I've been watching since early August and my "obsession time" is still going pretty strong, even if it's almost November. (In fact, it's grown stronger within the past month despite the fact I haven't watched it in weeks.) I hope to be into Sliders for a good while yet. I've just been having such a hard time finding an active community of fans!

So, needless to say, I haven't met anyone in real life that is even aware of Sliders. I plan on dragging a few of my classmates into it so I can at least have some people in real life to talk about it with... haha. XD

I doubt my being the only teenager who likes the show, but I certainly feel that way sometimes.

It's nice to see that trend bucked, honestly.

After a cursory glance at the user list, I probably have chatted with or emailed with a fourth. Although I recognize about half due to continued lurking, but as before this seems to be a male dominated board. I definitely miss the old crowd, but I am quite amused by the fact some of the conversations you guys are having are echoed in my writing group, gaming group, and friends.

At the moment Info is the only one I have continue to talked to on occasion, most recently when the anniversary and the board crash happened. Luckily we are both on Twitter and able to communicate. As for personally meeting anyone, Tf is the only one I have had the chance to know offline. As he said at one time we lived in the same city, and he actually helped save Christmas one year. BTW Tf she still treasures the gifts you gave her. She wouldn't go off to college without them and even uses the ornaments on her tree each year. Thank you for that my friend.

As I mentioned, I miss the old crowd, but as it always happens. We grow up. we move on as life changes. Hopefully the board remains for a very long time.

I just don't get why people insist on making pretty things uglier.

Info, gentrification and McMansions are the order of the day around here.  There's really no reason to live out in the woods anymore, too many bears!

Oh yeah, the question, I don't know anyone on the board, but it and earthprime helped me get through having 2 toddlers over the last 2 years and sleepless nights trying to get newborns to sleep...fun times, plus college, etc. life

Funtown Pier, also located in Seaside Heights and further down the boardwalk, actually suffered more damage, never reopened, and that site is still vacant. A tragic fire occurred about a year after Sandy, destroying a carousel (and some other places). Independent merchants and restaurants along the boardwalk have mostly if not all reopened, or simply never reopened/were replaced. Most of the physical boardwalk was rebuilt after the storm. It's crazy how much damage occurred, but many businesses were rebuilt.
