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.

I noticed Scarleteyes's avatar disappeared. Are they still here, or no?
Works That Require Cleanup of Complaining | Troper WallAnybosy know what happened to techno156?
Best advice I ever got? Keep repeating the joke till everyone is forced to laugh.
A good sign the account has been deleted is when the avatar, location, and title are all gone, and all that's left is the relationship status. That's usually a good sign someone deleted their account.
Welcome back! Sorry to hear about your family.

Is Zuxtron still here, or did they quit? Or is this just another weird glitch in the discussion tab?

Works That Require Cleanup of Complaining | Troper WallZuxtron's still around, they edited the wiki today.
Pretty sure it's just a glitch, the reviews section also likes to hide avatars.

Ah, got it. Good to know. Man this site is buggy.
Yes.

I don't know what's going on here. He didn't delete his account and his avatar wasn't deleted either.
I got a rock for Halloween.

Well, shit. Sorry to hear that.
Trans rights are human rights. TV Tropes is not a place for bigotry, cruelty, or dickishness, no matter who or their position.
