Where Are They Now?

Hi, you old reprobate!

Hi

[donttread]

I've noticed over the past year or so that several long-time members have either disappeared or greatly decreased the amount they post. This thread is designed to try to account for them and to see if we can possibly get them to come back or to post more frequently. I encourage all members to contribute to this list. I will start it:

Ravens Fan: A MOD who hasn't posted in months. He basically disappeared from the forum. Ravens Fan and I sort of knew each other from the Alyosha drama. Anyone have any idea what happened? Is he still a MOD?

Green Arrow: I'm not sure, but I believe GA is still a VIP or an Adviser or whatever we're calling it these days. I rarely see him post anymore, which is a shame, because even though I disagree with him on some issues, I've always found him to be principle and intellectual. I actually know GA somewhat, again, from the Alyosha drama. We actually hung out a little bit in Virginia. I haven't talked to him in a while though and am not sure why he doesn't post anymore.

Hal Jordan: A MOD who makes very rare appearances both in terms of posting and moderating. I assume he is busy with real life which, obviously, is totally fine. But I am sort of curious because I have always valued him as a poster and a MOD. I would like to see him around more often. And not to sound like a broke record, but he and I also met and hung out in Virginia in connection to the Alyosha incident.

Chloe: One of tPF's only younger females aside from a few others. A very likable poster who is popular with many. Barely posts anymore though. And I can totally understand why given the kind of treatment she's been subjected to by certain members. A particularly big loss for the forum if she does not return to posting like she used to.

Finderskeepers: I believe she was an older lady. I found her very likable and interesting and smart, but she stopped posting a long time ago and it was quite abrupt. Like with Ravens Fan, I am kind of worried that something bad might have happened.

Newpublius: Very smart attorney from New Jersey or New York who always brought his A game to a debate. Haven't seen him in a long time either. Very unfortunate. I felt like I always learned something from him whenever he posted.

Cthulhu: A fellow Marine veteran who I had a very weird phone conversation with - he's a smart dude and funny. He's pops in every once in a while to make a clever comment or remark, but rarely posts the way he used to. I assume he's grown tired of the forum's endless drama and trolling.

Kacper: A liberal, female attorney who swept through tPF like a logical whirlwind and then suddenly disappeared. Very unfortunate, since she was very smart, very interesting, and a worthy debate opponent.

Kalkin: A sharp albeit $#@!ly conservative who was always game for intellectual combat. And he had probably the best avatar in forum history. Haven't seen him post in months.

nic34: A thoughtful liberal who gave what he got. Also, I believe he is a native American, which is a perspective that is nice to have around. No idea what's become of him.

OGIS: A colorful, combative, often times interesting fellow who did not fit neatly into the left-right paradigm. Has been missing for a long time.

AZ Jim: An older liberal fellow with a good heart who took no crap from anyone. Hasn't been around in ages.

That's just off my friends list and the top of my head. Feel free to add and to provide whatever information you can.

Tis the way of the message board, people come in, things get old tired and polarized and others move out, more move in, things become fresh again ( sometimes)

You must be out of intensive care after this summer's fishing season.

Fishing season shouldn't be over in southern Louisiana.
