- Femme - Posted June 8, 2020 Howdy all, The corona self isolating times has got me reminiscing and Somalia online somehow got into my mind. It took me several tries to search for my username (I no long used that email) and try maybe 10 different passwords and I finally was able to log in. So many memories! I made this account in 2007 when I started college. It gave me a lot of entertainment when I wanted break from my studies. I used to go by Femme Fatale and enjoyed the Women and General forum lively discussions at that time. According to my account, my last post was in 2013. I wonder if folks from that time are around? I took a quick look to see those I remember and I'm glad some did not change their names: Underdog, Ngonge (wow! some of the greatest posts), Valenteenah and her friend (can't remember the name!), BOB, Macalin/Lakkad, Miskiin Maqruuf Aqiyaar (I remember lots of politics posts), Nuune, Stoic, Johnny B, and many others! Say Hi! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tallaabo Posted June 9, 2020 Hi Femme, welcome back to SOL. 2007 to 2013 is like the bronze age in SOL's calendar so unfortunately all but one of the characters you have mentioned are resting in peace in this forum's virtual cemetery. The exception is MMA who refused to go away like a bad spirit and continues to haunt us day and night. Oh and there is another ancient still here called Che. He too is from that era but we have managed to mummify him and he is on display now and then Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
- Femme - Posted June 9, 2020 Thanks for the reply! Yes, I remember Che too. Bronze Age? Yikes. What do you consider the golden ages then? Were you there back then too and changed ur username? Thanks for the welcome. It feels weird to be back. Like divorcing your first love when you were in your twenties and getting back together in your 60s. He’s old, balding, fat around the middle-but you still remember the good times and what first attracted you to him. Sigh. I see the most boring forum (ahem politics) finally took over and got rid of all the others. No offence! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Say Hi! Welkam back, sister. I hope all is well on your side. Nuune and other old timers like raula and Garabtuujiye are on Facebook.

Holac Posted June 10, 2020 Their kids or even grand kids are here probably. Once you hit 58, you become a reader, not a poster. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ngonge's posts were gold and let us not forget Abtigiis. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah the politics section became like that one tea shop in an abandoned village where travellers stop by now and then to catch a breath and get a word or two about the happenings of life. Without it SOL would be like those excavation sites which once upon a time used to be busy towns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
