It was the millions of people who had access to the original Help.
What surprises me is that people don't look back after CBS (or C-Net) destroyed it.
I mean...wtf?

Yes i hate how internet did that. And now cant even hand cvs out! And have to do it all online!ahat anout ppl who dont have internet? Or those with disabilities who cant use internet? Where is the adaptations? Cos id bet u that if u told the person u couldnt use internet to apply cos diability then they would say oh well u can hand one in, but they would likely then discard it. Thats my guess.

It's not, Nick. CBS blew it into extinction - it's gone.

But, instead, why not be grateful for the effort someone put into resurrecting this site and try to get a hold of former members.

This is still Help.com - we just need our people back - ALL our people.

GTH off Facebook.

We all just grew up and became stuffy oldsters set in our ways.
Lol
The good news is the posts here are real.
The old help had fake posts , mostly suicidal posts that were scripted for reasons Im not clear on.
What you have now is real.
The drama is gone, and the camaraderie is better than ever.

Just remember, guys (and gals) there were plenty of trolls at the old Help too, not to mention Facebook has plenty of sneeks also.
It doesn't hurt to bring new people in.

Also dont ever forget. The old help had fake posts written up by mods. The suicide posts. Im not sure why.
Mostly fake.
I fell for it.
The new help is mostly real.
Sad, but I was a young man then.
Not anymore.
Good seeing you littlenick.
