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.

Hopefully I'm going to be more active again soon; the show I was in just ended, and I'm catching up enough on my studies. (Not to mention that finals are coming up soon and then I'm basically free all summer.)

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

Well, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'll be out for almost the entire month of May. Big release for Ordeal Call IV in Fate/Grand Order means I'll have to avoid the pages for spoilers, plus I have a big translation project on my hands, and even if that wasn't an issue, I'll be out on vacation for a couple of weeks after that. I'm sorry I had to say this, but I hope I can come back soon!

Eh, good enough.

Good news is that I managed to finish the chapter far earlier than I expected, so I'll come back here for a few moments before heading into vacation.

Eh, good enough.

The_Dag was supposed to host round 112 of the Elimination Game round, but were nowhere to be seen after the end of last round, and their last post was two days ago. Any idea what happened to them?

I was in the middle of a Wiki Walk and found out that nombretomado deleted her account. This was due to that thing we can not talk about?

IIRC I think she left on her own accord for personal reasons.
