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.

He retired after giving ownership of the site to the new admins. He goes by eyebones now and comes here sporadically.

Best advice I ever got? Keep repeating the joke till everyone is forced to laugh.Hey I'm not feeling too good so I won't be as active on here. See sig.
Guys how cool would it be if Super Megaforce had a green ranger...Best of luck to you Wafer. Hope you feel better soon.
Works That Require Cleanup of Complaining | Troper WallHaven't seen Chico The Parakeet at all in the last couple of weeks. I suppose that's a good thing here as he often say things that cause concern as it could be a sign of getting the help he needs. Hope he does so.
CG for shortChico was forum suspended because the concerns regarding their posting behavior piled up and they kept posting about certain topic even though people told them stop multiple times. They haven't logged into the site since they got suspended (7/29) but hopefully they are doing well.

Macron's notesYeah, he deleted his account. I believe he said that he was going to take an indefinite break from the site.

Macron's notesThat's sad. Katsuro was very helpful in ATT. Ah well, if taking a break is making him happy then all the better for it.

"CHICKEN JOCKEY!"Okay I'm back!
Also I did not notice what happened to Michael Katsuro because I was focusing on sending my previous post here. So sad that he left. He helped me with my grammar, so I hope he is doing well.
"CHICKEN JOCKEY!"On a related note, did Primis delete their account? Haven't seen them in a while and their avatar is gone.
Works That Require Cleanup of Complaining | Troper WallThey deleted their account back in May of this year. However. people are still getting herald messages from them so we'll have to ask the admins to remove their herald status at some point.
Macron's notesHow was XFllo doing? I haven't see them since last year.
