Many, many years ago I went from lurking on the msn money forums to occasionally joining into the conversation, although I was too shy to post anywhere other than everything else. I remember the announcement about the move to proboards when the old discussions shut down, but I can't remember why I didn't migrate over. It might have coincided with moving and going back to school. I went by desolate_angel, desolate for short. It was a user name I'd had since 17 and I couldn't think of anything better years later. I no longer remember anyone's user names except a character that went by WCP or Windy City Paul. Everything Else was better than cable, which I didn't have and couldn't afford. But really, I've missed the boards as years have passed and was happy to see it's still alive.
Now that I've found the community again, I hope to do some more lurking and occasional posting.

Welcome Aboard! I think a number of us did a bit of lurking, before we dived in.  |

Welcome back, and I hope you do decide to post. Most of us are pretty friendly.  It's hard to believe that it's been almost 11 years since the msn boards were discontinued! I'm glad so many did make the jump over here, though.

Yes, it has been a very long time. A few of us started out on the old CNBC message board and moved to MSN Board after CNBC shut their board down. Cannot remember 100% correctly but I believe they wanted us to move there as they were all part of the Microsoft/NBC group behind MSNBC.
Regardless, welcome back!
