It seems I'm the only one that survived covid and the other members of the forum have died.

RIP everyone.

Time for a head count. If you would still like to remain a member of this forum then respond to this thread before the end of August otherwise your account will be closed.

Still alive and lost in the trackless wilds of the Darkest Internet, hunting for the fabled BASICs graveyard ...

FYI:

AIR, Peter Verhas and Charles Pegge don't need to chime in as their memberships are guarenteed for a lifetime.

It would be a shame for this forum to lose 80% of its member base due to lost of interest in the forum.

Fact is All BASIC is better indexed in the search engines then any other BASIC forum. If you want to be heard, this is the forum to contribute to.


Google: About 7,810,000 results

Yahoo:  About 444,000 results

Bing: About 578,000 results

It is a little upsetting how few responses there have been.

(Yes, that is British understatement at work).

Actually it's absolutely REDACTED diabolical.

I thought with covid keeping people at home more that the forum would serve as a distraction with folks getting back into programming.

There are at least a half a dozen members that have never logged into the forum. Why would anyone join and never bother to log in?

I am here, and I still intend to lurk freely, also after this Covid business ;)
BASIC deserves to be not only remembered but kept alive!
