Users you miss
Unfortunately it's extremely common that someone sees something and never bothers to report it, and sometimes even makes uncharitable assumptions about the mods because they assume we can monitor everything and, if it's up, it must be because we approve (or even agree) with it. So, a reminder: people are specifically invited to PM Sedai or myself about anything questionable they see, or even just to ask! I know a lot of mods take that kind of thing as an inherent act of defiance, but we don't. We invite all questions or comments on that, provided people are willing to hear us out on any explanation for why something might not meet the standards of removal.
Unfortunately I think that, too--getting used to a new community's rules and standards--is something that causes a lot of "refugee" forumers to bounce off of a place like this (but really, it would happen with almost any new forum). If someone's coming from a relatively small, insular, tight-knit group that had really clear norms and was pretty homogeneous in its attitudes, any place that's even a little more pluralistic (yes, even to those people, whatever that term means to each individual) probably feels intolerably permissive.

Sexy Celebrity (he was the most entertaining user here I always found his antics really fun, I remember back when I lived in the US and at work people were shocked about Trump in 2016, then I said "well I know a gay guy in the internet who likely voted for him" my friend replied "interesting you are talking to a gay guy on the internet ")
MarkF (RIP)
Zotis (I know he is banned, but he still follows me in some other sites)
Swan
Camo (banned as well, he was kinda obnoxious but an interesting guy)
Godoggo (took me like 3 years to notice her username reads as "Go Dog Go")

Also, I remember another one:
AboveTheClouds I loved his taste in metal. Although I saw that he posted in 2022, it was like 4 posts.

This was quite awhile ago. And he didn't specify who or where he had found the post that upset him. I don't remember what thread it was in.
He's active on Letterboxd, btw.

I briefly chatted with Rockatansky sometime ago, and he said he might not return to this forum. I don't think he'd want me sharing his reasons though.
He's active on Letterboxd, btw.

I’m not sure it was the reason, and may have been a coincidence, but the timing fits.
This site isn’t for everybody, which is a shame.

Thanks for mentioning me in here. I'll be back when possible, but my mother-in-law fell down a flight of stairs and broke her femur. She also hit her head which caused dementia and memory loss. I've been very busy taking care of both her and my father-in-law.
Unfortunately my father-in-law wasn't feeling well today, so we're in the hospital ER right now, waiting for test results. So far, all they know is that he has an irregular heartbeat, but they don't know why yet.
He's been resting while here, and he says he's feeling better than he felt earlier today, so hopefully that's a good sign.
I miss chatting with all of you, and I hope to be back online soon.

I definitely miss Mark, that's as obvious as food and water to survival.
I miss Godoggo also.
And I miss Destiny. She was gold.

I don't know the majority of the people being mentioned obviously but I do miss Rockatansky. And Wooley not posting as much. Takoma will probably be back around hopefully. And I'm glad Death Proof eventually showed up. Missed him from the Corrie. Pretty sure he was also at RT/GD.
