Originally posted by Tybaltus As I said, Ive done my research. Yeah, I saw that post. Ive pretty much looked closely at the demise of SS, DP, AR, NeK, and Baasie. The stuff continues to interest me. I wish I knew some of them, though.
Yeah. As a person who likes history, I dont like to ignore the past. So were there any members you wish were still around and didnt make the fatal mistake to get them banned?
I lived most of them. SS got a bit annoying now and then. Baasie was before I registered here, but when I lurked around Gamebanshee, back in December 2000. DP: I don't know what's happened with him. I feel really bad for him (not because of getting banned). . I liked Nekro, I don't know what he did, but it was something racist. I'm not sure. Otherwise I thought he was a pretty cool guy. I wish he were still here.
I think DP overall, well while he was still around, had the most posts, because he a few thousand as Melosh Tar, and few thousand as Darkpoet. But now Weasel and Sleep have gone beyond that mark.

Originally posted by Tybaltus I thought Kayless and Kam were friends with AR. Hmmmm....maybe I need to do more research. He wasnt that bad was he?
I liked AR well enough, though admittedly he could be a bit crude and didn't know when to rein it in.
Originally posted by Rob-hin But I mostly miss SS.
I liked her. But she had the habit to get into some heated arguments, if I can call it like that. It got her banned.
Fiery lass, wasn't she? I miss her most of all the exiled posters.
Originally posted by Rob-hin For instance, she got all mad when someone said something to here like this: @ss. If you read it in the way she read it, it spells a part of the human body. But I don't think anyone ever read it like that.
Let me play Devil's Advocate and say that I read it that way too. I always thought it was a thinly veiled insult against her and she had every right to be annoyed. But that's just me (and her).
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
hehe, hey! that list is discrimitory toward lurkers! I dont think i've gotten over 100 posts yet, but I have been on the board a good time longer than some of those ppl.
It's pretty easy, I mean just go kill a dragon, get laid.

243 by this post. And you've been around almost as long as me too.
Up until about a month ago I was a pure lurker too. Now I'm on a list of regulars. What a strange turn of events.
There are 10 types of people in the world - those who understand binary and those who don't. I think I think, therefore I might be.
Originally posted by ThorinOakensfield I liked Nekro, I don't know what he did, but it was something racist.
This is only speculation, but I think he posted links to porn sites. I think T', Weasel and Buck quickly noticed and Buck was quick and correct to give him the boot. Shame that one does something stupid enough to get themselves banned like that.
@/-\lastor and Vinin Yeah, you guys are right. You 2 definetly should have been included on the list, but Im sure that its hard for one person to create such a list and not miss anyone.
“Caw, Caw!” The call of the wild calls you. Are you listening? Do you dare challenge their power? Do you dare invade? Nature will always triumph in the end.

and I swear, although this member doesn't seem to be showing up on the advanced search or anything, she was a member here, 100% sure, by the name of Loner72. I'm sure there was a member here by that name.
Like CM...(Remember Fas ) Loner became scully1 after Buck change the forum.

Also, dare I say, I miss Waverly and FoulDamnlongwords/WitchKing (I know he's been around recently, though). They are quick witted, intellegent guys, and we had lots of fun. I know Weasel will agree.
Oh, and I think you missed Saigo in the list.
Where's Armadin gone?

That is because I am a *posting* Lurker. I "only" have 5K+, Compare that to all the others that have been here almost 2 years.
(see I didn't even make the list for "longest" GB person - although I think only 3-4 active people have been here longer - how is that for a lurker )
As previously mentioned in the why I'm leaving forever form. I'm now living in a shack in the middle of a forest somewhere in Australia. I am amoungst the oldest members and have only got so small a post count because I used to only post in game help....yada yada.
No regular internet access means only passing shots. Currently on-line at my parents just visiting for the weekend.

Leave SYM now and come to the nirvana that is unonline (with bunnies of course).

I see myself as a posting lurker too.
Though I'm getting more and more drawn to the dark side.
I liked Nekro, I don't know what he did, but it was something racist. I'm not sure. Otherwise I thought he was a pretty cool guy. I wish he were still here.
Yeah, he was a cool guy.
Didn't he suffer from depressions? Or am I mixing up some people...?
But now Weasel and Sleep have gone beyond that mark.
Don't forget Georgi, who has passed the 10k mark too! 10042 posts at the moment.
Has there been a congrats topic yet?

I think there was, but she made 10,000 posts, then immediately went to Australia, so there wasn't much of a party (it's hard to throw a celebration when the guest of honour isn't there). She's been sighted on an irregular basis since.
Personally, I think she's masterminding an Australian insurrection to take over the world. She's enlisted Aegis to help her by smokescreening and getting everyone to think that the real threat is from the Canadians, but it's truly the Aussies we need to worry about, not the Canucks.
