I remember a few years ago when I joined my first forum. I made tons of friends, and found many new interests. 'Twas actually a turning point in my life (hey, I was 12!)
Out of nowhere it was deleted. I was heartbroken; I had lost contact with many great people who had influenced my life. I've never gotten back in contact with those people after the forum was rebuilt -_-;
It sounds silly to get heartbroken over a forum, but it's really affects you more then you think it would
