Fortunately we were able to get a bunch of the NYS/CT group over here!
Yeah, I think as long as you can find your ācircle,ā it matters not where they end up.
True. But Iām also happy to have that board pick up some steam!
Possibly just the logistics of being able to contact posters, or not.
Iād say the folk regularly contributing to the UK/Ireland board broke in roughly three ways. Some moved here, some stayed, some have disappeared.
I know all of L.A. posters moved over to Food Talk Central . If you need any information on that area they are all there . And have great info . Very active board .
thanks for this. i relied on a lot of these people for any time i go to LA, and I didnāt realize thatās where they ended up. Actually, I hadnāt even caught on to Food Talk Central.

It would probably be more aptly named as LA Talk Central.

I sussed that out almost immediately. Thatās why Iāve decided to stay here. Although, at the moment I seem to be here, there, and everywhere else.

Any board has increased traffic instead of decrease?
No, definitely not. It seems like thereās more resurrections of zombie threads, though, from people popping in via Google.
If only they gave that Junior guy his own board a lot of this could have been avoided. Such a shame.

That is probably true.
Yet another former CH here. I posted for about a dozen years - same name - and was slow to realize how moribund CH had become. In my defense, we traveled a lot at the end of last year ā¦ but it was like talking to an empty room. Why waste my time?
About once a week, I might check CH to see if anything interesting has popped up. Sorry to say, 100% of the time, it was a waste.
Depending on my interest du jour, I will check various boards. Nothing consistent. If we have a trip, I will check those locations. Iāll regularly read Home Cook and General discussions (unless it is about tipping, then I pass).
So glad to find HO. Thanks for such a welcoming, new home.

Welcome, Sherri. I just checked CH this morning and someone posted a question about where to eat in St. Martin for her 40th - a year ago. Someone just answeredā¦

- Yes, was a CH since 2007. Made 1,167 posts, last one in Sep 2015 - didnāt like the new format so I just stopped posting.
- Oh yes, Iād never given CH a peep since.
- My home board - Asia-Pacific: Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Hong Kong, etc.

Hello and WELCOME!!
How did you hear about us over here? Look forward to your contributions!!!
Perhaps she will return for her 41st!!
I look over there about once a week, Iām lucky if 6 threads Iāve participated in have activity. As far as new threads on my local board, MAYBE 1-2 a week. So sad.
??? Somehow I found both HO and FTC. Iām pretty certain that Robert Lauriston was involved somehow ā¦ Googling around the web there was mention of both sites - hurrah! CH has ceased to be viable and I am thrilled to see so many familiar names here. I wondered what had happened to them and now I know they are as smart as I thought they were!
