has happened to the people who were active on here 20 years ago I mean, what they are doing now, how they are dealing with life For example, I remember well such a guy whose nickname was KBAZ; he had a snake avatar with the caption that said: "beware, assspie" Or Ukenkerl. I also remember Starbuline (her real name was Sophia from what I remember and she was about 16, she was obsessed with Russia) - she commited suicide at some point, it was quite soon after I joined. I remember back then there were many teens on here - people who were like 13, 15, 17... There were even children, too, like EddietheDog who was, I believe 8, when he joined

I had to check out what it is - I didn't know this term in English although I do know, of course, what a reliquary (relikwiarz in my language) is per se

Every time a thread is revived, I see avatars of members who have moved on. It gives me a strange feeling.

I used to treat it a lot like a twitter feed when I was younger, just writing whatever. But I'm not sure what to actually talk about as it stands.

It's a shame it's so inactive now. Activity did pick up for a bit but since the 5-month long disconnection it has lost a bit of its users.

My threads don't get seen much here, if at all, and I never know where's the best place to post them so they'll be seen.
