Obvs did the work. I just helped track him down and spread the word. Hopefully more people get the message and return!

Within the next few days I'm going to make an effort to read the database table for users' email addresses and send out a message to all former members inviting them to join our relaunched forums.

Thank you for bringing it back and its nice to be around to seen it come back. No joke I was thinking about MacStack less than 48 hours ago. World is kinda wild now and I was trying to think what the hot takes woukd be from all the various posters I remember from this place.

Y'all, I've changed a lot. I think I might be slightly less full of shit?

Still extremely online, however.

I think thats a lot of us, I know I’ve grown up and matured a lot over the years too, still slightly full of shit though (and extremely online)

Mine went to spam. Might take a few cycles to get everyone back.

Can you add a “check your spam” to the message at the top, obvs? A lot of people are getting stuck on the validation.

Thanks for the re-launch.

How long has it been??

It's lovely to see those Macstack-specific emojis again!

We have the MacAddict ones too, if you click on "Post Reply" and then on "Maxes" on the right side of the posting page.

Man what a flashback. I’m sorry I missed opening day, but I was working my new gig for Valentine’s Day weekend. I promise to try harder this time around, and not be a stranger.

Thanks for reviving the only True Form of social media.
