For Those Who Died Today... Happy Deathday! - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Thinlómien · 12-21-2014, 08:16 AM

I've been meaning to post on this thread all week -

guess what day it was on Monday?

My 10th deathday!

That's so strange, I mean I definitely remember thinking that my 10th anniversary will be in 2014 and being like "pfft... I will be so old then!" Great.

It does comfort me though that some people are even more decomposed than I am. *lumps lots of belated congrats at Inzil*

Congratulations, Lommy! And thanks for my decomposition wish!

Very happy deathday to Lommy and Inzil, who are both remarkably more decomposed than I am.

I have just noticed that the Downs was restored on my Death Day. How cool is that? 13 years among you clever and handsome sorts. Cheers.

A year ago today, the Barrow-downs had been down for about two days--I know that because it was the very beginning of what would be a four-to-five month hiatus for the site, a hiatus that would leave many of us fearful whether it would come back or not, and the reason I know it started a couple days before Jan. 6th last year was that I was waiting to celebrate my 10 year Death Date, and the site had just gone down. I was peeved that what I thought would be a three or four day outage would be timed just so as to obscure my one decade mark.

Well, it ended up obscuring quite a few Death Dates last year, but, happily, the community rallied together to fund a revival and the Barrow-downs is back. The past eleven years would not have been the same for me without it.
