I don't post much but I still straddle both worlds and always appreciate the insight and humor of others that travel the same path.

We are back! Thank you, thank you, to everyone who made this possible! [*]I was very active on NOM during the last 18-24 months, but under a different name. I wanted a new start here, so I have a new name.
Red Ryder is right - we owe a huge thanks to Thayne and all others who kept NOM going for so many years - it was an oasis and a source of huge comfort and support. I am glad we now have a safe place to share thoughts, plans, questions, anger and whatever else we want to discuss here. I like the standards of participation - that was one thing that drew me to the old NOM site.
So glad to be here!

I'm an old NOM board member here under a different name, too. Don't know how to express how thankful I am for the folks who made this happen!

This is beyond awesome! Thanks be given to CORSAIR, RR, HAGOTH, and anyone else. You all deserve a PAY LAY ALE and a big thank you.
I almost had to go back into therapy.....we're good now.

So glad NOM is back!!
About 3 months before the site went down I forgot my password and could not log back in and all the admin and reset emails were not working. It felt like I was in outer darkness, able to observe those in the Celestial NOM world but unable to interact with my NOM family.
Only downside is I can't access this through my work computer like the old board. But so much better mobile functionality.
Thanks for all those who set this up. I'm happy to donate to upkeep and maintenance if needed.

Thank you everyone for getting NOM back up and going (V 2.0).
This place made all the difference in the world to me almost 7 years ago. I hope it can help thousands more.

I guess I should chime in on this tread too. Thank you to the great guys who set up our new home. I was about to have to steal "lost's" user name cause I felt so lost.

I would be glad to help contribute as well. I think it would be a good idea to set up the ability to donate, because there may be others like me that have zero technical skills but would still like to support our new home.

It feel's like coming home after a long road trip... Nice to see you all again!
I shortened my screen name and changed my avatar. (Mostly because I can't find my old one on my computer.)
I hope everyone who was here before gets contacted and has the opportunity to rejoin if they desire. Awesome people here providing much needed support.
This is the best ward in the mormonish universe!

An old penguin went waddling out one dark and windy day
Upon a keyboard he rested as he typed along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed TBMs so swell
A-plowing through the parking lot and into the Chapel
Their bosoms were on fire and their wingtips made of steel
Their horns were black and shiny and their quads he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they trundled by and bye
For he saw the Elders coming hard and he heard their mournful sigh
Yippie ti ooh
Yippie ti aiy
It was Red Ryder in the sky
Thanks so much to all of you for making this happen. The sharp sting of losing NOM has now been relieved. Hagoth, Corsair and Red Ryder all are jolly good fellows. Looks like there are some new people (or very old) and some who have changed their names to protect the innocent. We need to pitch a tent, start a campfire and send out an exploring party to look for coconuts, a search feature, and the old NOM archives.

Desertrat here. Thanks for everyone that worked to resurrect the board. I had gone completely inactive from the church and partly inactive from the last board, but still lurked regularly (on the board, not church). I'm planning to post a new introduction when I get a minute. It would be cool to have a new introduction from some of you old timers too!

Look what the church has done to me. I trust no one.
I'm really happy to be able to insert a meme unlike reddit. Also happy about the smilies.
Hah!!
That's exactly what you would say if you had taken over trophywife26.2's username and were posing as her!
Now I'm skeptical of
you being who you claim to be.

Hey! Glad to see NOM is back! Count me among those whom most probably don't recognize. I've participated rarely off and on over the last few years under names eman and blind_nom_ore. Just wanted to grab my user name before someone else did!...cause...you know...it's so poplular....[crickets]
