Over the years I have seen many posters names disappear into the ether. I don't post much myself but I do lurk and the number of true regular posters seems to have gone down greatly. Even the number of topics seems fewer, with many topics lasting a week or more. That did not used to be the case as there was so much going on.  I haven't seen Neverdie in a long time but then he buggered off on a boat I seem to recall. He was good for a laugh. Patsycat used to post much more regularly, Streetcowboy, Smokie, et al. I think that bookshop fellow disappeared back to the states- Ulysses Grant or something like that.  

 

 

 

I haven't seen Mig16 for a while either.

On a welding forum I had an acquaintance who vanished after a number of years of activity.  We did a bit of private messaging and a few phone calls.  He even sent me a tool one time for free.  I did a bit of searching and found:  " Investigators are describing the suspected gunman responsible for killing his wife, unborn child, one police officer, and wounding another officer early Thursday as a “violent, dangerous man...

 

Yep, that was him.  We exchanged a couple private messages about 12 hours prior to the incident. 

[Justfine]

You should have given the tool back

I'm still here, but I miss my friends.

 

Some just post much less (Villagefarang, for example), some have been banned, and others moved on to greener pastures, either figuratively or literally

 

SC

Mr.Toad and Smokie were moved on, and are both better than ever.

 

Rather than greener pastures they now frequent more mango pastures and am happy to say Fletch sees them regularly in real life and in forum Cheers

Mig is alive and well in real life. Her affliction of supporting Arsenal is still ongoing though.

Very sad to hear that Patsycat passed away. I always enjoyed her perspectives here and on other forums.

 

R.I.P, 

 

Cheers to Patsycat

Hutch should remember the character I've forgotten. He used to be a bass player in a band in Scotland and was often on any music thread slagging off nearly every band and singer except the country singer George Jones and The Byrds. I can't remember his name but I've noticed he's stopped posting. Trans will remember him for sure.

What was his name?

Do you mean Possum1931 ?

 

Whatever happened to ElGordo or Khon Kaen Dave ?

That's right Andrew. I see the possum is still active, just not posting on the music threads. Not surprising really.

Khon Kaen Dave's last post was in August. It seems he had a few run- ins with Jingting  who's very pc so he might have changed his name or gone over to the other website which has the advantage of no pc. Its downside though is abuse from idiots.
