There are several reasons why I miss the old FCF.
In the first place, it was my first Apostolic discussion forum, and debating the issues with strangers online was a new and novel experience. As several have mentioned, I think some of us old timers have become a little jaded with the same old arguments recycled over and over again, and the same tired old put downs and accusations of abuse and phariseeism.
Secondly, there was an eclectic mix of posters that made for a level of discourse that has never been matched in my opinion. Some of the players that were there made it what it was. Brother Chalfant, Parson, Doug Joseph, Breachmender, Wally, Maple Leaf...and of course the man lots of you guys love to villify, WWOD. Say what you will, the forum will never be what it was without him. I even miss Tribble and all his antics and lunacy.
I enjoyed NFCF, and have enjoyed AFF, though my interest has waned some lately. But neither of them have been what FCF was.
Like Tennyson said in one of his poems, "The tender grace of a day that is dead/ Shall never come back to me."
