I can't see that happening here, and feel like the proof of it.
I've felt mostly welcome - despite being what I imagine to be much older than average participant age, and manifesting arguably above average "out there" tendencies.
I'll always wish there could be more interaction, because that's what I valued most in my early "local BBS" and internet experience. But I also understand people seek interactive comfort zones.
That said, I've far less time for this sort of thing that I did even a month or two ago, and thus would never fault others for becoming more meatspace.
Fair enough, I'm just always like this when joining new communities. It is nice to hear that everyone's a bit "out there," makes me feel better about my own "out there"-ness.
On another note, bulletin board systems have always intrigued me, even though I wasn't around when they were prominent. What were they like exactly?
