I've been going to EoFF since 2001 (I know my profile dosen't say that.. blame that on me not remembering my old username) and I think I've changed a fair deal. EoFF isn't a big part of my life now, but back in 01, it was a pretty big part of it.
As Proto says, time does change and we've all grown older. Lots of things have changed about myself, and I'm sure that's the same for many others. People move on with their lives, and I'm sure a majority of the veterans will do this soon as well.
