I think lurker would be more like it. I sometimes wonder how many of the "Old School" members come by to lurk but never drop in. On occasion one will pop in like Oner and LaLLi80, make a post or two, and then disappear again.
Because you're a shadow who's no longer here in spirit. The other possibility is that one of the Admin Zombies turned you.
he went for a midnight walk April 2011 & somebody gave him a ride to our local hospital. he told the staff there that I had committed suicide so he was a bit surprised I was alive when I saw him there. that is why i say I am a ghost as he wanted to do me in as he says I gave my mother flesh eating disease which she died of complication 2 weeks to the day she went in. I preferred having my mother alive & him dead as he was loosing it upstairs & he & I had a couple of physical interactions that mom knew about 1 of them when she was still at home.
Ghost of Afterdawn Present. Here to warn you not to let time pass you by and lead you away from all the good memories.
First round of drinks is on whoever was here longest by my calculation then whoever comes next up to the end of 2004 My idea, my rules
20 Years for me in December those were the days well before everyone got lazy including myself and used youtube to learn. First ever pc i purchased from Time Computers windows 98. Was the worst pc i ever owned from that point on learnt to build me own and have ever since.
I'm currently pc bashing a Lenovo ThinkCentre small form quad core i5 3.2ghz to fit into a Compaq mid tower case so I can have 2 usb 3 ports on the front plus 4 in the back never mind the 2 usb 2 ports in the back & 2 in the front. motherboard in the tower & been powered up to make certain it works as had to get a 14 pin to 24 pin motherboard power adapter to use a regular atx PSU. currently modifying the front usb 3 module & a removeable front panel to fit together.
It seems one of our missing 20 year membership buddies, Praetor, made an appearance on Computer Forums on Nov 1, 2022.
I think many of us left for a time, because like almost everyone we have friends and family on Facebook. The problem with social media sites such as Facebook is it's a free-for-all that lacks focus on areas of specific interest. AD fills that void and offers an escape from Facebook. Besides, someone has to provide a little company for ddp.
don't need company as I have my cats & kittens plus keeping busy cleaning up over 140+ sets of Booklet of General Plans of US Navy ships.
