Not only that, but it suddenly dawned on me not too long ago that somehow or other I seem to have become one of the old timers...

spawn is a good correspondent and I expect she'll be back eventually, but in the interim her rest is well-deserved...

Oh guys, I'm really touched by the fact that not only did some of you notice that I haven't been around, but it would seem that a few actually missed me, too.
Well, even though I wanted a break, I can honestly say that I've missed you, so I do intend to be a bit more active in the future, whether you like it or not.

Hi!
So I've come back after a long absence/lurk period (college makes one so busy!) and noted that Glirdy and Fea noted my absence back in August! Shame on me! *waves to everyone* I'm thinking maybe I'll pump some life into the CbC Sil discussion, since Aiwendil seems to be doing a lovely job of modding it but no one's posted in a few days. It'll get me reading the Sil again, at any rate.

Terribly flattered at those of you who claimed to miss me - thank you, high praise to know I've been missed And for once, that was a statement totally sans sarcasm. Just wondering through anyway, and thought I'd drop by my acknowledgement of the warm happy feeling you've bestowed upon me...
Seriously, all pompous language aside, that was really lovely to find. Thanks

I know it’s bad of me to say it as they could be big pains at times but I Miss Gimli son of Gloin and NN10 They made me laugh and cry at the same time.
My all time favourite poster was Gandalf who disappeared in 2002 I forget his full Forum name.

I finally remembered it was Gandalf the White, I first followed him here from M T. I also have not seen one white tree here for a long time; did she change her posting name? and the last one for today Zifnab.
What ever happened to the Downs memorial picture that we made years ago? the one listing all the old downs members..I think i had it once hosted on bigpond site but with a new pc and a dif web host not sure if it is still in the same place.

I miss Envinyatar. I know it has been quiet on the RPG threads but I don't think he has been here this year.... .

There's so many people who used to be active but are away (for different reasons, some known, some unknown to me and who have been for periods of different length) or very inactive and I miss them.
Come back spawn, Nilp, Valier, Naria, Jenny, Ang and Roa! And Eonwe, Wilwa, Fordim, malkatoj and tar-ancalime too. (I know some of you have just too much RL stuff going on right now and some others might have lost interest with this forum or don't feel home at here anymore, but...) And then there's a bunch of 'downers who I only see around in livejournal these days. I wouldn't mind seeing them actively posting here.

Why did you not mention me Lommy?
I hope that I atleast was amongst the LJ downers. . . Anyways I know how you feel about all those who you mentioned. . . .I still hope that some might return, but I am feeling quite confident that 2 of them won't. |

The day before yesterday I spent time reding the Dueling Wizards ww-thread and it made me quite sad, because there were so many "lost" people playing and they were so great, for example Gurth the Good Wizard...

Although we had more differences of opinion than agreements, I am sorry that the Saucepan Man isn't around very much anymore. One thing we were in agreement on was the importance of Remembrance Sunday and he usually changed is avatar so that it wore a poppy with pride. That it hasn't happened this year is rather sad ...

I find it sounds ugly and is generally used by people who are unhappy about being single or unhappy about being married..... really, really hate it...

So do I, but I got a Christmas Card ( but no news) so I guess she is reasonably ok. I imagine that with 4 kids she doesn't have a lot of spare time and also has a lot of competition for the computer....

I know I'm not in the best position to say this, since I've just recently returned to the barrow myself, but I already miss Feanor of the Peredhil.

Yes, she and the phantom have been gone for a while.
Having recently read the predictions thread, I'm now wondering if there's a connection...

the phantom does drop in from time to time. The other day he gave me some rep.
