Quite a lot of the kooks never actually get banned in the first place (thus making their reinstatement a moot point). I believe that **phaedrus** is one of these.

Indicentally I came across a **phaedrus** on the Darwin Awards forum a few weeks back. He was spouting very SD- **phadrus** -style prose, but denied all knowledge. Hmm.

I can’t believe that this discussion has proceeded this far without mention of **Dal\_“PLANNED\_OBSOLESCENCE”\_Timgar**. Geez, of all the one-note wonders in all the world…

He’s another that never actually got banned, mind. Just became obsolete I guess. 😃

I have to say I miss WildestBill. You just can’t buy entertainment value like that.Yes he was insane.But he was interestingly insane, in a I can’t believe he said that sort of fashion. I used to wait with baited breath for his next Thread.

Sadly, I think we may have lost this gem. I followed the link from Threadspotting a few weeks ago and came up with nada. ☹
