*sighs* This is such a nice yet sad and nostalgic thread. Digging up the old memories always makes me miss the old hustle and bustle of AU so much!
I know many of those that could post here are no longer around. Aredhel, I know stops by from time to time. She was my forum mother as Haldir O Lorien. I still remember when she first joined and all these names I know all too well from times past.
I have literally been on AU almost half my life! And good gosh, yes, how things (and how I) have changed.
I do fore sure miss the family tree. That was so much fun! I had conversations pages long just figuring out how everyone was related to me and everyone else. Lol The clubs too... I miss the club activity and contests.
So much... so much to miss. Thankfully the RP has picked up lately so I don't miss that near as much as Inused to!
To Hanasian, yes there was a time (twice actually) where difficult life cercomstances forced me tonleave the forum for a rather long while. I always came back... but sadly the last time I came back I found myself to be too late and most everyone had moved on.
