Being away for six or seven months can leave people slightly curious when, upon returning, they discover a site that looks corporately owned, rather than privately funded. What has happened?

P.S. In fact, I just used the search engine, and it took only 1.25 seconds to find every post I've ever written. Frightful!

Hi iarwain, welcome back!
BW and team did a major upgrade. Check out this (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showthread.php?t=10517) thread for some cool tidbits.

Many thanks, Mark, hopefully I'll adjust to it quickly. :)

I know what you mean, Iarwain, and welcome back! I returned just recently as well, and I found the new look and features quite overwhelming. I'm sure we'll both adjust in time, though! Good to see you!

Welcome back :D

Mine shows only last 500. Curious...

Ditto, HI. Maybe it's just because of the number of posts you have - the search 'assumes' that you won't really need to see them all.
However, that probably means you can't find your first post...in my case, probably best.
Guess who's back.
Back again.
Ok, I'll shut up.
Seriously, you think the site looks corporate? Personally, it took me a while to get used to it, but then it becomes alright. Do you dig the new White Tree icon?

Look who's here....me! :p
It's the third time since I've been on the BD since it's changed, and I'm still going, "Woah...." I think I lost a few hundred of my posts as well.
Oh well, I have the entire summer to adjust, right? :rolleyes:

The incredibly odd thing about change is that only last night I took that turn in the road before taking it again just now.

Either way I'm glad your path brought you here.

I've only been on a few times since the changes took place, and boy does it still confuse me! But the forum looks so supremely cool now! Ah, none of you remember me anyway... Well, I'm back.

:yawns from awakening: I'm alive!
:looks around suspiciously and sees a familiar face: Iarwain! hullo again. it's been months hasn't it?I'm getting used to this environment again.
I've been in seclusion with my teacher Spock. You see it's a long way from here to Vulcan -- and back again...
