Yes, at the same time, things are unravelling fast. Incredible what comes out in the last moments of the message boards.
Some things are so unexpected. I don't mean the sister-brother act. I'm not a prig but this kind of thing is so taboo I just cannot help the feeling of distaste . Although a wag did say that incest is nothing more than just Monopoly - a game the whole family can play.

The imminent closure of the boards to my mind marks the end of an era at IYT. There was both creation and destruction aplenty, comradeship and enmity forged, big and small battles fought and won or lost. It was an amazing thing for me as a newcomer to experience a place so teeming with life and activity.
The general opinion is that the situation had ballooned out of control, with people banned left and right; and in the days leading to Pat Chu's fateful decision, it was clear the system had to change or die.
What will replace it? I wouldn't know but I feel it would take an engaged deep thinking on the part of the owners to set the path for the future, a path that pays attention to the infrastructure, that will work to ensure the bridges don't collapse, and that healthy growth isn't curtailed. Then perhaps the future becomes all that it can be.
Still, feelings of nostalgia and sadness are hard to shake off. Those racy crazy heady days and nights of IYT life had meant so much and had exerted such an influence, even for me, a newbie. I can only imagine the impact for the long-time residents. Ah well, goodbye American Pie ..
"Bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin', this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die..." Don McLean

Kersi, good to see you got on the Jinx Site bus. Are you the kid in the middle of the bus with the red and yellow stripe shirt? LOL!

Hello Peachy, sunshine follows you, as always :-) Except when, as you yourself put it, thunderclouds gather and lightning strikes. But this is, so far, good weather country.
Hi broke, hope you have a good time here like the rest of us.
