This remains my favorite SDMB rant of all time:
It was far, far too prophetic, and even to the extent he was wrong, he was very ‘ckin’ funny.
I miss Sofa_King
I missed his perspective on the non-launches of the Artemis mission.
Totally!
Trying to find somewwhere where I thought I saw something about @Bryan_Ekers dieing.
I think he was from Montreal?
Since I am not rereading this thread, a lot of these have likely been posted. Some of these dudes were likely banned - likely with some cause. I might have posted them myself, maybe in this thread.
Anyway, a list might include:
@Polycarp
@Una_Persson (still here?)
@Zenster
@Handy
@Scylla
@matt_mcl (still here?)
@OpalCat
@TubaDiva (the truth is out there)
@Johnny_L.A (?)
…
Um… Hello?
Hmmmmmm. Maybe this works better than I thought…? Let’s try this.
Dear Missed Connections:
You: Attractive, fit blonde woman wearing yoga pants riding Subway, reading Return of the Straight Dope. Nice smile.
Me: Muscular dude with beard, wearing ripped jeans, red shirt and leather coat.
Um… hello ?
Oh. Never mind.
How are you in yoga pants?
There are many types of attraction. Meet my friend Johnny LA!
Una’s long gone.
As is Opalcat. Hard to imagine anyone missing that one, but I guess it could happen.
@Polycarp - Passed away.
@Una_Persson - No longer participates.
@Zenster - Banned.
@Handy - Banned.
@Scylla - No longer participates.
@matt_mcl - No longer participates (I think just that).
@OpalCat - Passed away.
@TubaDiva - Passed away.
@Johnny_L.A - No longer in L.A.

[Checks pulse]
Nope.
Ah. 
Well, I mean, good, and everything, of course.
But is that @Bryan_Ekers posting, or the cat, posting as Bryan? In these days of identity theft, one can’t be too careful.
Bryan needs a blue check
That will be $8, please.
