It's finally happened...

I was just checking back on IMDb, and I noticed that my very first thread on TOB is now gone. I submitted the opening post on February 20th, two days after seeing Brokeback Mountain for the first time, and though this wasn't my very first post on TOB, it was the first one I made after actually experiencing the film. The title of my initial post was 'The tears keep coming'. I know some people now on board here replied to that, and some very beautiful sentiments were expressed in that thread. It was inevitable that the thread would one day disappear, but it's still a bit melancholy to realize that it is now a fact. Thank you all for the warm and tender connections that were initiated on that thread that was so dear to my heart. May those connections endure here in our safer home of BetterMost.

Oh, I remember you, Scott! I loved your posts (still do, of course). And I remember that particular thread.
Well, here it is three months later, and the tears keep coming for me even now.

Me too...I was just thinking of the scene where Cassie is asking questions of Alma, Jr. in the tavern, and Alma, Jr. says that her daddy perhaps isn't "the marrying kind", and for some reason the memory made tears well up in my eyes. Any scene in the film can be a potential inducer of tears, even three months later. The grieving lessens somewhat, but it never seems to go away entirely. Annie and Ang, what have you done to us?

This makes me feel sorry for the few valiant people on TOB who work hard to stay ahead of the trolls and engage with the many new people who are just now seeing the film for the first time.
I share your grieving, Scott!
j.U.d.E.:
I remember that thread too, Scott! I'm not sure if I posted on it, but I did read! Sad it's gone!
