The whole site is really quiet. Probably the holydays, school, and whaever else is floating about.

well, you guys and gals joined in 2006. For me, I cannot even imagine what that would be like.
If I had more stuff, I'd post; but I don't.

Unfortunately a lot of the admins and mods have gone. I'm glad that there are still people still posting! I'm sure this site will get some more traffic once the movie gets re-released again in 2013. =)

if you want to see what the forum was like for all of use who have been for a long time all you have to do is take a look at the The Sunken Ship (Atlantican Retirement Home) it has over a 1000 that came to the forum after I did. the best time I can remember is before and for a year or so after TLM3.

I used to run LAF with Steph (Jazzy). We're still great friends and keep in touch, although she is incredibly busy these days. As I understand it, she decided to call it a day with the forum quite a while ago, but left the boards open so that the members could stay in touch. I don't believe the forum is actually run or organised any more, but that could be doing Chris an injustice - I see he's a GM, so maybe he keeps things tidy. Anyway, I pass by once in a while and I'm always happy to see some familiar friends, like Chris, Jared and Ariel - I miss talking TLM with you guys and hope you're all doing well. Lots of happy memories! As for what happened to the activity here, I remember there was a lot of conflict over the years, but at one point it just became ridiculous. Steph and I were not perfect admins by any means, but we put a great deal of work into running this place and some of the members didn't respect our wishes and intentions for the forum at all. Our priority was always to maintain LAF's wonderful community and to keep the forum fun for those members who knew how to get along and not make waves, but unfortunately this became impossible. It got to the point where the task was inordinately difficult and time-consuming for something as frivolous as an Ariel website. It was bringing out the worst in us and seriously testing the friendship that we both valued very much, so we both decided to move on in the end. If any other members from the good old days who don't post any more are reading this, drop me a PM any time with your email address. I don't keep up with what's happening Ariel-wise any more, but I'm always happy to reminisce and keep in touch with old friends. I think it's great people are still posting here with the latest news, etc., but I must admit, if you've joined the forum in the last year or so, I think you're a little late to the party. There are so many places to dicuss things like TLM these days with the development of all the social networks, but for a while we had something really special here. Best fishes as always!

Hey guys, I've been busy with school and applying to colleges lately, and I don't think I'll ever finish any of my stories, I hope they brought smiles to your faces when you read them but honestly it is too difficult to keep writing. I thought that I could get the site back up and popular by making some awesome stories, and for a while it seemed to work, we had 30+ people visit the site in one day, but now I've worn out myself, If anyone wants to take up some of my stories and add on that's fine and I would appreciate that. This was a great experience, I hope one day people can enjoy this like i did. For now, I bid you all farewell, Who knows, maybe I'll get inspired one day and write a chapter, but until then, goodbye, and thanks for the fun.
sincerely, Daytripper, Mr Fanfiction, Doctor Who, King Eric.

I love this forum for what it is and not for what it could be or used to be. It is a place for fans of the TLM. It's really awesome and inspiring to see so many fans.
The last thing members need is to feel posting is a chore or to 'burn-out'. People should want to come here and enjoy. There are many views so this forum is still very much alive (in an albeit passive way.)
