I know we need to get over it, but, hey, I am grieving here a bit.  I was used to going there multiple times a day....

I thank God I grew up in an age when a kid could still play with things that could put his eye out.

yeah, I still have it in down in the menu but I changed my home page to these a few days ago.
Only in America .....do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.

I know this is going to sound corny.. But grieving and accepting a loss takes time.
 I know i was shocked and hurt by Taldrens sudden closing, And I truly did not realize how much a part of my life it had become, Until it was gone. :'( :'( :'(
 Some times it is just best to remember the past fondly, And move on to a better future. :)

1.  Denial (this isn't happening to me!)
 
2.  Anger (why is this happening to me?)
 
3.  Bargaining (I promise I'll be a better person if...)
 
4.  Depression (I don't care anymore)
 
5.  Acceptance (I'm ready for whatever comes)

or

1.  "No, they won't really close."
2.  "Damn Majesco, damn them to hell for cancelling Black-9!"
3.  "Maybe Taldren-Korea can host the forums"
4.  "Sigh..."
5.  "OK, I guess I'll remove it from the Favorites menu"

To be honest, this forum is feeling like the Taldren boards now.  If I can slip back into denial, maybe I can just imagine that it's a new look and feel to the same forums...

Exactly what DID happen?  I was checking the forums regularly, saw an announcement saying that the forums would be closing for some reason, but to keep checking for more info, then all of a sudden it was gone.

Can you strip away so we may start again?
Tell me, can you heal what father's done?
Or cut this rope and let us run?

I haven't been able to get up what it would take to remove the Taldren forums from my favorites yet. <sigh>

I even still click on it accidently and don't realize it until I get the error notice.  <sigh>

I wanna go home.  <sigh>

To be honest, what matters to me are the people.  This is the best and most diverse group of people I have ever seen.  In some way we have all grown for the better because of what Taldren started.  IMHO that was Taldren's true success story here in the U.S.  Taldren has done its job by bringing us together and allowing us to grow into the community that we have become.  Now it is time for us to stand on our own two feet.  With SFC source code up in the air, D2 and D3 issues we have new challenges to face.  While I look back at the time spent at Taldren with fondness and sadness that it is gone.  I for one look forward to this new beginning and our new home.

Thanks everyone for the happy times,

Matt

I still have Taldren's login page as my home page, and I stubbornly refuse to change it.
