Wow.

A lot have kinda gone missing.   :buggedout:

I had a close online friend for seven years, and one day he "quit" the internet, more or less. He was unhappy with his job situation and had health issues and family problems. He was looking for new directions in his life, and part of that new direction was abandoning the internet.
Another close friend of many years (we never met personally but talked on the phone and exchanged movie gifts) suddenly burned bridges with everyone from our circle of online friends with no reason given. We first thought her computer was hacked or something. We found out later that she had terminated accounts and started new accounts using a different name. We thought that was odd behavior, and did a little research. We found old blogs she had deleted when we became friends, she kept it a secret from us that she was divorced and raising a daughter.
People have their reasons to leave. We may not always understand why though.

Oh yeah, how could I forget Mr. Briggs Inc.??

I'm sure there are plenty we forgot to name. Just because we did not remember you does not mean you are forgotten! Well, maybe it does, but only in the most literal way, by definition.

I had a poster 40 years ago- just like this: 

If you want to view paradise . . . simply look around and view it!

Who was Mr. Briggs Inc?  I'm trying to remember who he is but am drawing a blank.

He's one of the posters above us - he changed his name.  :wink:

Going WAY back, I miss Brother Ragnarock.

I miss Psycho Circus (CircusCircus aka Chris) and Flickjames

JaseSF

Agree with all those mentioned (Ghouck, CheezeFlix, Doggett, Circus, Raffine, Susan, Flick James - there's also Killer Bees, Saucerman, Paula, and a few others who come to mind)

I miss Chadzilla but that also goes back to the old Scifilm board. Miss a lot of people from that site too (IronWolfe, Greg K., Victoria Silverwolf, evilskippy, Andrew K., etc.).

Paula was a lot of fun. Shame she didn't stick around longer.

Paula is still one of my Facebook friends.  However, she doesn't seem to post very often and she and we never correspond with one another.

Not that I miss him, but I see no one has mentioned Wyre Wizard. I have to give him credit for one thing. For a troll, he did come across as being more intelligent than the average troll, which, unfortunately, infest the world wide web.
