Not sure if we can recreate the magic we had back then but I certainly want to try. Please let me know what did you love most about this place? Is there anything in particular you'd like to see to make SD appealing again? Totally open for ideas.

I loved the community, getting to know all if the users and seeing the new work people came up with. I don't know if we can create the same magic we had back in the day but maybe we can try! I look forward to starting up my writing once again.

I'm kind of kicking myself because I didn't think to come back to SD at the beginning of this pandemic where everyone was forced to stop in their tracks. Then again, I know life was a bit crazy for me as all of the uncertainty hit back in March. Anyway, I totally agree I'm looking forward to reengaging with all of the other members and seeing everyone's new writing and artwork.

I think the best part of SD was always the community. I know a lot of people from the boards have moved on at this point, but we sort of grew up together (even though our ages were pretty spread apart). Coming back now is kind of like a high school/college reunion with all my art club, drama nerd friends.  |

Coming back now is kind of like a high school/college reunion with all my art club, drama nerd friends. Absolutely! I loved that comparison to high school reunion with art or drama club. That's an awesome comparison! I definitely miss the original crew but I am definitely open to establishing that kind of community again. How wonderful it would be to see others check in throughout the week to see what each other is up to... kind of like going out to lunch or dinner with a group of friends and catch up and have great conversations as a break from the 'real world'. |

What I like about this forum is that the admin. & mod are invested. They show up at least once or twice in a 24 hour period. I realize that some admins are busy and can't do that. But it is nice to see that the powers that be are into their forums.
I just deleted my account on a forum as it had only 3 visitors in 24 hours. It was the same the day before. None of them were staff, if they don't care then why should I?

I totally agree with you - if I don't take the time to login and be active on my forum, why should I expect members to? There are so many distractions out there Facebook, news, etc but my goal is to provide a community where artists and writers can feel like they belong and their work are appreciated it and hopefully in time be so close to each other that it feels like being part of a family. |

The acknowledgement is nice, but I agree with Sharon. If we’re not invested, we certainly can’t expect anyone else to be. Thanks for being here. Can’t wait to see more and more activity from you 😁

Sorry, wasn't sure where to post suggestions/questions so just going to add it here @sharon. We seem to have two forums for Movies in the Entertainment section. Is one meant to be for TV shows?

Thanks for pointing this out. It was meant to be a sub-board in the Movies section for movie reviews. I've fixed it now. |
