Far better mentioned in this context than that sad thread stickied at the top of this forum!
So @Stranger_On_A_Train seems to be on hiatus again since May. I miss his posting on Science in particular.
I had noticed the same, and saw they went private with their profile. So I couldn’t beg them to come back. 
I have a question I want to ask Eve but I don’t have the contact anymore. Wish she was back.
Baker, have you tried sending her a message through the forum? It might send her an email notification. Her last post, from 2020 (after the migration), mentioned that she still gets emails. In fact that post was submitted by email.

@lissener has not been seen since this unfortunate incident.
(last post July 19,2003)
Hope it wasn’t too bad.
That should be 2023.
That had me concerned!
It’s been only two months, but for a daily (and half-decent) mutli-poster like @k9bfriender to just up and stop - sure, cocks this eyebrow, anyway.
Poked his head in a couple weeks ago.
Understandble if just looking for a break.
(feel free to scoot on back, though, a la Stranger)
Yeah, he was great.
Well, hello. Hope you’re still great!
Always love to see a returning doper.
@GreenWyvern has been missing for over a year. Very active poster, especially on the Ukraine war, and then gone. I hope they’re alright.
I wish he would come back also. Excellent poster. @GreenWyvern
He was also extremely helpful with the switch to Discourse.
any word on @panache45 ?
@Sherrerd hasn’t been around for nearly 3 months. I miss her in P&E threads and around the board.
Very pleased to see him make a few posts today .
Nothing I’ve seen. I’ve worried about him for months now.
I fear he’s gone.
yep — ozzark’s razor and so …
well fingers crossed - let’s hope for the best!
There’s someone who hasn’t been here in a very long time, but she lived in my town and has now passed away. Wish she could be here.
