Neither TruePisces nor Verrain have been seen since the board went to subscriptions. TP told me they were just too busy (they had not been actively posting for a few months or so), so they couldn’t see spending the money.
It might depend on where Earthling got his information. After all, if the name change was announced or referred to in a thread (i.e., “I used to be so and so”), then it’s fair game to be reproduced here.
Not really that sad. A goodly number of former regs migrated to LJ during the Winter of Our Missed Content, and like Geobabe once said, it’s like a souped-up version of MPSIMS over there. Hundreds of present and former Dopers are active over there these days; it’s the same community, just in a different form.
He’s one of the Dopers that made the migration to livejournal. He’s not updated in a while as he’s been looking for work recently but otherwise, he seems to be very happy in his marriage and with his kids.
I’m in a gaming group with them. Besides LJ, I believe that they are active on Arden Ranger’s Amber board. Verrain should be getting his PhD in a few months.
Esprix, this is a warning. You are insinuating that another user has committed plagiarism, a serious matter. We are not aware that any substantive question has been raised about the provenance of Scylla’s blimp post; in the discussion elsewhere to which you apparently refer, the issue was raised and dismissed. If you have evidence indicating that Scylla is not the author (and I mean something specific, not just gossip), please send it to an admin and we will take appropriate action. If not, please be advised that baseless accusations against another user constitute libel and are grounds for revocation of your posting privileges without further notice.
:eek:
I miss him already… (but, I hope he doesn’t go)
On a lighter note: anyway to get some LJ names (or communities) where some of the leavers post as at? Grammar not being ones of me strong points. Because, not everyone uses the same names over there. I would love to expand my friends list.
