Post subject:  Pondering how many people have gone MIA or have left
I was just going though the member list and was amazed at just how many people have actually left since about 2004 till now, this is by far not a complete list just people that had the highest number of posts, indicating they were most active:

Ender
Rick Mead
Coke
Kemper/Harley Nuss
Silence
Orion_Blastar
PHX
Traitor
Snow White
Jester
Fork
MisBehavin
Slim Shady
Vulcan
GodZilla
Runaway Proton
Wildstar
Speed Demon
Kavanagh
Vader
Bone Collector
LoCuTiS
Xentropy
Earth
Daniel_E_Higginbotham
Psion
Doctor Who
Grazhoppa
Zarkahn
Father Cajone
Strider_2001
Stockton
Boss
Draconis
Bethel Hues
Drwakko
Cherokee
Wotok
Tradewarrior55
River Rat
Zoso
Rofellos
Steel Magnolia
The WABBIT
Animal
Maniac
Col Sanders
superman
JP

Then of course Vulcan took at least Godzilla, Runaway Proton, and maybe a few others (?) with him to his own forum which from the looks of it appears to be on the verge of a ghost forum itself, only seeing mostly game rebangs posted by none other then the Sage himself, with a couple of posts each week by Parrothead, most without replies to them.

This a list of people that haven't posted or who don't play TW anymore?

No people that have left EIS forums, only one that might be wrong so far is Vader, looks like he just went stealth instead.

Some people here seem to need to work on their reading comprehension a little more along with their game play and focus a little less on finger pointing and assumption. lol.

This post was to prove a point, and guess what it worked just as I thought it would... in fact it worked much better then I through it would.

List is far from being complete, or even correct.

This Post proves a point.

I guess we all can't be up on the curve, once again see above post and repeat as necessary:

Traitor hasn't left the forum, he lurks. Ender is Daniel_E_Higs so that's a dupe, Zark hasn't left, Wildstar lurks occasionally, Vader still lurks, Stockton finished school and works but I occasionally run into him on ICQ, and he talked about the forum. Maniac still lurks, Earth is on the other forum, Loc still lurks when he's not working. I have atleast half of those people on ICQ... if we had a really good game I'm sure I could pull some back.

There are quite a few you're missing tho, hit Crusher's site for a list.

"Or maybe you're just wrong, lol."

Sure, or perhaps you are in fantasy land, where "lurking" is equal to being an active member within the forum.. which is now by all appearances less then six people.

But yet, again, see above post and keep repeating, and here is where the tricky part comes into play I know, until you actually start to comprehend that fact of the matter which is actually being conveyed. Man such juvenile rebuttals, I am currently wondering, why am I even bothering.

You didn't make that stipulation, all you said is that they had left. Many of them haven't left, they just got turned off by all the smack crap and stopped reading as often.

Zang....
This is Maniac, here that would like to make a challenge to you and a corp of however many you want to lose with.

I suck at playing Trade Wars and could still beat you and your corp at any edit you choose using my enemies or even other corpies that hate me and my lack of key time or drunkeness at keys mistakes.

So I hereby throw down the gauntlet.... Your choice of edit, your choice of server, only thing you don't get to choose is who decides to join up on either team. If you get stuck with you and a bunch of newbies I really don't give a rats Butt I think I can still beat you with me and a bunch of newbies.


Zang the the challenge has been made.... now if you decide to decline this challenge you are showing your true colors.... (like the yellow stripe down your back).

Will try and decipher the BS that this post will most likely stir up.
Maniac.... Mugged at SD at least once per week.....
