I guess it wouldn't make a big difference since all the threads are still there, but it could have some nostalgia value for those randomly stopping by? True, and that was our reasoning all along as well, just need to get Michael on it, whenever he finds the time. I'll give him a poke on Facebook one of these days. Though our traffic here ain't what it used to be. Only visitors now are 90% bots. All links older than, maybe 2012-ish, that we had out there, don't re-direct here anymore. Not even the links from Joker's sites. But it'd be the right thing to do. For some. Eventually. It would be nice to see this place in its former glory. I wish I could be as active as I once once or at least more active but it is a bit hard with my work and other things going on.

God i miss being 18... It's still a habit for me to check in here whenever able, and I'd love to see this place active again. But we did have this conversation many years ago too, and it'll just take a fuck ton of work to make it happen. It's honestly very unlikely to ever get activety back here like it was. Our domains and themes, advertising etc. are still tied to a pretty dead franchise. I ain't sure what else to do. The forum will be here forever, or until Proboards goes bust, and until then so will i. EDIT: If y'all want, I could clear the entire perma-ban list, see if Tommy, Adan or whoever might return? That'd boost the drama/activity.

Hey double postin' 'cause I can! Remember when that was a hard rule? Sittin' here thinking about it, It's honestly a bit funny that Frost and me, are still here, having been here among the very longest, and yet, I don't think we've like, actually talked, one on one before? Maybe once or twice. If we have I'm sorry, my memory was never great, but damn, in all this time, did we ever have a long ass PM chain going or anything? EDIT: Just for Frost; predatorhunted.proboards.com/thread/1934?page=1Last time you read that, i spent an hour in the archives to find it for ya. That was over 10 years ago.

That'd boost the drama/activity. Yeah, people have pretty much moved on from these kinda things, and with the vast social media these days the possible new fans just wouldn't find this without excessive work. Then again, this is still one of those places without all the modern day social media garbage, and it's kinda cozy. But hey, pretty sure this is the most activity this site has seen in a while!

That'd boost the drama/activity. ah... those good old teen-aged years. I sure miss those. I do try to check in too at least every once in while. Who knew that running a household and working full time would be so time consuming. It would be a funny experiment to see what would happen once the ban is lifted. XD Hey double postin' 'cause I can!

But hey, pretty sure this is the most activity this site has seen in a while! Verily. If I had the power, or could find the button, it'd be fun to send out a massive group email to every registered user here, and see who'd turn up. Aye I'd heard the stories, and seen many a friend disappear quite suddenly to these things. Mine too, but that just means every time we talk, it'll be like the first time, all the time!

Naw nothin' yet. I can always poke him on the ol' Facebook. Or Meta or whatever the fuck it calls itself now though.

What does that make Twitter now that Musk bought it?

Someone get me 44.5 billion dollars, I’ll buy Twitter and rename it Torment Nexus, ‘cause that’s just fucking perfect.

Welp, just as yourselves, I find myself missing my childhood and simpler and healthier days and find my way back here.
I consider this to be a rather interesting phenomenon. For one thing, we grew up with forums instead of social media and grew up typing instead of communicating by microphone or cell phone or sending off rapid and abbreviated texts or comments. I suspect we all keep coming back here much in the same way one returns to an empty church or to a cemetery. This was our little "town hall", so to speak, even if occupied by folk we've never shaken physical hands with.
It's dead and gone and empty and hollow and all echoes of footsteps abound now, but it is nonetheless a photoalbum of memories and good times. I'm glad to see other folk still come to this album and I fear the day it eventually disappears.
In the event that this memory lane does just drop off the face of the earth someday, I hope that at least someone here will remember it and pass it along. I find the notion of me potentially telling a grandson about the good old memories I have of typing at people to be rather silly at face value, but hell, it was real interaction and it was frankly more respectful and meaningful interaction than we often get in the real world today with Social Media zombified excuses for human beings.
To you couple folk still trying here, know that you're wonderful people. To the rest long gone, cheers. To you all, have luck.

Welp, just as yourselves, I find myself missing my childhood and simpler and healthier days and find my way back here. That’s exactly it. I don’t know anyone who hangs around cemeteries, but I get your meaning. This place, more than anything, defined and shaped all my online interactions to this day. For better or worse, y’all learned me to call out bullshit, research my opinions and actually consider the shit I want to say. Not always for the better, we really were giant assholes back in the day, but the principals of writing an opinion always stayed with me. For what it’s worth’ this place will stay for years, decades to come. I’m essentially the last steward of the Hunted, so I do try to keep up with our hosts updates. Proboards were acquired by a bigger company a while back, which just means more funding. The forum ain’t going nowhere, anytime soon. Jokers sites is another matter, more mysterious than the Sphinx... . You’re gettin’ soft in your old age Orthy. But, seconded. You always could express the things we others couldn’t.

It’s been almost twenty years since I got here.. Scary.
No one count how old that makes me, lol.
Also, I have a notification tag on my profile but I don’t know what it’s indicating. Anybody know about that?

*pops awake in the middle of the night* Do the fangs on the ends of Yautja mandibles \<i>grow?!?<i>. Are they teeth? Are they claws like fingernails? Are they little horns??
Do they need brushed or do they need nail-filed? I always thought of them like tiny tusks. Tusks are a kind of tooth. But tusks keep growing forever….900 year old Yautja with three inch long tusks?
Anybody have any idea?

Anybody know about that? Crazy to think this place is that old now. And how young we were when we joined. The notification tags were added with the latest Proboards edition. It’s just like on Facebook or Instagram or whatever the kids are on these days. It lets you know when someone quotes one of your posts, or like them. Stuff like that

Was there ever any attempt to create a Discord server for The Hunted? I only remember a facebook page as an option, but maybe it was discussed and I just don't remember it. But I don't know if there are people to create a server for, too little too late. Yeah Monday's are boring.

I would be ALL over that. I have GG’s discord friended, I could see if he responds to a summons.
*looks over her shoulders in both directions* Ummm…I mean the sound of a frightened victim..?
I certainly would never imply I could do something as brash as to *summon* him.
Especially because I absolutely cannot, but I’ll send out some messages, if you guys like?
