The Way We Were
All forums start off good, enjoy a "honeymoon period" in which they continue to be good, and then steadily decline… from the point of view of each individual observer.The Fishbowl: Charles' Rules of Online Forums
I see similar phenomenon all over with schools, companies, governments, societies, etc, a widespread perception that everything was better in the past and that things are sliding toward malaise. I think it comes from how forgetful we all are.

Honey during the honeymoon only lasts for that one moon.
Would honey taste the same if every moon was a honeymoon?
