> If we’re counting one-offs, which we seem to be, Hugo & Nebula award winning author John Varley posted in a thread about of one of his books. I’m sure it was him - I emailed him from his website asking him the question that was raised in the thread, including a link to the thread - he emailed me back with the answer, then created an account and posted the same answer in the thread.

Can you find that link? I’m a squealing Varley fanboy myself.

Supposedly Jim Butcher, of _Dresden Files_ fame, lurked and posted some time ago.

Different sort of prominence, but Abby Winters, founder of the eponymous amateur porn site, posted here for a while.

Awesome! And very unexpectedly gross; I knew there was a reason I didn’t much care for _The Golden Globe._ But cute that Varley thinks we’re nuts, like him. 🙂

Well, if that counts, my name is in the credits to the first Lego Star Wars game.

More seriously (but still in the same vein) long departed\* poster **solgrundy** wrote most of the script for the third _Monkey Island_ game.

\*He’s not dead, he just doesn’t post here any more.

Well, as I understand it, the person who founded the “Abby Winters” porn site posted here for a while. But IIRC it is highly probable there is no “Abby Winters” as such, that was just a persona used by a man to sell his porn website as if it were female run.

Oh and @guanolad worked for that website for a while I think so he may know more, although whether he can give away any secrets I don’t know.

I’m active on Twitter and know that MSNBC editor Hayes Brown had an account here as a teen back in the 2000s.

Put it this way. In the “official history” you can read on the website, most of what was ascribed to her was actually done by me. But I am not, and never have been, her.

Meanwhile, the current owner of Abbywinters is rich, while I am not.
