Will there be a period of reconciliation with the former older members of this board who have their private forum?
I'm not sure I understand the question.
People left. If they came back here or came back to the official boards, great. If they do not, then they do not.
Why not make the offer for them to come back here?
They do come back to post about once a month, and probably lurk more than most of us think. I honestly don't know why they come back since their mission statement or whatever states that their departure was because of the maturity of junkie as a whole and the character of some of its members. Their board is invite-only, and as such, they can bring on anyone that they desire. So why post here?
Every they come back to post, the cycle is the same. A few people are all like "yay, come back!" most are indifferent, and the mods here reiterate that no one really cares anymore about whatever happened in February, and that they're more than welcome. Then they disappear for another month.
I don't understand straddling the fence, I mean, if you want to leave, then super. If you want to come back, equally super. There is no shortage of members here that enjoyed, and would enjoy what those posters have to offer were they to return, myself included. But I guess that's the whole point of posting every once in a while. Make sure that people are still clamoring for your return, then stick up your nose and continue to reassure yourself that you can't because you're taking the high road after what was really, a rather mundane disagreement.
