Airbornerose Shut Down
I was sad to see my friend Airbornerose shut down.
Have you ever thought of shutting down your xanga site?

I did shut down once. My quietmeteorshowers/designlessthoughts account. BUT I couldnt stay away and then imSOweakrightnow was born!!
I’ve hovered over the trigger on old sites. I can’t do it.
yeah. this site is way gay.
Totally. Been there, done that. I don’t know what happened, but Airbornerose is a sweetheart, and I hope that she is ok and hope she will come back.
I have many times. The drama is enough to drive me away, along with the sickies who talk to themselves….but I have so many great friends here and after all, this is where I met my husband, so to close her down would be like cutting off an appendage at this point.
I shut down my site back in high school when I wasn’t attached and I’ve thought about doing it again, but eh… if anything, I’d just go inactive on Xanga instead of shutting down.
Not really. My old site from high school is still lying around unused.
@ItIsAllGravy - Agreed. I wanted to once, but I just could not do it.
MY HEART IS BROKEN!! SHE’S GONE!! *sobs*
Nah, too much memories. I think Airbornerose will be back sooner than we think.
Nah, I like the name too much.
Why did she leave?
Before she even saw the picture I drew of her.
u said u were shutting down! what happened?
Didn’t you just post this question like a couple days ago? You sneaky man you
I have this account now don’t I?
no. too much coolness to shut down B-)
I’ve closed many accounts, always ended up regretting it.
But for my last account, I purposefully threw away the password instead of shutting it down: http://happylemming.xanga.com/
And damn, I liked Airbornerose . I also wanted to see her reply to my argument with her.
Nope. I’d just take a break away from it. Even if it’s several months or longer.
The temptation crosses my mind from time to time, but I don’t think I’d ever actually do it. I just get discouraged sometimes with the crap in my inbox.
Not seriously. I just take breaks. I don’t think I will let anybody run me off.
I shut one down before, I wasn’t using it and didnt like the name. This one is here to stay. She will be missed.
For the sake of a penguin, she was an xanga host. Does gravy have anything to do with this? My high school site I shut it down. Senior year my grade did an activity called senior assasin, but to be a part of it you had to open an xanga site. This was roughly seven years ago. I wonder if Dan spoke to any of my classmates. I wonder if any of my classmates still have xanga!
I have thought about it….I don’t spend much time here, and don’t write much anymore…but alot of stuff is preserved here that I don’t want to lose, and it’s a way to stay in touch with certain people.
Hooray for repeat blog posts. Ubad Dan.
She’s awesome in person. She better be back soon!
I’m far way too attached to my site to shut it down completely!
Thought about it today.
i don’t recall you ever shedding a tear when i shut down my sites
Never. In fact I might just take the leap and buy myself lifetime after a couple more paychecks come in. I freaking love this place.
Sometimes all the drama makes me think about it… But I can’t pull that trigger. Nope. I’ve been here since 2005 and I can’t see myself leaving anytime soon.
no, I just abandon my site and revisit when I feel like it. I haven’t connected with many people, so I come and go as I please. I’m the boss and my site is my biatch that I toss around
No, too much time and energy invested.
replica Hermes bags are priced a little higher than some other brands of replica handbags for their high qualities. With superior imitation, they look almost as identical as the original ones. Also high quality materials should be selected to ensure the same visual appearance.
i have an old account from high school that i recently put completely on friends lock. i didn’t have any friends on here back then so it was just me blogging to myself. lol. i can’t shut it down, too many memories.
No, no point now, since I brought premium nearly three years ago and spent nearly £50 = $100 and would be a waste of money if I did that
not ever, okay sometimes
I’ve never really thought about it. Granted, I don’t write very often to begin with and when I do, it’s usually personal stuff that wouldn’t be remotely interesting to people that don’t know me. I’m mostly here because I find other peoples’ sites interesting.
I don’t think I could ever do it… I may get sick of the drama but I try to avoid it. Besides… I met my husband on here… I think that makes me a default Xangan for life.
I’ve thought about it. There are too many memories. Even though I rarely post now, I still can’t bring myself to shut my site down.
*grins*
Sure but I never do. Mostly because I invested in getting Life, so I’m kind of stuck here.
