All of the above!

But most of all - you guys. The quality of members on RYL was something I've never seen bettered, even all these years later

Hello Harley!





I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.

Don't try to calm the storm, calm yourself, the storm will pass.

You didn't come this far just to come this far.

A wild Harley appeared, it ran off.


I miss the way you could log on and there would be loads of people online. I guess I miss the friends I made here, but even the ones I'm out of touch with have moved on which is positive.


To be totally honest, I guess I miss being younger and not having a proper job etc.

I miss my friends from here. I can't believe how many hours I would spend online chatting with people. I can't believe how different the internet was back then.

I first joined when I was 14/15 and now I'm 30, that blows my mind. Occasionally I'll get curious and pop back on (like today), maybe read some old posts - so many memories.

I hope anyone who recognises me (and anyone who doesnt) is doing OK.

God I feel so nostalgic, its TOO MUCH.



How many ticks left in that clockwork heart?

Yes, there would be many people on at any time and you would recognise them all, haha.

I'm feeling super nostalgic for just simpler times online. This place is like an antique now.

Omg sorry for the triple post but my subtitle says "in an ocean that is churning" and now a gajillion years later I am literally a marine biologist and literally spend time in oceans that are churning. UGH THE FEELS.

I am far from home and struggling a little, I absolutely needed this thread <3

Oh I also miss chat big time. Chat was brilliant and awful in equal measure.

I found a lot of music from this place. I ended-up at Morrissey, Placebo, Cure and Dev Hynes gigs because of RYL (where is DizTurbed when you need her?). There were the goth and emo waves. Only recent people I've liked is Tash Sultana (if you like electric guitar dont miss her). Seems that a lot of music is now drum tracks and nursery rhymes lol

I don’t remember much about ryl prior to 2012



Have you ever confused a dream with life? Or stolen something when you have the cash? Have you ever been blue? Or thought your train moving while sitting still? Maybe I was just crazy. Maybe it was the 60's. Or maybe I was just a girl... interrupted.
I know what it's like to want to die. How it hurts to smile. How you try to fit in but you can't. How you hurt yourself on the outside to try to kill the thing on the inside. I tried groups, didn't work out just made my depression a lot worse.

Just popped on to say hi *waves*
It's always reassuring to come on every now and then and see posts from old timers like Jack.
Harley was going to reset my password on my original Blindspot account but that never happened. I really want to read some old PM's for the nostalgia!

Hope everyone is well in this pandemic world oddness.

Who you callin and old timer? Just because I'm well into in double digit RYL years lol? Its mildly alarming that people who I knew from here when they were 16 now have careers and broods of children. I can't even keep house plants alive ( I even lost a cactus and that's saying something). Nice to see you around

Not sure if it counts as "old" RYL but I always thought the first aid section was a really good idea. I've never seen that on any other forum. And the fact that there always used to be people about (but I guess it's a cultural thing that people don't really use forums any more and it's mostly just the old timers sticking around; same happened to the other forum I used to use, which has sadly now shut down)

Haha I'm an old timer too ;)
I don't have any children but have been successful in keeping a couple of plants alive so that's something!

I hope you're doing well Jack

Thanks - well enough I think. The old curse declares "may you live in intertesting times" - I could add "or New York" lol.
