Let's face it, it's all on our minds; some of us were mad, sad, shocked, whatever. But, shikata ga nai sometimes, yeah? So, yeah, do a list, express, disclose what were YOU doing when JDorama.com was off-line recently? Not asking to try to pry; respond only if you want. Did you find yourself discovering new things to do? Were you "jonesing" to JDorma-post? Did you feel a sense of a "void"? [I kinda' did] Were you working on posts "off-line," so to speak? Did you find yourself with more free time? Tell, tell (don't be vulgar, though).

Me . . . I actually got out of the house!! Hahha, no, it's true, actually. Went to karaoke, didn't sing along w/the chums as The Man considers himself "retired" from such stuff. Went out. Spent some money. Heck, I don't think I go to this page too often (well, I can't count recent weeks, obviously).

Yeah, yeah, share if you want.

Got some Rina pics.
Went and registered to two other different boards. (Didn't care much for them though)
Cleaned every nook and cranny of the house.
Posted some crap on KikuTv's board
Preparing to do my income taxes (haven't started yet though)
Sleep [image] :sleep: :sleeping:
Sh*t :shit:

You missed the Aho didn't you?!! :nut:

Which one? The Japantoday (click here)???

I don't care for that one either. It feels kind of cold and everyone is in their own world. Or something...
I guess it's just that it's too big, so there is no chance to get to know anyone. Unlike this forum, small enough (still yet) to be able to know and be friends with everyone.

Heh, that is a big forum too! No chance to get to know the peeps (IMO). Not worth my time. Only if Jdorama goes off line again, then I may check it out to see what's going on. F*ckedGaijin is not bad. But I think some of the guys there are asses.

Sucks. It's too bad though. I hope Jdorama does not get too big that everyone becomes distant or has their own cliques and all. It's nice to just be all well accomidated with one another here. I hate cliques and sylos. (spelling?) I've made a lot of friends here and I hope that things don't change (because this is fairly a new site compared to some of the bigger ones). Just my two-yen (cents).

I basically only go to KikuTv and here.

The others which I can't and won't call a home are F*ckedGaijin and JapanToday

I dont count myself a very frequent poster here. basically cause to even try to keep up with 10% of the threads here would take an insane amount of time. So i keep to a few small areas.

I cant say i did something extra when the site was down. But I found myself checking alot for if it was up again. And probabely still would if groink haden't posted the fix on d-addicts.

It's weird that you never knows how much you miss something when it's gone...

I don't think the site is that big yet. I found myself at others which were huger and less friendly.

I was jonzin' for the site to come back up. Had nothing to do and no time to kill.

True that! Many thanks to Groink!
