The world has changed in the last two years. People have become far less sociable.

Fully agree with that, also there are far less T2's around and even less Patrols, Rick

It's a hard time for forums in general.. social interaction is changed and it's become faster than a forum. people usually ask questions on facebook (or similar) expecting almost real time answers.
I definitely prefer forums: you have an archive of information and you can browse back in the history, and moreover i developed a lot of virtual frendships (sometimes even became real). |

I’m still kicking around. I agree the pandemic has definitely changed the world we live in but also Facebook too.
Still only us that can keep this place alive I suppose. |

The alleged pandemic has left so many people in a state of free floating anxiety, frustration, aggression and general feeling of 'what's the point'.

Agreed but unfortunately people are still running scarred from something that never really happened, everything was and still is distorted beyond belief and most still are worried about Covid when they should be more concerned about the present state of the government, Puttin and Ukrane, cost of living crisis etc, etc, Rick

Still here too - but I was only ever an occassional partaker.
Saw two other Terranos today in Glos. Got a tentative wave from one. Maybe we need a TV ad. |
