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

Eddie disabled custom titling troper handles on the forum. Mods couldn't see it, and in any event it didn't fix the underlying problems, such as the URL of your troper page and your name for PM's, article history, etc.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Because Eddie disabled it. That's how. As mentioned a post above me.
That's annoying... and I don't have any other computers to make that exact name. :/
Quest 64 threadChanging your name to an entirely different one is probably what was disabled, not slight changes like a Hyphen, etc.
Quest 64 thread-shrugs- I thought the system not changing the hardcoded name was more of an intentional thing.

Now using Trivialis handle.Eddie did it earlier today. It was never intended that you be able to rename yourself via the custom title system.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"/shrug
Maybe once, but it turned out to work pretty horribly.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Save for one person.
But on another tangent, if Irene is still an actual separate username, would I still be able to use it?(with a password reset, of course)

I asked this question once here
, and this is what I was told:

Now using Trivialis handle.Testing...
Well, the formatting for my name is still right, so that's good news for me at least.
Sorry Irene, but you can still make a new "Irene" handle unless I do it first!!!.

Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.I can't make the handle if it already exists.
And I can't make it on any of my computers because I ran out of IP Addresses. I have extra names for certain things. Like one is for a specific roleplay, etc.
Quest 64 threadDamn.
Well, maybe you can make one that looks similar? Like maybe "I Am Irene" or something?
EDIT: Just reread and understood better. That sucks.

Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.I think you misunderstood. I cannot make any more handles whatsoever. Unless Irene is an already made handle, which I could get a password reset for, I am forced to use this(or my other two names respectively).
That's what it is and eh. I'll live.
Quest 64 thread
Yeah, edited in my sympathies above.
ON TOPIC POST: After tomorrow, I shall be gone for the rest of the month until September 2nd or 3rd, as I'm going on a cruise with my friend and most likely will have no internet access.
So, yeah, basically:

Yeah, but right now you're displaying Hydronix both for me and Abstract.
