I’m curious as to their _dropping off the boards_. There have been some highly respected posters mentioned in this thread, and I’m surprised they didn’t say “goodbye”, or “be back in a bit”. ---

wasn’t **superbee** a dude? Or am I being wooshed? On another note, I was gone for nearly two months and I’m mad as hell that no one even noticed. Hrmph! I’m takin’ my ball and going home. [sub]we’re still playing tomorrow though, right?[/sub] ---

Actually **Bella** I saw you in a thread earlier today, and thought that it was nice to see you, since I hadn’t seen you around in a bit. ---

Yep, **superbee** is in fact a dude, but I think I hit on him thinking he was a chick… And as for **Lifeonwry** if you can’t find her name anywhere then she changed it. That’s why I started an official dpoer name change thread. I’ll link it in a sec, but it would be very cool if any of y’all could add names that we’ve missed so far… ---

I remember not seeing **oldscratch** around for a very long time, then one day a few months back he popped back up. Then he disappeared again. (Oh, and I do not know how long this holds true, but I do know when I changed my own username, the first week I had done it my husband always searched under my old name, he found both my old posts and my new ones. However, it might be only a few days that that is allowed by the software to occur.) ---

Hey, **roadrunner70** 🙂 Nice to see ya. [sub] **roadrunner70** is the artist formerly known as **superbee** but he changed his name for [obvious reasons](http://www.blindmelon.com/images/otherpages/blindmelon/albumcover.jpg).[/sub] 😃 ---

Rumors of my demise are much (OK, a _little_) exagerated. I’m extremely busy these days, and don’t often have time or energy to keep up with the board. Actually, I’m flattered that anyone remembers me, as I never thought I was ‘all that’ in the first place. However, I still maintain a presence here by proxy… **Intaglio** is my wife, and she’s around reasonably often. ---

**Greg Charles** up and moved to Vietnam. What, now we’re too good for you, international boy??? [sub]Or has he posted lately without me noticing???[/sub] ---

I called out to **Redboss** and **ageless6** in that vanity search thread a while ago, but neither responded. ---

I read the thread title and immediately thought of **Mega The Roo**. She could be pretty damn funny at times. Haven’t seen her for at least a year. ---

**Tripler** was stationed to a different state, and directly after he moved he had to leave for a business trip for more than a month - can’t remember exactly how long. **ho4sara** is pretty busy with school, last I heard. ---

Now, that’s just WRONG. I typed ‘nacho4sara’ then went back to bold it and had the ‘insert’ key down. DAMMIT. Sara gets no ho. ---

I used to look forward to **Falcon** ’s posts; she dropped off the face of the earth in June 2001. ☹ ---

Well, as long as the rest of us clowns sticks around we`ll be alright. Though, I hate to see an important/popular member of a group have to be gone for whatever reason… ---

**whuckthistle** : **his4ever** changed ger name to lynne or something. **Monty** started a Pit thread about it but I am far too drunk to look for it now. ---

**TN\*hippie** hasn’t been around in ages. We were emailing and IM ing for awhile then he got swallowed up in domestic bliss. He popped back up a few months ago, but had trouble with his username, and everybody freaked out thinking he was sock. I don’t think he’s been back since. ---

I became a fan of **Squish** after my Uekte Pit thread, but I haven’t seen her around lately. \<\\> she hasn’t posted in almost a full year - 9/02/02. Anybody know what’s up?
