Same here. I remember I'd all but stopped coming to this site for quite a while ... and then I happened to open a hundred-page-long-thread I hadn't bothered to look at, as it seemed like pro-SE junk to me ... Adywan's ANH:R thread.

And the site went from being past its prime to the dawn of a new era (or something pretentious like that).

Then more GOUT restorations started popping up, and then Frink showed up to make things fun ... and I've been back to visiting this site almost daily ever since.
