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 here, off and on. I haven't had as much time to spend on TVT over the past few months. I might get the chance to be active again soon though.

If y'all were wondering where I went for the past few months, I'm mostly residing in HGS and its spinoff RP ASAS. I've been trying to get back to the other Forum Games, but due to my wonky sleep schedule and other things that have been happening both online and IRL, I haven't yet. But don't worry, I'll try my best to be more active there again.

I still keep in touch with her over Discord, she hasn't really said anything about why but I imagine she lost interest in the community here over the smaller conclaves that've formed for groups on Discord. I know a few other tropers in my circle have given similar reasons and that's personally a big part of why I haven't really been around much here aside from roleplays.

I'm alright. Between being busy with college and personal reasons I've more or less just been appearing just for roleplays here, though I still lurk in a few certain threads.

I just realized that this thread is over a decade old. This might sound meta to the threadm but I wonder whatever happened to the OP of this thread?

Oh wow, they're one of the people I really liked back then, I think.

Whenever I go back to the OP of a megathread and see someone who's probably long gone, I think of a very popular thread we had to delete for ad-friendliness, but years after the OP had been banned.
