I am looking at my cat, sitting on the windowsill and throwing his head left and right being angry at the glass blocking his movement, and I ask:
Ubi sunt qui ante nos fuerunt?
I am a faithful lurker for 6 and half a year. I remember people coming and going, I remember having years long breaks from DROD, I remember how awful my English was back then (not that it is perfect now, it's just that I am so far happy with it).
Maybe it's just because of their rank points, their avatars, or the sheer fact that they were awesome, but some people I respected and thought are integral part of this community are not posting on the forum any more. I may not have the authority to ask this question and stay alive, especially that I never was a really contributing user (with all of my failed projects for which I feel ashamed even today
) and I never knew those guys better than others... But my curiosity gets better of me, so what happened to those people (I will now enumerate)?
Starting with ErikH2000, from what I remember, left DROD to work on a project related to safe purchasing, or was it "
purchasement"
of stuff manufactured in a survivable environement. I can't now find post with his official leave, but I am still wondering how does he manage after all this time away from us?
What about others, 'shroomer
agaricus5? The first guy I remember getting the
don't ask award silver? (remember to type his name with first letter non-capital) The one eyed tar blob
eytanz? Game on guy,
Oneiromancer? What about
The_Red__Hawk, who never laughed (or was laughing at us) in the Ray Gun for Beethro thread? Alien faced
zex20913? Anyone knows anything about them worth sharing with
me the community?
Without those guys, who I remember having to try to understand my English, this forum doesn't feel the same... It's like leaving the school, except I don't miss anyone from there, yet here...
