User blog comment:Bullet Francisco/What Inspires a Strong Sense of SNN Nostalgia?/@comment-1669199-20131114211805

For me, Talk pages -- and all the fun conversations I've once had with people both still present and others long gone, whom I miss greatly. While chatting on the chatroom and a forum/blog is easy and convenient, for me back in the old days Talk pages were used much more extensively than they are now, and it was always a joy/wonder to see who took the time to write what to me. Sure, I still get messages whenever someone has a question and stuff, but a few years back it was nice to see the message notifications because, usually, it meant someone was taking the time to say hello to me and see how I was doing (not that I don't get messages like that anymore, mind you).

A bit of a strange choice for nostalgia, I'm sure, but its the best I got.
