mickOG 2003

Nancy joined eZabel in late December 2003 and immediately made herself at home, jumping into the forum threads that mattered most — macking advice, general chat, and food. She had a warmth and self-assurance that came through even in her brief run on the site. Her dating philosophy was charmingly confident: she once described deciding a guy would like her, and it simply happening. She shared a detailed chicken lasagna recipe that sparked a minor culinary debate when dgiaimo balked at jarred tomato sauce and forrestina pushed her to make a fresh one. She wrote poetry — a journal entry called "cold november" about finding peace after leaving a bad relationship — and she could hold her own in the "who matures faster" gender debates without taking the bait. When fivezero told her to just forget the guys and dance, she was already planning to do exactly that in her new red dress.

eZabel Personality Type: ESFP — "The Red Dress." With 11 comments across just two months of real activity and a Social Butterfly badge for sharing threads with 46 different members, Nancy burned bright and brief. She came to dance, share recipes, and speak her mind — and that is exactly what she did.
