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 still surprised at Runic's absence.

And that of BLOODPOUCH.

For the next 2-3 weeks, I'll be limiting my posts to the anime and manga forum only since I've decided to devote more time to studying.

I'm not technically absent, but... yeah...

So that's why I haven't seen you lately.

Anyway, see you around.

Pretty much krrackknut. I think the same will go for #yackfest.

And that of BLOODPOUCH.

Same here. Not sure what's the story with BLOODPOUCH (ragequit?) but last I heard Runic was only going to be away for two weeks. Then again, Chabal 2 said he'd be away for around the same period of time, but he ended up taking a lot longer.

It is a mystery...

Yes, yes I do (being a fan of Something Awful, which has an icon with a ghost and the very small text " It is a mystery... " and its counterpart "Mystery solved." ). And I had in fact forgot about your lack of presence on the forums. We'll never gain ground if my legions of minions aren't here to support my air campaign!

Don't worry, Emperor Flanker, your most capable and knowledgeable General has returned. And I've conducted studies on some intersting new equipment during my (forced - fuckin' lightning strikes) absence.

Ah, Tzetze's gone.

That's why it seems so slow around here.

I bet he won't make it through the month

Also, g'luck Mapi. See you when you get back, maybe.
