I can answer that one for you. I think I made my first post in early 2000. I think 2000-01 was a "pretty good year" for these boards. Soon thereafter, however, a few individual personalities began to adversely affect the flow by "baiting" others into mindless diatribe. This led to most of "us" (read: Expats) to get booted, because we weren't playing nice. Some of us would do our time, then come back. Others, after several bootings, took the hint that this was not a place of objectivity. There were some "great minds" that no longer post here, who had some great information that was useful to many of us. in essence, they (like eventually me) were chased off out of frustration. Will that "golden age" return? No. Can the current board change? probably not, as the dynamics have morphed. Can the Expats return? Well, some of us have until we get booted again. Let's just say things were more of a community then. I don't "know" any of these people here now, so how can I be of much use? So, I'll just chip in when I think I can make a point, but it will never be the same.
