glad it's back

I guess writingforums.org lost their moment in the sun. They seemed fairly pleased about the crash.

Well I found one that was much busier and had a lot more posts than this one. Something like 14000 members. (I signed up there because I was going through forum withdrawal). This one is great though so here I am.

Thank god it is back!

I am glad that this site is back up. I really like the people here and it is an addiction. I must have clicked on my favorites fifty times a day just to see if it was back up.

When I saw that first glimmer of green today I actually got excited!

Speaking of crappy writing sites, did anyone here try using www.writing.com?

My god, that site is the most confussing and convoluted "message board" I've ever witnessed.
Yeah,

script based forums should be abolished, I can stare at them all day and not make a ick of sense outta 'em.

Well I for one am glad it's back.

Can I take this opportunity to thank the unseen people who probably worked hard behind the scenes to get it up and running again. That's a big cheers to you. Thank you, I can start breathing again!

writing.com may be difficult, but I do stick all my stuff in a locked portfolio over there before posting in here. It's a nice off-site backup that also provides copyright protection; so they claim.

Cornish Maid, you're a site for sore eyes.

I thought it was gone. At first I thought it was my computer,then on my other writing forum the admin said that WF was gone. But for some strange reason, I kept checking it. lol.

Well I am thankful that WF came back. I ended up checkign out WF.org and well I can say that they are a terrible site. I would donate money, but I have none.

I was having a heart attack when I couldn't get on. "Nooo!" I screamed.

Many thanks to the admins and whoever was responsible for getting this place back on it's feet!

Surely I'm not the only one who remembers this happening before? (around, six months back?) Since it had happened before I just checked back daily, patiently awaiting it's return.

Oh happy day!
