I really miss the old SaSu

[watereyes]

It used to be so active, especially in chat. Some members were kinda legendary, like they left an impression on absolutely everybody (shoutout to you, crypticat/cryptic_egg).
There were people I had such a connection with, that I even met irl, traveling accross the world just for that one little connection. I can't believe its all a distant memory now. Only a few years have passed, its nothing.

Its weird cause I was more suicidal than ever in my life, but I still miss these times. If I could go back I would know how to save myself in an instant. But today I am completely lost as always. Maybe future me would know how to save me, or maybe she'll be dead :)

If you're an og, give me a shoutout in the comments :)

 

[Sprite_Geist]

Perhaps a few years from now any remaining users, who registered in 2024-25, will be saying the same?

 

[RadiantNumber]

You mean at the time when Serge and Marquis were admins?

Me too...things were definetly different and this site felt more like a real community,but nothing stays always the same unfortunately:(

 

[Scythe]

Would I count? I see SS as pre-Tentacruel video and After Tentacruel video cause that one fucking video caused the site to permanently gain more traction and to me have too much threads in suicide discussion, oh and incels.
I felt there was more in depth discussion before. TAW122 is still around though, they're cool, and an old member. The cat guy's cool too, the one with the pusheen profile pic. There's also Locked and Loaded? Is she still here? I swear I saw her recently.

 

[Dayrain]

The cat guy

@Pluto

Locked and Loaded

@locked*n*loaded

Is she still here?

Yes.

Just by the nature of our mutual interest , the odds are people here are going to leave, and many new will arrive. Like the change of seasons.

 

[that_guy2611]

Been somewhat lurking here since the subreddit was closed.

 

[Unsure and Useless]

I haven't even been here long, and I've noticed a noticeable shift in SaSu's "culture". I can't really put my finger on it, but I understand what you mean. The site feels more empty nowadays, if that's even possible.

 

[Sergeant45]

I lurked here a few times in 2022 but would never consider myself an original obviously. It's very interesting to listen to you guys tell the stories of the old SaSu. It's like when parents tell you a story from their youth!!!

 

[Nothing Left]

Been an off and on lurker here since around 2020/2021ish under a different name.

But didn't really become active until recently.

Before there was SaSu there was alt.suicide.holiday (a.k.a. AshSpace)... I kind of wish that was still running because that website was edgy af, and they actually reccommend coming here on their homepage now. That's how I found this place.

That website began in 1993, which was basically the same year the Internet came started being used by "regular" people. Funny how that and fetish porn were basically the first websites to be created.

I'm a member from the same year this site was made I really miss how it was even though I had some drama on here.

It doesn't surprise me one bit that discussing suicide would be one of the first uses by the public of this kind of technology

 

[Worndown]

Things change, evolve over time.
While the base problems may be the same, the environment in which we exist is very different.

 

[iamanavalanche]

i even miss how things were a year ago in chat :') feels a lot emptier as people ctb or leave sasu. it truly feels like a revolving door

 

[Brokenanddeadinside]

Ya it's nowhere the same as years ago we were a nice small community that same people were on everyday

Hey watereyes long time no seen prob y wont know me by nickname now ..good to see you alive

 

[EternalShore]

I'm sorry that you miss the old community and wish you could have it back~ >_< I dislike when old things pass by too~ >_< regardless, I'm glad you could recover from your old troubles and hope you can recover from these new ones too~ :)

 

[Final-push123]

I miss big ai and bed-head.

It's amazing how kind words can have such a healing effect after all this time

 

[footballseason]

I don't mean to be insensitive to the loss you feel, but I cannot help but notice the dark humor in what you're saying

This is a website full of people who want to die. It's not very surprising that the people who were on here a few years ago aren't on here anymore.

a.s.h and AshSpace are different things. a.s.h is an unmoderated Usenet newsgroup started in 1989. It predates the invention of the World Wide Web which is the internet we know today with webpages and web browsers. You can actually still visit a.s.h if you know how to use Usenet. Due to its unmoderated status, it's long since been flooded with trolls and spam but there are historical archives of some of what people once posted there. AshSpace is just an unofficial website that followed in the footsteps of a.s.h.

I only really know AshSpace. I did try and figure out Usenet at one point but never could get it to load actual posts.

That's so interesting though, thank you for sharing that.

I just logged on after like 4 years and does anyone here remember that one person who was dished and had very broken grammar. I miss them

Well there's little reason to visit it in current day anyways but an archive of many of the posts made is available here. Many of the posts there are...a product of its time during the wild west days of the internet so there's your warning :)

 

[TAW122]

Yeah I'm TAW122 and I've been around not long after the original founders of SaSu founded this platform (which was right after Reddit killed off the SaSu subreddits there). I've been on SaSu for almost 7 years with a hiatus between early 2021 until mid 2022. I too, miss most of the people from the 2018-2019 crowd, and while there are some that are still around, there has been a lot of new changes and also new users over the years. The atmosphere is a bit different but overall SaSu is still unique in the sense that it is a platform where one can have uncensored, candid discussions about CTB, death, assisted suicide, and various things, then on top of that, useful method discussion (I cannot think of any other platform that allows method discussion) and that is a major game changer. I loved the community and I feel like I'm actually validated, heard, and somewhat understood (even if people don't fully comprehend - it's okay).

Also, I believe what separates me from a lot of users here on SaSu is I often make long posts, articles, and threads, and I will likely continue to do so until my time (CTB) has come.

I gotta admit that "Damn tree rats!", a short suicide story about slathering yourself in peanut oil and letting squirrels eat you in the forest being the very first suicide method suggested on a forum like this, is pretty iconic.

hey great to see a member from around the same time I was on here. Idk if we ever talked in chat or not although around time you joined I was going through a lot of drama with two members on this site.

 

[pain247]

I was a lurker for years. Remember a girl that testified to congress. Think she was a friend of Stan SN method. Did not sign up till recent

Ha. I'm actually still in touch with Marquis. As for the other guy, he's completely disappeared without a trace.
