Got to being a bit nostalgic for my earlier days in this forum and a particular forum member that was particularly entertaining in those days. Then I realize that it has been ages since I've seen this person post anything. So, I look up their name in the Memberlist only to find out that it has been 2 years and 7 days since they last posted. This got me to wondering where they went and also if I wasn't the only person who has noticed a member of our little world here has dropped off the map. To get to the point: I made this thread in order for current members to file ProgArchives' missing member reports, maybe get some answers as to where they've gone, and maybe even encourage members-in-hiding to reappear.

Anyone know where Henry Plainview went? Been 2 years and 1 week since he last posted... the day before Miley Cyrus' 20th birthday. Coincidence?

I too miss people, though I have little to report about them-- James (Gecko), great person and a lot of fun; Assaf (avestin), one of the finest PA collabs ever and a helluva guy; Ricochet of course; Lee (Man Erg), probably our most knowledgeable member at the time and an honor to work with. And where's Easy Livin and Tony R ? We miss you guys! Guigo too, though I see him occasionally. Nice to have Raff and Micky around.
I think there's thread much like this one somewhere. |

Don't know where they are but Easy Livin hasn't posted since May and Tony R has been postless since October 11. Tony R has the most posts in PA history, btw, with 1,001,942. Say it only took a minute to make each post that would equal just a bit shy of 2 years of actual time spent posting.

I talk to Plainview quite often, and used to spend hours with him playing League of Legends of over Skype.
I'l say this. It hasn't been 2 years since his last post.

^^ I think Tony's postcount is a gag, he is a retired Admin after all; only a Jedi could have erased those files

In know that Easy Livin' (Bob) retired from P.A.
There was an announcement of that back some time ago. I avoided the Forums for most of the earlier years so not familiar with older collabs. |

I remember the announcement but I took that to be his retirement from Admin, not PA. But you could be right. |

Same feelings I get, thinking back to the "glory days" and where everyone is.
From what I gather, most just get burnout or busy with life. Which are the reasons I scaled back myself/am gone for weeks on end sometimes.

I thought this thread was for people looking for actually missing members, such as in: "Lost left arm in a car crash last week-end. Thick skinned, with a lot of hair and a "Genesis forever" tatoo. Huge award for anyone bringing it back".
My bad. |
