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.

[up][up] ...But... But... It has male strippers!

[up] I dunno. I haven't seen it, yet, but, even if it's terrible, I'm not going to see it to see a good movie, I'm going to see it to see male strippers.

Goddamnit, Tendo, you'll remember me if you try hard enough. Maybe you'll recognise this image:

Moerin, Raineh Daze and AnnoR have been forum banned for repeated misbehaviour in the RP subforum. They've been warned a bunch of times, and some of them have had previous suspensions. The lessons didn't stick, so they're out.

Bear! We thought you had abandoned us!

So, how's it going?

Moerin, Anno R and Raineh Daze: Favoritism in a game they were running, most recently. Before that, repeated instances of trying to drive posters they didn't like out of games, favoritism, and general unnecessary-drama-generation.

I thought that was the case. I remember an old instance of it. Thank you very much for the information.

@Lu: About the same, but now I'm in a place where it never gets cold which is supposed to be a good thing according to that Fastball song. And have you always been capitalized?

EDIT: Wait, now you're not. Or I was seeing things. Which is probable.

@cute: Anyone I'd know?

Thank you for the welcome back, and I know you, DC.

You can either be reassured or frightened by that statement. Your choice.tongue

I'll be frightened, since that's my standard operating procedure.

If I remember correctly, the grapevine said you were working on a new business making Civil-war style suits? How's that going?
