I'm going to miss this place. Please tell me that someone has the infamous "Ricwilly" picture saved?!? That has to be one of the first photos we hang up in the new house. I'm going to miss the old cafe the most; with its threadbare carpet and worn out bar it was like an old glove.
I know the new cafe and all the other boards will soon feel like home, but tonight I offer a toast
" To the old forum. May it ever be remembered as a haven for degenerates and Ne'er do wells!........And Ricwilly!!"

Hai! Kampai! *Raises a cup of tea*
I'll miss it too, but I'm looking forward to the new place. Bet it'll be like when we moved just recently; onward and upward to greater things and an even better fortress with a pub in the cellar! ;D
Things will be great there and we'll all party for like a week once everything is ready, haha.
Ask James, I'm pretty sure he has ALL the Ric Willy photos, haha!

I'm just hoping I don't miss the notification saying we've moved. I'll be awful lonesome here on my own.

I've been around for a year now, it feels like a drop in the bucket. I still feel like a newbie, but in a good way, like this place is fresh and exciting to me every time I come here. I'm looking forward to the new place, but I sure will miss this one. But Avery, I think you're on to something. As long as we've got RicWilly, it'll be home.

I've only been registered for two months, but it feels like so much longer. I've tried making up for all the time I spent lurking and it led to meeting a dozen or more fine gentlemen I'd be proud friend.

Wow, I've been here three years and that isn't even including the time I spent lurking when the forum was in its infancy, will be strange to remove this address from my head. I've seen people come and go, I've seen some amazing progress and heard some amazing stories and met some amazing people I consider friends. Here's to another 10 years in a new place

And here's to a new beginning and to new good times to come. A home is what you make of it, so the saying goes, and I am sure we will all make our new corner of the web just as good, if not better. Hopefully we don't lose anyone during the move from here to there....er...where ever "there" is.

Only happy to meet the gents, Vince? Not us ladies? I read the newsletter Paul sent out early this morning. It sounds like the new forum will be so much better than the old, though this place is special. I just hope the magic transfers when the software does! ;D

I'm quite excited about the new forum, I just hope we won't loose too much of the material on the olf forum, and also hope that most current forumnites will make the transition. Besides the new bar in the new forum will probably be clean and not sticky... Unless Av....uh.. someone doesn't get to it before the rest of us

I love this place, I spend way more time here than Facebook But since we will be taking all the wonderful folks here, and the legends like Ric, Paul, Avery, James, to name a few, the content of our site, and hopefully our handles and post count ;D The new site should feel like home immediately Plus the freedom from political persecution BTW, where can I get a cool Viking helmet like that with the horns on it Yes, I have heard Vikings didn't wear helmets like that, but I think the horned helmets look cool anyway ;D

Just get a regular helmet and buy a couple of horns from tandyleatherfactory and attach them, they're pretty cheap.
I'm looking forward to the move. I have my swords all boxed up and ready to go! ;D

.....-are we taking the moosehead with us?..... THAT´s the name of the beer that I´ve been trying to remember for the last two weeks !!!! + 1 2 ya for the assist. If the new Cafe has a bar and has Moosehead beer available, I´ll be the first in line.

I hope Paul didn't spend too much on getting us a clean, new Cafe... I will bring some good whiskey and my car, in case I can't walk when the night's over
