Hello wonderful people!
I joined AS in 1997 as Jan2836 Antonius. LOL What a name! So many people wanted to know what the Jan2836 meant. hehehe Many asked if that were my birthday..."no, it is not," I told them, "and I don't know what it means." I thought one had to have a name and numbers for safety on the internet, at least that is what I was told by AOL in those days....so for the numbers...LOL
Using that name for a few months I decided to change it but was told I could not but I could have another name and domus; therefore, LadyJan Antonius was my AS name for years until AS disappeared into the skies. Oh, that awful night! I was still online when AS disappeared for all time into the unknown.
Then, Jot emailed me when AW was in the making and online and I came and joined immediately. I had paid for a $250 Lifetime Patron membership for 2 of my personas at AS: Rome (LadyJan Antonius) and The Reader's Vine (Antonia Dante) (lifetime??) just before AS closed. I honestly felt cheated that I did not get to enjoy my Lifetime Patronships, But, it is just money, right? Oh, but that did hurt!
I have been here so many years and still love AS/AW very much. Where else in an online community can one go and learn so much about ancient history and interact and socialize with people who are interested and excited in the same subjects that I adore?
I come as often as I can and still keep up with all my RL activities, which seem to get more involved as time goes on. Always, I will find a little time to be here at the best place on the net!