Also as much as people complain about how vicious things get here, just about every site has similar, and often worse, problems.
Did her husband shut his down as well? I am still thinking about shutting this one down, really tired of all the nonsense going around. Kids acting like adults acting like kids. You know the drill.
I have thought about it but then it would mean saving all my blogs etc. I don’t wanna do that so it stays open. If I don’t feel like being here then I won’t be. I have been known to disappear for months at a time. I doubt anyone would miss me lol. I didn’t know that person you mentioned so it’s not a big loss to me. I am sorry for everyone else who lost a good friend. Hopefully she will have a change of heart and come back.
Nah. This blog will be around for my great-grandkids to read someday. That is, if Xanga itself is still around.
When I first started, I thought about shutting down, because traffic was low, but I never really will.
No. I like to blog. I’m not much for the drama and such. Although I do find it quite comical how serious people get over the dumbest things. Even if everyone left, I’d still be here because I like to write and it helps me get through the rough days.
It is sad whenever someone passes away. I hope she’s in a better place, now.
Absolutely not.
No. I will probably be dead before my Xanga site is.
Yep. Still thinking about it, too.
Whyyy did she shut down?!
But nah, my old sites from high school are still up. All…3 + many experimental ones for layouts I’d created. XD
No but I am so sad she is gone,I really like her.
I’ve done it before. Although, I guess I wasn’t really much part of the, er, community here? So it affected just me, I guess~
I just make a new account.
all the time I think of shutting down but I keep plugging along
I’ve thought about it. But I don’t know where I’d go.
I just start this site yesterday!! no!!
lol
Aww that makes me sad.
thought about shutting down because i felt like i was spending too much time but honestly seems like a waste to delete all of the memories. i can just man up and spend less time here which is what i do now.
naw.. just breaks for me…… hopefully she’ll be back soon
I wouldn’t shut down my site because of any outside sources. there are assholes I don’t like in real life too but that doesn’t mean I think about killing myself when they get annoying!
i thought about it, but i don’t post or interact with other users that much anyways.
I shut down my old site, didn’t matter I only had one real xanga friend and some irl people who just liked to creep on me.
Suri sported her own pint-size orange cheap louis vuitton handbags matching Mom’s perfectly. Katie was later seen wearing a classic black pencil skirt and red heels, accented by the rare burgundy Garden Party handbag. The handbag is the size of a common boarding bag, and with all the space it offers, Katie was ready for just about anything.
I wonder why.
No, I love Xanga even though I don’t post anymore.
I was really sad when I saw that she left. she pulsed right before shut down her site, and when I clicked it was gone. I didn’t believe it so I clicked it again 3 more times. ): she was pissed how awful people are to Fred, and I don’t blame her. but I really liked her!
I’m still upset about Jess leaving for good. She came back before, but there was never this sort of gap- it’s been about a year now. I’m still holding out hope, though…..
I have stomped off in a rage a couple of times-but it’s in the blood now. A couple of my more awesome Xanga peeps are on hiatus now, for some of the same reasons as I was. I saw one poke his head out of the hole and comment tonight, so all is not lost.
Rumor has it that Ricky is around still, under a Deep Cover pseudonym.
I don’t know why she did and I liked the pictures she posted and what she wrote. I hope she comes back soon. I actually have twice and this is my third one. The other two ones were really old sites and my last one was well it had a typo and it sucked a lot lol
It’s no big deal,life goes on just like it always has and always will.I’ve shutdown a few times and nobody really cared I don’t think just like no one would really care if I shut this one down.I don’t care enough about it now to even shut it down lol
Yes. I wish xanga had an option to temporarily shut it down, because sometimes I just don’t want people to come to my site, but I have been on this xanga since I was fifteen and I’d feel like I was deleting my life or something if I completely shut it down. I deleted one before this one because I was angry at my friends at the time and felt like it would be a dramatic move to delete my xanga. I was 14.
I could never shut this site down.
There’s a good article on John Piper’s “Desiring God” site about the danger of being distracted by techno. overload. See also a good article on this subject at Eternal Perspectives Ministries/Randy Alcorn’s page. See: http://www.epm.org – article entitled “Solomon on Social Media”
