Poll question: Time to pack it in around here?
Edited on Sat Sep-15-12 12:46 AM by Divine Discontent
I can't see replies in "my DU". On the 'discuss' page I don't see new threads, and have to come to the GD page to see new ones, and it just seems like the 'level 2' they have us on doesn't make sense... does it to you? (and yes, I meant to say, the polls don't work as NYC_SKP was saying the other day and we get the error warning when we reply and have to hit back on the browser)


If it's the last days, just tell us, guys, don't just keep turning up the temp on the water. Let us know so we can say proper goodbyes.
Thanks!

1. DU3 is on limited service right now too...
So, I don't think it is just us. GD is the only forum I use, so I wasn't aware of the other problems.

They will have to pack it in for me. I'm here (infrequently, of late) til the bittersweet end.
Have an excellent weekend, DD! :pals:

3. I think you should do whatever you want.

And, you can say goodbye and then keep posting.

I did! (insert smiling smilie here--the smilies are not working, either)

Doing tribute threads was also my way of saying good-bye to each DUer, just in case we got shut off suddenly. But, I stopped because I had to keep kicking the last two or three in the hopes that the person would see them.

So, if you want to move on, DD, go ahead. And if you want to say goodbye and post again anyway, go ahead. Or, if you want to post in both versions of DU, go ahead. No matter what you do, we love you and wish you well.

5. just when you think you're out they pull you back in
I enjoyed pulling you back! you're too good to not do that to! haha

yeah, I might be heading on. I might not. all I know is the site's functionality even before this past week was getting upsetting.

I wish everyone who posts here regularly, nothing but the best - we are family!

4. Just so you guys know...
Once the lights go out here, I'll be looking for you online. So, you best keep the same handles, or I'll have to do some ankle kickin'.

Can't raise either leg high enough to kick arse these days.

Or, as Mick Jagger put it...What a Drag It Is Getting Old. ;)

6. right on! and you've given me a new song to listen to! I don't know that one :)
I'm a 70s kid, and wasn't huge on the stones. I liked a couple of the big hits, and One Hit to the Body, but don't know this one. I like it! :)

yeah, we'll search for each other wherever for sure wherever we go to! not sure just yet.

11. Oh, please...
I can still remember the lyrics 40+ years later.

But, I can't remember what my husband told me 10 minutes ago. Makes me sad. :(

12. My memory isn't what it used to be.
Hopefully if I have enough booze this evening it will help. NOT!

14. I wish I knew where Koko went.
I probably will not use the same screen name. However, if I ever see "Contrary1" (or any other DU2 name, I will find a way to let you know "le poster c'est moi."

Ankle kicking. LOL. Good one.

It would be nice to stay physically young while learning all we learn as birthdays pass.

But "older" is a calendar issue and "old" is a state of mind. I prefer "older," And both are better than the alternative.

"Stay thirsty, my friends."

17. I can't be bothered to visit FU3 anymore.
I come by here to check for new posts and have become nomadic between a few other sites.
