I know this forum layout is probably the bare-bones basic layout and extremely common, but it reminds me so much of my days on the old Chat Avenue forums.

God, I remember wasting SO many hours reading over the threads there and contributing so many blogs. It was ALL crap, lol. The topics we argued about, the blogs we posts, the general useless opinions shared in the chatrooms... I swear, most of us had to be in our early- to mid-teens. Less than 5k currents users at any one time, and drama was all over the place.

I once got into a feud with someone who started using my tags to ape my popularity. I posted so many blogs to kick him out of the tag cloud and off the front page. People made drama over the littlest thing, and at 14, I was no exception.

I kinda miss it among having to pretend I'm a mature adult on a forum of more sophisticated writers than myself.
