    Hello, all,

    Just posting a general hello. Returning to the newsgroup after some time out, and checking if people still read this.

    Regards,

    I still check in here regularly hoping something will happen. :) It seems most of the posts here in the last year or so were by me, so I don't want to be too spammy. ;) Nice to see some life here even though most Dragon activity is on social media these
    days. Alt.games.ultima.dragons was my home until I couldn't access it anymore, and I still think of this as the "new" newsgroup. Though once the Weyrmount was built (in 1995!) I sort of left IRC for it. I'm still on the Weyrmount today. It too is a
    holdout against these fancy newfangled social networks. :)

    Anyway, I'll stop by often enough. I've been slowly learning more of our history one thread at a time by going back and reading old posts. I wrote a lot of it into the book I wrote for the Bash, but I've found UDIC history is complicated and fascinating,
    and probably will require volumes to catalog it all. Let's keep making history. :)
