GAFF is gone, forever

[wiseheart]

I don't know whether I should grieve or celebrate. Once upon a time, it used be a fairly funny, snarky forum, but in the last three years or so... utter tripe. So, it's perhaps better that the Site Guru put it out of its misery.

At least it has given me the acquaintance of eye_of_a_cat, so the years spent occasionally visiting it weren't utterly wasted.

I completely missed the opportunity to check it out, because when I finally got on the site, the forums were out of order and would not accept new subscribers, and afterwards I kind of lost it out of my sight. So, I only ever heard about it.

Maybe it is for the better. But the new place to snark at stories seem to be some selected communities at live journal, anyway.

BTW, HUGS to you! Long time no see (which is my fault, I fear, as I have been rarely on here lately).

I belonged to it almost from the beginning when it was a small thing with only a few hundred members and a couple of dozen regular posters. I went back about a year or so ago after being gone for a couple of years and I couldn't find any of the old names I was used to chatting with so I figured it was done for me forever at that point.

It's sad to see it go...it was so much better when it was a core group of posters instead of the massive and sad thing is grew into.

Hard to believe it's gone. For a while, it was such an internet staple. Why did the Site Guru decide to shut it down?
