One last check, and as expected I find the once raucous and lively aff
abandoned for the manifold venues of the web, left to emptyness,
crickets, and the occasional rude word graffitist. We never had a
moderator or anything like that, but I guess I spent enough time in here
in the old things to be qualified for this (reaches up, clicks off the
light, and closes the door.)

Goodnight, and may God Bless...

Yep. Declared officially derelict six months ago, and the newcomer or two
that appeared after that directed to the furry web forums. I'd guess
there were a handful of us old guard that hadn't got around to removing
AFF from our newsgroup list due despite having long stopped posting
anything here. 'Night all, and err... continue as usual in the web forums.

Blame yourself. You were lured by the likes of Facebook etc and the rest
is history. I never left usenet, and never will use Facebook.

Oh, a few of us are still here. :) We have our web-interface forums as
well, but AFF remains the best general clearing house for furry fandom.
