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.

I'm glad you'll be able to come back, Spainy! :D

Chances are, I'm not actually wearing any pants right now.

Yay! Things would not be the same 'round these parts without Spain, that's for sure.

I think that from tomorrow I'll be absent for a few days or until I can afford that Norton(gone on Online Backup after December -crash).

On the ligher side, less excuse not to study a bit more.

Yay! The only person apart from me who can banter with Kino is back!

It's not exactly naive. And it can happen. But it's tough. And definetly worthwhile.

Well no one else tries hard enough. It's a bit like lancing a particularly nasty boil. You can't half-ass it.

Hey, I can banter with Kino in German. That's a whole new level. I don't know how much of it he understood though (I don't know how good his German is, or necessarily how much sense I was making [lol]).

Oh and welcome back Leradny, good to see you here once more

Well gee, this is more of a welcome than I thought I'd ever get. Y'all are embarrassing me.

But you're awesome, Lera. I suggest you accept it.

@Sunshine Werewolf: My German is pretty basic; stopped learning when i realized most of the women there spoke English.

@Leradny: Miss me?

That's a fact that always amuses me. Same goes to how everyone spoke Spanish when I went to Miami.

It's like she never left, ladies and gents.

You can't even write racist abuse in excrement on somebody's car without the politically correct brigade jumping down your throat!

I dread to ask what things you mean. So I won't.

Thanks JHM! I didn't realize my posts stood out in any way.

Hush Wicked. The grownups have to talk now.

Anyway you're the one who's staying on the subject, Kino.
