It is hard to believe it has been more than 12 years. I met the best friends of my life on this site. Just a note to say how much I have missed you all.
Petya, Null, Titan, Ratty, KT, Ceaseless, Dash, and more. Please forgive my falling away. May joy be with you all.

This is not really related to your post, but I also made some really important friends through another forum. Two years ago that forum crashed and we kept in touch by e-mail. However, the administrator of the correspondence fell ill and contact with him ended. Weird that I can't get over it. They were a haven for me, we trusted each other even though we had never met. I miss them now and every single day.

I even created my own website and forum and I hope at least one of them will find a place.

Thank you for the reply. I hope you are able to reconnect with one or more of them some day. If nothing else, I hope your site and forum can bring joy to somebody.
