This website loads really fast. It's quite nice. I have gradually lost track how everything else on computers got slower.

Is this going to keep going until we die? I'm middle-age now. I felt pangs of nostalgia, and it did not disappoint.

What if we're all dead and people are still posting on TWW, in the future? It seems unlikely but it's not impossible.

I feel like getting people to sign up, but from some completely inappropriate place.

Eventually we're going to be using this from nursing homes. I'm thinking outside of the box.

Welcome back. The Coz and I have basically had to carry this place in your absence.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but some of your favorite posters are already dead.

Also, currently there are no new users on tww, although there is a user cosplaying as a college student.

Until new users can sign up, we’re basically a living monument to a lost era.

so basically, when I was told "we locked your thread by accident, my bad, we cant unlock them," years ago, this was a lie.

This wasn't qntmfred, it was before he was in charge, and things are much better now than those days.

Its been basically the same ~50 users or so for the past 10 years. I have never met any of the ones that still post regularly, but we all kinda know each other. I still enjoy all of you folks.

Although it would prob be good to get some new users, if some NCSU freshman signs up, then sees a bunch of middle-aged old fogies with 20k+ post counts dating back to before they were born, all talking about inside jokes, they prob are gonna have a hard time feeling welcome unless they are extremely outgoing. Add to it that all of us grew up in a time when desktop computers were way more common than phones/tablets (that the new generation uses) and this site isn't an app and isn't optimized for a phone screen, and they likely won't be too interested.

You have met me before, Wraith, but to be fair, I was not and am not memorable, and never was outgoing. It's comparatively easy for me to remember meeting you because of your outrageous accent.

But we had MAE 314 Solid Mechanics together with Hamid Davoodi, and some kind of Fortran path-crossing. Also, Super Smash Bros. Melee tournaments in Bragaw.

I honestly wouldn’t mind a meet up of sorts, for those of us that are still local to the area.

Thanks for unlocking this thread, qntmbot!

Also, EMCE made me check for youknowyoumissedit upthread. But somehow it was legit.

Actually now that you mention it, I do think I remember you, The Coz. Davoodi was an absolutely awful professor and I taught Fortran as a Lab TA for 6 semesters after taking the class itself, so it makes sense that we would have crossed Fortran paths in some way or another. My crowning achievement in Smash Bros tournaments was making it to the third round once. Fun fact: I was a founding member of the NCSU Smash Bros club my junior year. Another founding member has a sister that will be literally flying around the moon next year.

Unfortunately, lunar wifi is pretty slow.

Also, I don't actually know her. Just her brother. I guess I could send him a FB message and be like "Hey could you ask your sister to post on TWW while doing astronaut stuff?"

I don't know if it's a continuation of your club, or a club at all, but whenever I go to the library there's always the same few 'chubby' kids playing Smash Bros in the library gaming room.
