What do you think of the AoS forum?

Great to have you back mate!

Cheers, mate. Hope you're well:)

Marco.

Lovely to see you back Marco. (Knew there was a reason I shaved the Parmesan on to my pasta last night).

Lol, cheers, mate. Good seeing you on your travels again. You know how to enjoy yourself! :respect:

Marco.

Marco, it's good to see you back and hopefully OK.

However, there's no way we'll be turning AoS into some cold faceless clone of Facebook, or as much as I like pfm, the very much 'IT-led' style of how things are done there. Also, and this is something important to consider, AoS is a place for people who don't live on their mobile phones!

Nothing wrong with that of course, but to get the best experience, come here when you're not stressed out, you have some time on your hands, and can sit back on a comfy armchair with a glass of something nice, in front of a laptop, tablet or PC. That's my 'MO'.

AoS was always designed to be different and to shirk the norm, so the 'homely' feel we have here is a big part of that. Think of us as a comfy country pub, selling real ales, and very much socially distanced from the Wetherspoons lot!:cool:

We are an antidote to the rat race:)

Bloody hell is that really you Marco or some imposter that's hacked your account? If the latter they're doing a good impersonation but with AI it's quite possible these days.

The world seems to have changed so much while you've been away! Not necessarily for the better either.

Hi Patrick, thanks. I'm ok and doing much better now:)

I still have some mental health issues, resulting from the effects of long Covid, which need managed with meds.

I'm curious to know in what way?

Yes, 'tis I. I've missed you guys:)

Marco.

I had to look twice at Marco's first return post because I could barely believe my eyes. Yes, he has returned and very welcome. Just hope he's not AI..:hmm:

The rant style is Marcosian. As an AI I fully confirm it.

:D

Dude. Greetings.
