Especially if you had loads of friends that were close to kin there. However, letting go is definitely something that takes time. If you think of it like an emotional process like a bereavement that can take a year or two to get full 'over' the situation. Especially if this was somewhere you invested a lot of time, life and thought in to. I find it really awkward to make friends - even here, but I try my best and if you ever want to chat or whatever, I am totally up for that.

Things go quiet, become inactive or just vanish because that's the way of things. New social media and forms of social interaction are partly to blame with that. Message Boards aren't as popular because so many people have FaceBook, twitter and crap like that. You cannot go blaming yourself for the rest of the world moving on to new trends to be a part of.

Accept the happy times, the good memories and let it remain that way. You'll wind up flogging a dead horse, as people have said in the Shack, Sonic had it's time to shine, that's gone as people use different social media forms now. Just try to make yourself at home here and make some pals - this place is quiet, but it's loyal people that linger here.

Some things are worth the fight, some things are not. It's very difficult to see (in the short term whilst you're going through it) what is and isn't worth the fight. If you keep in touch with anyone who used to be on SSZ, why not invite them to here? That way it'll be like a home away from home?
