Absent people

Go To

This is a thread for people who will not be or have not been on the site for a while, whether due to real life or to resist an internet addiction, the latter of which is encouraged within reason. Also, talk about the benefits/whatever of taking a day or a weekend off, or things to do when not online. TV Tropes ruining your life is nothing to be proud of.

Generally, expect the following from this thread:

  1. People announcing their departure or return.
  2. Moderators announcing a significant forum ban — not trolls or vandals, but someone people will notice and miss.
  3. Inquiries about an absent troper.
  4. Responses to inquiries about an absent troper.

Gonna take a short break, around a week or so.

Nothing serious, just need to learn more and organize my thoughts on some subjects before posting further.

I'm a (socialist) professional writer serializing a WWII alternate history webnovel.

I'll be taking a relative break from the site for about a month until I finish my current graduate school semester. I'll still be around sometimes but I won't be posting as much due to focusing on homework and exam preparations.

I might as well mention that I realized recently I've been less active lately (both as a mod and as a user) due to the spring allergy problems I previously mentioned here a week ago.

Edit from two days later: It turns out I've got a sinus infection now (mentioned here); I'm taking antibiotics for it.

Probably going to take a long break from the site, partly due to overall decreased motivation and partly because I just don't feel like I'm welcome here.

Might end up being absent for part of tomorrow. My household's internet service provider just let us know that they're going to shut off our internet access at some point tomorrow for maintenance, but didn't say anything about how long the outage will last or what time it'll be at.

It could be for just a few minutes, but if it ends up being several hours, well...

Cold turkey's getting stale. Tonight I'm eating crow.

If you don't see me in a while, that's because I'm dealing with personal stuff atm.
