Is there another vegweb site somewhere?

All the posts in the forums are so old. Where did everyone go? Is there another site somewhere? The Beta site--whatever that is? There were a bunch of very regular users that haven't posted in ages and I am wondering where they are.
Are they in the cyber equivalent of luxury skyboxes while I'm sitting in the bleachers?
No, it's just that everything has been like this for so long that most have given up. I'm still here, though this morning I'm told I'm "michellebollum."
But then I'm stubborn.
yes, but no baypuppy, no mdvegan, no hespedal or secondbase or jessicita or AC or amymylove or KMK? It seems like they're partying somewhere else and we haven't been invited!

f.k.a. JKL now apparently "veggiemom21"
Check your PMs, JKL, I sent you one.
jkl, Do you have fb? We have a group over there that's less glitchy. I'll add you if you do. Yabbit's a no-fb holdout.
HH, alas I do not have FB.
I am hoping this is just a temporary setback for VW. I told Yabbit it reminds me of the time when Yvette got fed up and took down the forum. Eventually it came back, and so did most people. But in the meantime it is very boring . . . .
Well, if you ever get it and find one of us, you'll find all of us. When Yvonne closed the forums we weren't connected any other way. Now that we have facebook and our own closed group, there's not much incentive.
and hesp isn't vegan anymore so u won't find her anywhere lol
VEGWEB IS DEAD
So I guess I'm a little late to the party?
Well, this thread explains a lot... so... ok then. :(
Message me or one of the main old VW peeps personally for an invite to our new group on facebook. The only reason I signed up for facebook awhile ago was to keep up with vegan peeps! Yabbit get your ass on facebook everyone is talking about how much they miss u!!!!!!!!!!
Or you could all try the new less glitchy forums here and support a vegan company that's taken some blows lately but is back and committed to making veganism fun and delicious! We're ironing out a few more issues (and reading comments in the forums with an insane frequency to get your feedback!) and realllly hoping you all will come back and hang with us! More awesome recipes are added daily, there are tons of new vegans here looking for support, and, just in general, we miss you guys! We know we messed up and we feel so awful about it, but we've listened to feedback and are trying to restructure the site in a way that you all will love! Plus, we're vegan owned and operated! Hey now!
If you have any specific comments or feedback or just want to vent or also, tell me I'm pretty and smart (or ugly and the worst! I like all attention!), feel free to shoot me an email! I think the world of this community and tell people that on the regular. VegWeb was the biggest help to me when I first went vegan and, with your help, I really hope we can continue supporting new vegans (and just anyone who wants to cook an amazing veg meal) for years to come!!

BP!
How long have you had a new photo? Your description of yourself as a loner + photo = oddly creepy
Maybe there are too many different forums now. They made sense when there was more traffic. Plus it used to be fun when there was one forum and everything was mushed together. Requests for tempeh recipes and raging debates over gun ownership, all in one convenient place.
GO VEGWEB
So which is it aml: GO VEGWEB or VEGWEB IS DEAD?
Like Yabbit, I'm stubborn so I'm still here. I mostly skulk around in the shadows.....waiting for the return of the VW that once was......
Can't it be both?
GO ZOMBIE VEGWEB
vegweb enters an existential crisis
